I am not an expert on the subject, obviously, as I was receiving some serious schooling in the matter last week. But if WSU is a paper tiger, what in the hell does that make ISUr?

Need to find your offense to be a front runner. I'd say with the way ISUr is playing right now, they are a front runner for most disappointing final 1/3rd of conference play.

KenPom as of this morning
ISUr Offense: 135
WSU Offense: 24

ISUr Defense: 13
WSU Defense: 20

WSU has found their defense that they were missing, and already had the best offense in the league. So I'd venture that WSU is still the front-runner to finish without a loss.

Anything is possible, but if I had to bet on whether ISUr would win out or if they would lose 2 more games, I would bet on them losing 2 more. If MM was healthy, I'd go the other way.

A paper butterfly?

It might take a while before we see carefully crafted defense/response to this. Or it might just be ignored all together.

Oh i never bet on this stuff. Though If I would have bet against ISU on the spread .. I would be rolling in my winnings right now. They have won, but several games they shouldn't have (other team collapsing, missing free throws etc).

And lets not forget they have 1 game left. Could still end up as the non-qualifier in that bet :)
