There's a big difference between losing at Duke or Kentucky and losing at New Mexico. We are big Lobo fans so we feel we should be considered with those teams, but until we can make the tourney consistently and advance past the first weekend, these teams will not come to the Pit. They have nothing to gain.

Unfortunately you are correct...for now. Hope that changes soon. :D

I don't think those schools would come to the Pit even if we made the sweet-16 consistantly. Memphis and Gonzaga have been top-15 teams consistantly over the last decade and you don't see the above mentioned schools knocking down there door. I'm happy with beating a ton of middle-of-the-road "little six" programs like Arizona State, Oklahoma State...

Serious? Or do I need to educate you where "little" six things like motion offense and man-to-man defense originated? It's the second most historic program in the Big12-2 and a top 20 overall.

Also, I have called around and a series in the future is in the works, it is depending on next year. OSU wants to see how New Mex plays. It's looking like Stillwater in 2012, NM in 13, Stillwater 14.

They are ALL ALL ALL little six programs to me. Screw 'em all! I cheer for: 1) UNM 2) MWC 3) all schools not belonging to BCS conferences or little six conferences. The rest of them can suck an egg. :scared1:

Man enough about the Pokes.. Right now they would be an 8-10 point underdog in the PIT. They have history with Sutton Senior but other than that they have fallen into about as average as you can be. I have been to GIA many times, it is not the PIT, not even close.

Pokes are a Final Four contender with Nash. (I think the Lobos are at least sweet 16, 8 if Alf gets them to peak at the right time.) GIA has fallen off as of recent but it could hold its own in its time. The Pit wasn't very scary during the wasteland for basketball that was the 00's, GIA was insane for most of it.

I'm not a BCS homer and its tragic what it has done to college football. CBB seems to have a lot of parody which is healthy, but look at the top programs all time in any sport. They are all in the 6 BCS leagues.

The "parody" in the BCS is the bottom rung teams in those leagues claiming superiority over the better non-AQ teams!

Huh?

Parody is when KU with all the resources in the world didn't make a Final Four but VCU and Butler does.

He's a one and done talent plus ceasar and cobbins. Lots of talent right there. If only Ford was as smart of a coach as Alford.

Ok St. has a lot of talent but to say they're a final four contender is a reach to say the very least.
