Im really glad it’s Houston, I can accept a loss to Houston, theyre the #1 team for a reason. But I hate Purdue, like bama and Florida level hatred, if we lost to them it would not set well with me at all
Houston hasn't played in the gauntlet. i'm sure theyre good. basketball isn't football in that regard. the teams they played are 15-25 in rankings. most games they won late season were close.

feel like that baptism by fire gives us a slight edge. again, play flat. lose.

play like we have in tourney, win.

imo the Barnes era has been disproportionately defined by these program defining wins, then head scratching losses the tourney. it's time to change that narrative.
 
Those quads encompass wider gaps than you might think. We have been playing the top 10 all season. They have played the 25 to 50 range. I’m hoping the experience against better teams gives us an edge.
March 29, 1974


Farmers in Shaanxi province, China, stumbled upon fragments of a clay figure while digging a well near the tomb of Qin Shi Huang. The farmers found life-sized heads made of red clay and bronze arrowheads, prompting archaeologists to investigate the area.

The investigation revealed a vast complex of burial pits containing thousands of terracotta warriors, horses, and chariots, intended to protect the emperor in the afterlife.

The Terracotta Army is considered one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of the 20th century, providing invaluable insights into the Qin dynasty and the life and beliefs of the first emperor of China.

This years NCAA Basketball Tournament has shown how much the portal impacts basketball more than any of the Sports. The Cinderella dream stories will almost non-exist from now on.Mainly for the fact the players that could lead a George Mason or VCU have moved onto P4 teams. The days of Steph Curry leading a Davidson team by himself is to a EE is over Ladies and Gentlemen.
 
Spreads in EE games.

Tennessee vs Houston, Houston favored -3.5
Florida vs Texas Tech, Florida -6.5
Duke vs Alabama, Duke -6.5
Auburn vs Michigan State , Auburn -5.5

Pretty obvious too with half the elite eight being represented by sec. And even though they didn't win, ole miss and arkansas showed you lower seeds could beat you on a slight off night.
