Well, they're 19-3 and ranked 15th nationally.

You got schooled pretty good by Cold. Probably should have just kept silent and chalked it up to an "L".


Did I mention how incredibly bad it looks to go on "vacation" for a week after 2 BJ losses and finally show up again with your weak smack after a BJ win and WSU loss?

You look good.

No offense to Indiana State, but I think it is clear why the Shockers lost. They are a team that wins by outworking the other team, and they looked at a #15 ranking and decided they could mail in a game at home to lowly Indiana State. Just like we did when were #23 against lowly Tennessee and Evansville.

We don't win games if we don't go 100%. My only hope from this crappy game is that our players fully buy into that. We can afford a few more disappointments, but I don't want to lose another game to a team that won't make the tournament.

Also, we know a major infusion of BBIQ. Luckily, I think Marshall will find a way.

Don't look now, but it appears the race for the Valley regular season title is now a three horse race... still can't believe that the Sycamores went into Koch and beat the Shockers - have to give them a ton of credit for what they just did. IF (and that's a big if, for sure) they can sweep the Top 2 (WSU and CU) in Terre Haute - they would be in a decent position for the regular season crown (who would have thought?). Still a lot of basketball to be played, but this is shaping up to be one heck of a last half of the conference season in the Valley.

The game on Wednesday in Terre Haute should be a doozy.

When is the last time Indiana State sold out a game?

technically, it would have been the last time ServePro (local business) bought all the unused tickets and gave them away free to fans, I'd guess 2011??

Last time we had a full house crowd? Not sure?

But if we win at Drake (and that will NOT be easy, you've seen how we played @ SIU & @ ILS) then the CU game has the potential to be a 9000+ crowd and we haven't see that many people in Hulman Center for an ISU BB game in eons I'd guess.

Like when Tony Hulman was still living?

I kid, I kid. But seriously. Probably during Royce Waltman's time as coach?

I would guess either 2005 or 2006, IU played at ISU in 2005 and then Purdue played at ISU in 2006. I am almost certain the IU at ISU game would have drawn more fans than the Purdue at ISU game from 2006.
