#4 Duke and #7 Kansas go down

Submitted by Bambi on February 3rd, 2018 at 2:33 PM

Two big upsets so far. Kansas loses at home and Duke loses to a team without a conference win.

Who does less with more? Bill Self or Izzo? Hell, I guess even Calipari only has one title at Kentucky...

Calipari, bar none. That guy fields a team 7 or 8 deep with future NBAers EVERY YEAR and has managed to get only one title. If I was a UK booster funneling money to get these kids, I'd want a way better ROI...

Is understating it a bit. That guy should be winning titles way more often with the All Star teams he gets. It’s really quite the achievement.

Proof that coaching actually does matter to some degree, can't just throw NBA players in with no instruction

I love to see Dook lose; but hate to see Staee move into the top 4 as a result. So, who is a poor guy supposed to root for? BTW, as a guy who grew up two miles from St. Johns, they were my home team and always my favorite. Glad to see them win one like this for Louie.

Tom Izzo. I've never seen so many 5* recruits end up in the D league or outside of basketball. They get worse every year under him and "1 and dones" have to stay for 4 years to get their stock up to a 2nd round pick Bill self gets his guys into the NBA at least.

Oh, I don't think Izzo belongs in that category. He's done quite a bit at MSU, 7 final fours and multiple rape enablings.

Self. Easily. Izzo at least consistently makes Final Fours.

Self consistently recruits better than Izzo, and then come tourney time they always fall apart.

West Virginia	5-4	16-6
Kansas State	5-4	16-6

Tech is the best shot. Already won at Kansas, have Kansas and Oklahoma at home, toughest game is @WVU who's reeling.

That Kansas @ Texas Tech game could be a big one. West Virginia certainly has a shot, too. I'm not sure about Oklahoma though.

Hoosiers need to win. I'd hate to see these upsets only help MSU's cause.

Well on the flip side, if MSU keeps winning our win against them looks that much better come Selection Sunday.

21 Kentucky and 23 Florida both lost. This helps us move up a bit, despite some ho-hum wins.

Apropos of nothing, I think this may be the year Cincinnati breaks through. That team is sneaky good.
