zipalong Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Several posters are unhappy with the BB non legue schedule, how about if you are a Buckeye fan, and THREE of your games are with northeast Ohio teams, Akron, Can't, Youngstown. How do you feel about paying $60 plus for a ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo Zip Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Those guys (OSU) play in a big conference and they know that as long as they have a half decent season, they will be in the bracket come march. Unlike us, midmajors, who need to have a strong out of conference schedule to impress the committee if we don't win the tournament.I don't see why would any OSU fan be disappointed in watching 3 NEO teams.

skip-zip Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 I think that's a good point skhorbotly. OSU doesn't have to worry too much about their OOC schedule since they get a very high SOS rating at the end of the season due to their conference schedule.

I don't think OSU has the guts to schedule K.e.n.t. and the Zips in the same hoops season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little confused if he's talking about football or basketball.But the first sentence in the thread says something about people unhappy with the bb schedule, and the thread is in the basketball forum But yeah i know that OSU are playing 3 NEO FB teams.

skip-zip Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 It is interesting though to note that OSU can play a really weak OOC basketball schedule, pad their win total, and still get a good tourney seed because of the strength of their conference, even if they do not win many conference games.Which leads me back to the argument I've been trying to make for 25 years.Should wins count more? Or, who you play?I'm for the former. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zipgrad01 Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Yeah, I am sure the Bucks would be urinating down their leg if they scheduled Can't and Akron in the same basketball season. Be serious. They WAXED Can't 81-59. They could have beaten them worse, but chose not to. Give me one good reason why they would remotely consider Can't or Akron a serious challenge?
