OT-SDSU Basketball

[sdduuuude]

Turns out I didn’t need to go to grad school or move to San Diego to get a team into the Elite 8.

Arizona crushed the Dukies last night. What a performance! Makes up for that final game a few years ago where the refs were clearly on the Duke payroll.

It is tough carrying momentum like that into the next game. After a great performance, it is easy to go flat. Go Cats !

Getting through the tourney is about guard play and that is where the Aztecs fall short. A team with a great point guard and a solid shooting guard will take down a team led by a big man almost everytime in this tournament.

SDSU had a awesome year, I love them, went to all the home games. But they were a bit overrated the whole year. I would say something like 17th or 18th in the nation was more accurate, not 6th. They just don’t really play anybody all year, they play a lot of cupcakes. They really have always had a hard time against top flight thoroughbred type programs :
-2002 NCAA lose to Illinois 1st round
-2006 NCAA lose to Indiana 1st round
-2010 NCAA lost to Tennessee 1st round
-2011 They beat No. Colorado (who was a Division 2 team a few years ago) and a mid major Temple who was not even the best team in their conference & had 2 bigs injured.
-2011 sweet 16 lose to UCONN

…so the point is, whenever they have played against teams from the BCS schools they almost always lose. They used to play Arizona a lot and would lose to them every year. Steve Fisher just doesn’t schedule anybody. He never gets them in the big Holiday tournaments in Hawaii or NYC where they could play against Big East, Big 12, SEC and Big 10 schools. Instead they chock up wins against the Cal Poly’s, Occidentals, IUPUI’s, San Diego Cristian, Little Sisters of the Poor…

I would argue that they had the easiest road to the sweet 16 in the whole NCAA. Even Kentucky had to play West VA in the 2nd round, Duke Michigan, UNC had to play Washington, etc…..SDSU got the easiest 2nd round team in Temple.

I wish he would play some decent teams non-conference.

I understand what you mean about the strength of their schedule but they weren’t too overrated. They were ranked in the top 10 and made it to the sweet 16.

The last time they played Arizona, they kicked Arizona’s ass, by the way – I know. I went to AZ and was at the game.

Great season for SDSU and AZ. Lots to be proud of. Not as proud of UCONN, who took them both out.
