Go Drake
- Thread starter Jimmy McGill
- Start date
They need to win tomorrow to get into The Dance. Otherwise they are looking at a 2 seed in the NIT.
Jimmy,. That game was never in doubt! Drake kept it close for ratings, only!
Big game tomorrow vs. Indiana State……lots of “powder blue” in the stands tomorrow!
Indiana St likely gets an at-large bid. So Drake stealing a bid leaves one less for a bubble team like Iowa.
Incorrect. Indiana St is in projected in on 106 of 108 brackets on bracket matrix.
Because they expect them to win the Valley tournament. If Drake beats them tomorrow they are sweating bullets next Sunday.
Then why is Drake also projected in 10 brackets? It may be close, but Indiana St is solidly on the 10/11 seed line.
Drake is just behind Iowa on most First Four out because they expect IN St to win the tournament as does the ones putting IN St in now. Go Drake!
Drake deserves to be in more than Iowa.
Go to the website. It's broken down by by at-large, other at large(such as Drake & Iowa, who are currently projected in by 10 & 9 brackets respectively), and OTHER AUTO QUALIFIERS. IE teams who won't get in without winning their conf tournament. Indiana St is making the tournament win or lose according to the experts.
IN St had a poor stretch 2 weeks ago, if that didn't happen I'd agree with you. We shall see.
It's close either way - both of them have decent resumes, tho if I recall Drake has a quad 4 loss which will hurt them.
From an Iowa perspective, I was rooting for Bradley over Drake.
Well, the Drake side of you can go suck it, at least until Goetz calls Devries to offer him the job
Yep big DeVries guy but think Fran has us in great shape so want Fran to stay but if he goes DeVries time. Win/WinWell, the Drake side of you can go suck it, at least until Goetz calls Devries to offer him the job
I don't believe a less worthy team should get in. Iowa is less worthy than Drake. I hope they can both make it. But given Fran's performance, I would rather see Drake in than an Iowa team that loses first weekend.
Indiana State's NET is 29 currently. Unlikely to change significantly with a loss. No team with a NET rankings that low has ever been left out of the tournament. They are very likely in. Drake has to win. Drake winning steals a bid on the bubble.
I expect within next 3 years to have new football/basketball coaches.
Bluder probably not that long either honestly - she's 62 i believe.
If you qualify 13th out of 14 as serviceable..... Don't coach your kids bball games
Simmer down my friend. This is a young and promising IOWA team and I can't wait to be in Carver tomorrow evening!
I'm perfectly calm....but to say Iowa's defense has been serviceable is a joke. 13th out of 14. I think Sandfort still still has his feet stuck in cement from a month ago.
