Really wanted NWs draw

KenPom has MSU-Miami as a toss-up. Miami winning 62-61 with a 54% chance to win.

by **The_Dude** 2017-03-12, 20:13

Good news bad news...Miami is good and Kansas is really good.

One thing is they both rely on guard and wing players to score. Big teams that pound inside we just have no answer for.

by **Floyd Robertson** 2017-03-12, 20:40

So, we have a chance.

Let's go green glasses for a minute.

Anyone know shit about Vermont, Iowa St or Nevada? Is there any chance in hell that Purdue doesn't advance? Doesn't seem like it to me.

I personally don't think we'll beat Miami. Just a guess but I'd guess like 60/40 Miami. If we do, I would think we'd have a chance against Kansas. Kansas is not real big. Like 20% chance we beat Kansas. Dream scenario we make the Sweet 16.

If (huge If) we were to meet up with Purdue, I'd say like 5% chance. Just cannot match up. Granted Painter is awful but there is just a ginormous physical mismatch there that I do not believe we could overcome.

Best case scenario, everything goes right for us, we make the round of 16 and lose to Purdue.

Unless Purdue gets knocked off by one of those 3 teams....any chance of that happening? Matty?

All three of those teams are solid. Iowa State is probably the only one that can beat Purdue though

by Herbie Green 2017-03-12, 21:44

I am going on record right now and predicting MSU in the sweet 16

538 gives them a 14% shot.

Dont' know about anythign else but 14% shot is a punchers chance I guess

Purdue losing in the first round to Vermont.

by Herbie Green 2017-03-12, 22:10

MSU 8% chance of the sweet 16. If we pull this off I might have as much e-cred as when I layed my ass on the line on the RCMB for the final four in 2005.

by **MiamiSpartan** 2017-03-12, 22:28

Late game, dammit. I know Im in the minority, but I was hoping for a daytime game. I could blow off work, but I can't blow off my daughter's birthday party.

I am driving to Indy on Friday. Glad I will be able to catch the game late night. Wonder if my hotel will be full of UM, UK, etc slappies as I see Indy is a site.

Yeah, it's a night time pool party at my MIL's (even though it might be a bit cold), so no real end time.

And my MIL has no cable, no Internet, and is one of the only places in South Florida that I can't get a good LTE signal. Oh, well, real life is more important anyway. She was born the day we lost to George Mason, and I've never cared so little about an MSU loss in my life.
