Who cares about which #1? I would think most of the country should pretty petrified to play us right now considering what we've done in the past few weeks.
I agree, but I mean it would be nice to avoid Gonzaga until the natty but again I love where we are at right now!

Kofi with 18 points and 12 boards. Could have had 25 points if he hit the FT's. Dominated for a good part of the game. The poor 3rd string center who now has to guard Kofi after Johnson fouled out.

Let’s just end this debate right now.

If Illinois wins the BTT, they will be the #2 overall team in the tourney.

No one is going to hold a loss in the 4th game of the season against the way Illinois is playing now.

These announcers (and the hoops media in general) giving Gonzaga way too much love IMO. Less than half their schedule has been teams in the KenPom top 100. They're good, but they're not invincible.

Gotta hold serve, then only a maybe. OKST is very good. Doesn't change much.
That is how I see it too. Only 2 losses and it was in a meaningless tourney for them. Won't change a thing. But if Illini win the tourney....they will provoke some thought.
