Plus didn’t they win at home vs Kansas. Win against Baylor, then lose at Kstate? Talk about a let down game.
They beat Kansas at home last week.

This week they:

W @ Baylor
W vs. OKST
L @ KState

Let down indeed. But those three games happened in 6 days. I bet they were tired.

Really? I thought that one was OK. The NW defender pretty clearly held down the MSU big's arm on the inbounds. But, agree that it shouldn't have been there in the first place, very quick whistle on the (maybe not even a) travel and (definitely not a) jump ball.
If refs called that foul on every play, Kofi would shoot 50 free throws a game.

Somewhat OT RE: cheering for a conference title, I remember reading an article that when OSU played at Northwestern in 2006, while a game ahead of Illinois in the standings, there was a sizable contingent of orange at Welsh-Ryan Arena cheering for Northwestern. :ROFLMAO: We are well on our way, but I would love to get that reputation back as the best fans in the Big Ten, completely taking over visiting arenas. I was at the Iowa game in 2005 in Iowa City, where 5,000 Illini fans and the Orange Krush embarrassed the Hawkeyes, and it was a thing of beauty. I would love to see a huge contingent of Illini fans in Bloomington on Saturday 2/5!
I will be attending the Iowa at Nebraska game next month strictly to boo the Sqwaukeyes.

Feels gross rooting for NU but we could really use an MSU loss.
Why? NW is hardly a rival. I don’t mind rooting for any B10 team outside of Michigan and Iowa these days. Wisconsin and Indiana depending on the decade are intolerable but recently I don’t mind them.

HAVE to figure we at least pass the following teams in the polls:
#20 Seton Hall (AND it makes our Marquette loss look less bad!)
#22 Tennessee (currently losing by 22 at Kentucky) in the polls
#23 Providence (hasn't played all week, while we won twice)
#24 Alabama (definitely if they lose again to MSST, where they are underdogs)

None of this is to even mention that we are now alone in first place with #7 Purdue (who will likely pass #5 USC and maybe #3 UCLA) coming to town! Hope the SFC is as loud as it's ever been.
Add #21 Texas losing to #15 ISU (who lost to Kansas earlier this week). Teams in the high teens that lost this week: #16 OSU, #17 Xavier. It's gonna be interesting to see where we end up next week. I'm guessing 20.

#21 texas picking up a loss at #15 iowa st. Should be enough for us to pass them

Ghost beat me to it

To be fair, I believe 6 of those losses occurred when two ranked teams played each other, so it's not quite as egregious as it looks.
