even if we had somehow won that game, the damage was done. the bright lights came on and we pooped our pants - again

Is there another team in America that is not allowed to lose? Ever?

Teams in the big 6 conf

They lose all the time. What's your point?

Sorry read your post to quickly I changed the answer I thought you said
Who could lose and not be affected sorry read to fast

Gotta win games that matter. That's all that matters. It's on the Tigers now to get it done. Don't worry about the media or seeding. Just win the games. The effort lacked tonight. It can't happen again.

Exactly right. So far, that is Pastner's legacy.

Too bad he didn't attend last Saturday's game.

That would have been an issue regardless of tonight's outcome. This loss hurts us because it brought our momentum to a screeching halt.

It does matter, because it shows we don't deserve anything better than an 8/9 seed.

Alright, but I didn't say the loss didn't matter. I said lack of quality wins was going to affect our seeding regardless of the outcome tonight. Losing tonight is MUCH closer to being a bad loss than it would have been a good win.

you sound like a victim.. President of the We-Are-Not-Victims Club

RPI back to 18 now.

Well, I say his eye test was terrible and he needs blue colored glasses

X stole our ice cream machine. Soft serve.

Looks like the Minnesota and Tennessee wins against top 10 teams keeps our RPI at 18.

Not buying this...especially since we have quite a few wins over teams that are better than Xavier- which is not a horrible loss in itself.

PERCEPTION wise, yes...but reality...no.

Poor play, especially in the first half, poor free throw shooting late and a missed wide open three, gets a narrow road loss.

Happens.

But if this game was what people really consider as the only chance at a good win...then they will be unhappy regardless.

Many dump on the team because of early losses. Which can only be fair if you then applaud them for an early win over what is looking like a pretty good utk team...now.

Sadly we are the most unique team in the country in this regard. A good program in a puke conference. Although Akron and La Tech can't lose either. Wichita St leads the valley and is on the bubble. The loss to St Louis last year is a big factor in all this, I've said it from day one.
