We should have beaten those teams early in the season and couldn't make it happen. As of early Sunday before our final win of the series, our RPI was 129. If we can keep sweeping the weekend series, we could still have an outside chance of an at large bid because sometimes they account more heavily on wins near the end of the year but the most important thing now is probably to get a good seed going into the Big Ten tourney.Georgenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7363837069141383760.post-81237550754278524612009-04-13T14:02:00.000-04:002009-04-13T14:02:00.000-04:00If the Hoosiers don't win the Big Ten tournament b...If the Hoosiers don't win the Big Ten tournament because of their non conference schedule and RPI i doubt that they would get an NCAA at large bid.That would be too bad! Playing the likes of lower tier D 1 schools such as Chicago State[a joke],Hartford, Lemoyne, Central Connecticut, Morehead State[another joke], Western Illinois, IPFW[rained out],Cleveland State, Austin Peay,and Valparaiso does them not good whether they win and kills them if they lose. Plus i think we played to those teams levels and did us more harm than good.KC saysnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7363837069141383760.post-45070047830931107202009-04-12T22:23:00.000-04:002009-04-12T22:23:00.000-04:00HAHAHA!
