In reply to: SOJ 's message, "Re: Toughest Sweet 16 game for the SAC?" on 22:25:34 03/17/05 Thu

...it's more like, you have unrealistic expectations because you're an OBU fan.

To most reasonable people, a league can say it's wildly successful when it has 25 percent of the Sweet 16. Only in Bison-land is that a disappointing season.

And Slacker -- while I agree OBU-Georgetown is a coaching mismatch, let's just say that Georgetown has plenty of athleticism. The Tigers play 12 guys and will run most teams -- including, likely, OBU -- ragged.

Not to all reasonable people. SAC are among those select few who expect a national title contender every year from their conference.

OBU's plays 9 guys, and talentwise they're deeper. Anybody who's seen both teams play knows that this year's Bison team has more athletes and goes deeper with quality players than G-Town. The fact that the Tigers will play 12 guys will actually hurt them. Call it the "Roy Williams syndrome."
