IU lives and dies with jumpshooting. They are the epitome of inconsistency because they have no reliable way of scoring. They will still make the NCAAs with ease, but they are not a threat to go on a deep run. However, they can probably take anyone out in a single game if they get hot from 3, they are capable.

Man that ACC is deep. Really deep. I can't believe the Big East went 7-2 versus such a deep conference with so much depth. Deep. Yeah, seriously, ND is 20-2 with a win over Duke and they are STILL ONLY 26th in the RPI. It's funny how RPI matters to all the talking heads when the ACC and B12 is ranked #1, but when the BE has high RPI rankings across the board, "DePaul being in 1st place means the conference stinks."

Well at least Creighton won’t be looking for there 1st conference win when we play... I know that shouldnt matter, but I cant help thinking the same thing. The one area where I think it did matter is that Creighton played a game without Zierden and we get to scout how they play without him. They basically played guards all night and jacked up 30 threes. If we defend the perimeter as we have the last couple of games, we should be okay.

Listening to Vitale bluster on last night reminded me how sweet pretty much any announcing pair on FS1 is. I had to turn the sound off.

I watched the ND/Duke game last night. It was the first time I have seen ND -- they look really good. Grant is a special player, and I'm not sure why he isn't involved in more POY discussions. The way he played last night -- I have not seen a better player in the country. ND can usually be counted on to bow out of the tournament early, but I wouldn't want for the Hoyas to be matched up with them.

We need St. John's to start winning games, only if to keep that RPI under 50.

I'm not sure there are 1,000 fans at this Colorado-USC game.
