Even without pre-season expectations factored in. Take where they will be seeded. S16 would be a great result. Right now, after that loss, they would probably slip to the 5 line. Not sure where being pleased with S16 is reason to not be happy?SportsAndLady;1090662 wrote:Laley, before this season, I and most KU fans were hoping to just get into the tourney..that's how low expectations were coming into the year. Now that they are a top 10 team, our expectations shifted to "final four or bust"
What's the point? Preseason expectations are irrelevant. You have to adjust your expectations based on how well they've played this season, and IU has played pretty well, generally speaking.
Now, if you are saying you don't think they're that good..then fine. I just don't like how fans continue their preseason expectations throughout the entire year. You have to adjust as the season goes along.
Plus, we have gone from 6 to 10. 10 to 12. 12 to 25???? wins. No matter what happens you call that a success. You cant even compare a poor (on paper) Kansas team to what Indiana was (on paper) coming into the year.
