O K...all you I U naysayers jump in and let us know what you think about our Sweet 16 visit....
Well you beat a 13 seed and a 12 seed congrats?
As a four seed you are supposed to be in the sweet16.
Seeding who would bring up seeding, oh a nay sayer. 15's seeds take out 2's. Ask the dukes or the Missourians or need I go on. Must be a Purdue fan. Next will be the how many big 10 titles you got.blah blah blah.
If you think that IU fans are bad, you should be around some UK fans for just regular season games. Really this thread isn't going anywhere unless hornadylnl chimes in.I dont really care one way or the other, but IU fans really need to pump the brakes a bit.
I mean they finished 5th in conference. Judging by IU fans out in public, IU fans on facebook, etc you would think they are already in the final four. I was at Smokey Bones in FW with my wife, son, and meeting my parents. I was walking to the table and passed by a guy with an IU hat and t-shirt and he was telling the people he was with that IU was going to win it all next year. I think they are going to be an excellent team, but my god.
I root for every B10 team in the tournament, but sometimes IU fans make it really tough.
As much as I hope IU beats Kentucky again, it is obviously wishful thinking. Kentucky is DAMN good, and with the buzzer beater obviously fresh in everyone's mind, they will come out of the gates flying.
Either way I will be cheering for IU, and I am extremely excited to see them improve over the next few years.
Hopefully Zeller will stay all 4 years like his brother.
I have been an IU fan since I was a wee lad and I can say that the last few years have been tough to endure. We fans were accustomed to winning or at the least being in the game at the end with a chance to win. To be victorious over 3 top five teams and to win their game over NC State (a sweet 16 team I might add) in the Acc/Big Ten challenge gave us fans something to cheer about. As sorry as the last few years have been, that is alot of energy and emotion to let loose. VCU might have been a lower seeded team, but they did beat a 2 and had a total of 29 victories. That press was for real and would give most teams fits... Hopefully the IU fans will get accustomed to winning again and get back to the point of expecting to win. I would like to see another banner in the rafters in the next few years.
As obnoxious fans go....none of them beat Ohio State....every time I hear that O H I O bogus cheer I want to hurl....guess they will feel the brunt of cheating with their football team this year.
