If you're talking about just which loss hurts more then it's GT.

If you're assuming that we can magically turn a loss into a win, then Virginia would have been a better win. But then again UNC or Syracuse would have been even better so why not claim those two are our "worst losses" in this crazy hypothetical situation?

Also, Moorehead State was our best win, because if we had lost to them it would have destroyed our chances at the tournament, right?

2/14/2012 1:34:51 PM

^^no, i've seen you try to point that out

2/14/2012 1:40:03 PM

exactly

2/14/2012 1:56:21 PM

I would like SpreadCheeks' input on our season to date. I bet he's a nervous wreck.

2/14/2012 1:56:31 PM

He's got a lot of shit on his plate these days, but I'll check with him to see if he'd like to chime in

because having the ball for the last shot, down by one, isn't the same situation as getting blown out.

2/14/2012 3:49:44 PM

The question is: if you had to choose, would you take a GT loss and a UVA win or a GT win and a UVA loss.

So, good win/bad loss

vs.

not a good win/not a bad loss

2/14/2012 4:37:43 PM

^i'd take either, this is a dumb debate

Welcome to Sports Talk.

2/14/2012 5:01:09 PM

I didn't realize it was a debate. Just genuinely curious over which situation would be more favorable for getting into the tournament. And since we apparently can't talk about hypothetical situations in sports talk, maybe everyone will go back to jacking their dicks over which of our players is the sexiest or some dumbass non-sports related shit? Would that be fucking better?

2/14/2012 5:45:52 PM

I'd rather have the GT win and UVA loss...that way we don't have any wtf losses, and beating Virginia might not be as impressive as we thought once the season is all said and done

as to your other question, my heart still belong to Harrow

2/14/2012 5:54:53 PM

I'd rather talk future stuff than hypotheticals. Did you guys ever think that we could be #1 if we were undefeated?

2/14/2012 7:10:38 PM

Id rather lose the rest of our games and get the #1 pick

2/14/2012 7:23:56 PM

UVA win another loss, and they got a tough schedule ahead. MD, VT, UNC, FSU, @ MD

although i think MD lost a player.

Miami plays UNC. that could put us two full games up on both of them.

2/14/2012 8:41:49 PM

1.5 games ahead of the Wahoos

will be 1.5 games ahead of the Canes as well assuming UNC beats them tomorrow

then most likely back to 1 game ahead of both of them after Thursday

[Edited on February 14, 2012 at 8:43 PM. Reason : ^we are on the same page sir]

[Edited on February 14, 2012 at 8:43 PM. Reason : except its 1.5 not 2]

You know, the whole 'good win/bad loss vs not a good win/not a bad loss' works for future games too. Or do I have to spell it out by changing the team names? Either way, applying that argument to future games is still a hypothetical at this point. Ever listen to sports radio? It's filled with hypotheticals. Basically, why are you being such a whiny douche about it? People are in here talking about NC State basketball. So what if it's about something that has already happened.

2/14/2012 10:37:23 PM

Texas beat Oklahoma

Hah just met Bobby Lutz at Cameron Village when I went to get lunch. Just told him good luck tomorrow and they've done a great job this year (all things considered). He seemed really appreciative, but he talks really strange. That is all, good story I know

2/15/2012 12:39:12 PM

Does it help or hurt us if Miami wins tonight? I'm gonna say hurt.

2/15/2012 7:35:42 PM

that's a no-brainer. we do not want miami to win another game. they're a bubble team that plays decidedly non-bubble teams (us excluded) the rest of the way.

2/15/2012 7:57:44 PM

kenny kadji is so good

let's start getting africans instead of euros

2/15/2012 8:16:23 PM

^^not a no brainer at all. Miami could turn into 2 quality wins giving us an option even if we drop the next three games. If they beat unc.

looking good at the half here. I'd hate to see us get nudged into the NIT because MIA is a stronger #4 when all is said and done, though...

2/15/2012 8:54:17 PM

I'll be dead before I pull for UNC in any game that doesnt immediately net us a regular season championship

2/15/2012 8:57:24 PM

exactly... i see miami winning and think "Damnit" as far as our bubbles go

but then i ask "do i really want unc to win though?"

HELL NO

all this time i thought tar heel was just another word for faggot

2/15/2012 9:04:05 PM

god I hate watching these asshole get every fucking call

okay well in the developed world i don't care how many faggots make up their student body and i want miami off the bubble.

2/15/2012 9:54:08 PM

ugh gingers piss me off...

im kidding man. i see your logic, im not against it,,, but im definitely not for it

2/15/2012 9:56:12 PM

1.5 game lead on 5th, and UM and UVA both have pretty tough schedules coming up too.

[Edited on February 15, 2012 at 10:02 PM. Reason : Well maybe Miami's isn't as hard as I thought]

2/15/2012 10:01:38 PM

4th is ours for the taking

Win 1 of the next 3 and beat Miami again and it's basically locked up

2/15/2012 10:11:23 PM

no, FIRST is ours for the taking.

we're just not going to take it.

You have to know it is not particularly likely that we'll win any of the next 3 games

A little extra free insurance never hurt anybody

2/15/2012 10:35:50 PM

^ right.

if your plan to make the tournament is to win out... we're not making the tournament.

2/15/2012 10:38:51 PM

I'm glad that we at least get to stay at home during a 6 day/3 game stretch...I'm glad there isn't a trip to Tallahassee or Miami right in the middle of it.

2/16/2012 8:57:30 AM

I'm glad FSU has a game tonight too - no rest for them either on Saturday
