I think this poor guy might be on tilt. He even makes his own Shocker skin lotion at this point for his uncommonly soft little hands.

Win a game in the tournament and then get back to me.
I’ll take a regular season conference championship and tournament championship over losing in the round of 32 any day. We sit here talking about championships, you guys won’t shut up about losing to Kentucky.
Oh dear God. You didn’t just say you’d take a meaningless, cosmetic regular season championship over NCAA tournament victories, did you? Please say you didn’t.
We have a Creighton ideaology alert. I repeat, we have a Creighton ideaology alert.
For the record, we have more than our fair share of conference titles AND NCAA tournament victories. And it’s not even close. I can’t believe you’re embarrassing your program and the AAC like you are. Please tell me not all SMU fans think this. Good God.
Cincinnati in Tourney... 16 wins over .500
WSU in Tourney......... 18 wins total
Again not arguing total history. Although I believe we have a pretty decent record in the tourney compared to everyone in the conference since we started our run in 2012. Perhaps I am wrong.
And I agree. 2nd weekend and beyond is what is real special. I just still feel if you gave me a choice this year of either a conference championship or at least 1 win in the tourney. I would pick AT LEAST 1 win in the tourney. For one, it does more for the conference. While it doesn't make the conference rich, it does more for the conference financially than just winning the conference championship.

I agree in general, though WSU is one of only a couple of programs that's won at least one game in the NCAA tournament in each of the last five tournaments.

I actually haven't heard that thrown around in quite a while since you brought it up today. Maybe you're tired of the national pundits who are often talking about it. I can't remember the last time a WSU fan brought it up.
Maybe you're the one that needs to get over it.
Regardless, your credibility is now lost by saying conference championships supersede NCAA Tournament wins.
