I know we’re overrated. We got lucky our hot shooting night was at Oregon.Putting this in the post-game thread as well:
I hate to say it, but I think we are overrated right now. Too many excuses were given on some of these losses. No more. Maybe, in the end, Illinois will be the 6th seed that was given to them at the beginning of the year.
This was a very poor effort. No defense whatsoever. Deflated the whole game. No more ceiling talk, please. Reality rules the day.
I hope you’re right, but “okay” is not sliding back compared to how far we’ve climbed. Being a 7-seed that we all hope gets hot and scores an upset isn’t okay. :/Maybe we can cool it on the talk about our pathway to a 1 seed? Let’s focus on getting some conference wins and getting a good seed in the B1G Tourney. Adjust your expectations. We’ll be okay.
Having our full team for only one game since January 5th?2 weeks ago everyone in the media picking us as a final 4 team. Now…shocked if we aren’t on the 6-7 seed line and praying to make it out of the 1st weekend. What has happened to this team??
