In the NCAA, those cinderella teams happen every year... I would absolutely LOVE to see KSU go to the tourney and make a splash... Go Cats!

Wichita State beat the Big East's Providence on their home court 90-86. I'm damn proud of that.
I bet they didn't see THAT coming

KSU is 43rd in the RPI. Their strength of schedule is ranked 208, though. But hey, I'm not gonna knock on that. When you're a struggling program trying to rebuild (heh, Woolridge has been doing that for 3 or 4 years now) you need to schedule some patsies to get your confidence up.

Oh, and that game against North Dakota St. doesn't count according to the RPI. They only count Div. I games.

Here are KSU's opponents on the season and their RPI rankings.
Denver RPI 99
Washington St. RPI 166
Arkansas PB RPI 256
Oakland RPI 150
Wyoming RPI 107

Pretty high RPI all things considered, but its still early in the season, so it RPI and all that really don't matter.

What's this ? No Jingo Tech or Hillsdale U ?

KSU has a basketball team ?

Keep climbing the trees Kittens, maybe someday you can soar with the Hawks .

NDSU is a Division 1 team...this was their first year. Its an error in their programming...but no complaints here. They'd likely drop our RPI..

Thats what we are doing, climbing the trees. Gotta get the W's no matter what, and start filling up the stadium. Noone expects them to win a National Title this year, so obviously KU and KSU has different expectations. Besides, how does KU stand a chance at winning it all without Rich Scanlon at PG?

So I guess the Bods have the State of Kansas only loss throughout Division 1 and Division 2. Don't know about JUCO.

nnnniiiiiccccccceeeee..........

Washburn's loss was to Kansas wasn't it? That cancels it out then...

Oh wow, I was starting to believe a little bit of your post until you posted about Scanlon, how can I believe you now ?

KU has there work cut out for them to win it all, they have the talent, can they stay focused and play together as a team in the end ?

Washburn lost to Rockhurst College, IIRC. In other news, the Lady Blues and Lady Hornets are both vying for the #1 spot in the Nation.

Really, my post was more dead on than yours. Kitty State has had some weak teams and played weak teams, But progress is being made, I long for the days when KU had a rival in the state playing basketball.

Keep climbing the tree little kitty !
