  1. Let’s not forget 

     

    "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

    Thanks to Watson, Copeland, Palmer, Roby, Allen, Harris, Borchardt, Aktenan, Heiman and anyone else I might’ve forgotten for having the guts to go out there and give their all.

    Not really; they try and keep as many rematches out of the realm of possibility until the later rounds. Back in 2013, though, Creighton and Nebraska could have met in the second round. 

     

    Thats what I was thinking. I could remember a few years ago Wichita State and Kansas met in the second round in Omaha but my memory was spotty beyond that. 

  3. Up to nine brackets on bracketmatrix. Looks like Creighton is projected to be a 6/7 seed and we're looking at 11/12. Is there any precedence for two in-state teams playing each other in the first round as a 6/11 or 5/12 matchup?

    Doesn't matter if Maryland is ahead of us, because we can take care of that ourselves.

     

    We are in 5 brackets now instead of 4, so that's good.

     

    IIRC we were in eight before the weekend. 

     

    At any rate, I think the only way we are in for sure is if we win our next four games and probably two games in the B1G tourney and hopefully those two wins are over Michigan and Ohio State.

    Um this team has caught fire in almost the exact same way, like almost exactly, except they aren't going to beat Michigan state at Michigan state.  Or a highly ranked Wisconsin team.  The proof the following year was that Miles played WP out of position and that screwed the entire season. 

     

    This comment makes me think you haven't been following the team until recently

    Yeah, lets put in a pipeline in the ground over a huge underground aquifer that extends from the Nebraska/South Dakota border all the way to Texas. An aquifer that literally flows from the surface of the ground in many areas and supplies the water to rivers such as the Niobrara.

     

    Plus it'll create a 50 permanent jobs. 50! Got to create them jobs.

     

    It's a stupid idea.

    How many railroads and highways go over that same aquifer? The Ogallala is refilled by snow/rain runoff, so it is susceptible to surface contamination. So i refer to the fraser inst. study again, pipeline is safer then other methods of transport.
