Up Next: Virginia Commonwealth

Re: Up Next: Virginia Commonwealth

Anybody who says 9-0 is nothing is kidding themselves. One thing a love about college basketball is it seems like anybody can beat anybody on any given night. Heck, just look at Michigan's last two games. Even the untouchable Kentucky was losing to COLUMBIA at half yesterday. Green Bay dominated at the U last week. Incarnate Word, St Peters, NJIT, E Michigan, E Washington have all beaten Big Ten teams. Yes, some games are easier than others, but if you don't come to play, bad teams can pull of huge upsets. With that said, can't look ahead. I'm super excited for this game. We keep playing the way we've been and we'll be fine.

I see the next 4 games as a very big stretch for this team. Obviously VCU and Iowa are good teams that will be resume builders, but after that South Dakota State is not a bad team by any means, and Christmas break games with a smaller crowd can be difficult, and then we go to Evansville, who has been playing very good ball.

The next 21 games will completely determine fate of the remainder of the regular season.

I was curious about Evansville, so looked it up. Their only loss, by two points, is to WI Green Bay, who has the #1 RPI in the country as of today. They also just beat a good Belmont program on the road. They'll be a team to be reckoned with.

You forgot to mention that we've had difficulties winning in Indiana in recent years.

I saw that. Some other notable teams: Wichita State (4 seed), Iowa State (5 seed), VCU (8 seed), Iowa (9 seed).
These next two games are BIG!
