Now you are the "Nation." Can you please pick 1 self annointed d-bag nickname please? Do you have the "House That Magic Built" as well?

Majerus said tonight that Manning will be all conference. Hope he can hit layups.

Maybe the worst offensive game of the season and maybe the best defensive game of the season. Just sucks losing to a program that calls themselves "The Tradition."

Ah...The Tradition. That is as d-bag as "The Nation" for the Red Sox fans or that idiot from ESPN. Too bad we do not have video for our NIT Championship from '48

"The Tradition" Haha. Does most teams in Michigan give themselves or their arenas nicknames? See the self proclaimed "Hockeytown" for the Red Wings. Then again we have "Baseball Heaven" so I will be quiet. The Tradition, dumb.

I disagree. I know Jayhawk fans can be viewed as arrogant, but they have actually WON something. UMC Tigers have not accomplished something that NCAA juggernauts like Butler, VCU, and George Mason have--A final 4. UMC fans think they are entitled National Champion respect. I hope Luniardi is correct and we could play in the second round.

I don't understand why any Big East win is a big win? They is so much parity, that they end up beating each other. We have seen how overated the Big East is in the tournament overall. I understand UCONN won it all last season, but the Big East flopped otherwise. BTW, SLU has a Big East win.

What an honor it would be to play the Jayhawks. They are a Midwest program with a tradition of class and success unlike that school down 70 in Boone. I think it will be interesting with McLemore being eligible and what team they will return. The Jayhwaks is the team we should beg to play.

Hey let's not gripe about postseason awards since Conklin did get 1st team honors that I did not believe he would get. Let's not turn turn into Columbia here. God, they are whining biotches.

I would not mind crushing X's NCAA chances in the A10 tournament. The Muskateers fans already hate this team, let's send them to the NIT officially.

Either team will have a game under their belt and we are deep as hell, so major advantage Bills. Having McCall and Jett all over you for 40 minutes will wear you down.

Does Conklin have any chance of being 1st team All A10?

We always hear about SLU fan having money, so those who attend the home games wearing turtlenecks, SLU sweaters, and penny loafers need to get on a plane to AC and cheer on our Billikens.

Huh?!? What?!? Not a good observation.

The second half was sweet with the crowd and all, but the first half left a lot to be desired. The crowd behind the visitor backboard was a joke in the first half. Other than the 8-0 run, the first half crowd folded their arms the whole time. SLU crowds have a lot to learn about creating winning basketball. I hope, like corporate america, we can faze out the older crowd and replace them with a more productive younger group. Bring on the haters. Great win by the way and let's punch our ticket. Hope UMASS can help us out.

Wouldn't get this if we were playing Creighton...Talk about a big game feel.

I actually retract because he retracted in his post today, sort of. So just a little Bush, like W. The officiating went against KU in the first meeting, with the Jayhawks' shooting only 9 free throws compared to MU's 20. (And KU was called for twice as many fouls, 20-10.) And in the rematch, Missouri was wronged on the game's most critical calls, and ended up with 15 fewer FT attempts than KU Read more: http://www.stltoday....l#ixzz1ncaFcP3S

I guess he didnt watch the 1st game in Columbia...that is Bush League writing

I believe many Gonzaga games have been on ESPN this year so it's hard for them to be under the radar.

If you constantly talk about a team being a "sleeper," are they still one? Is Gonzaga or Butler a sleeper anymore?

Yes!!!! We play KU again. I would rather play them than UMC team that has good team once in awhile and have the biggest A-Hole fans. Plus, we own KU as we beat them last time. Still got to sting for the Jayhawks

Got my tickets. Didn't seem to have much remaining in ways of tickets.

SLU #22 RPI

Just shows the talent this team has winning by such a margin on an off night

Wow and the Bills will cover the spread after this poor effort
