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
Are you talking to yourself?

I am starting to see why it’s hard to play at Moody. And it ain’t the crowd.

UCF is terrfic on defense, but looks limited on offense. It is a shame that injuries suppressed their potential firepower.

LOL. Riled? I’m never riled. What amazes me is fans of a team as unaccomplished as WSU could even think that way. As much as it takes your whole squadron to try to humiliate SMU...just takes one UC fan to humiliate WSU.

You're totally insecure with WSU. Painfully obvious.
Keep up the good work.

Cincy...11 straight Tourney wins
WSU....4 straight tourney wins
That was an believable run 54 years ago that might not be replicated today. Who has surpassed it besides UCLA?
Back to the modern era, both Cincy and WSU have started their current runs about that same time. After a five-year absence from the tourney, Cincy made the round of 32 in 2011. WSU won the NIT that year and began their current NCAA streak, in 2012.
From 2011 - current, Cincy has three first round losses, a sweet 16 and three first round wins, for a record of 5-7.
From 2012 - current, WSU has a Final Four, a Sweet 16, one first round loss, and three other first round wins for a record of 10-6. That does include one "first-four" win in 2016 vs Vanderbilt.
Obviously Cincy's run under Huggins was great.

Cincinnati isn't even the most relevant school in Cincinnati.

Won’t be replicated. UC beat 10 straight ranked teams. 5 were Top 10. Two were #1. And that doesn’t count #4 Bradley in the “Play in game” for an MVC title. All at WSU expense I might add. And those 14 straight appearances wasn’t that long ago. Which included a Final Four, two E8s, and 16 weeks ranked #1.
But I understand why WSU fans want to start the clock 5 years ago. Sorry, but history just doesn’t work that way.

Imagine if Tacko Fall puts on some muscle and develops a decent hook or mid range jumper ?

SMU reminds me of UNI (minus the flopping). Decent defense and painfully slow offense, but efficient.

Agreed 100%. Donnie Jones was a always a terrible hire. It was him that got UCF caught up with the ncaa that could have derailed their fiesta bowl season.
He won with Kirk Speraws troops and was never able to get any kids to stay on campus, such as Kevin ware.
