I honestly haven't seen much mention of IU fans saying we'll go further than the Sweet 16. If they have, I've missed it. Based on This Poll that was started on the board on March 6th, it's clear that most had us either going out in the 2nd round or the Sweet 16. As you can see in the poll, there are 39 total votes, with 28 of those votes being from the 2nd and out, or the Sweet 16 itself. Granted, there's no way to tell who voted in what category, but below are quotes (in the prediction thread) from definite IU fans. Without naming names here, here are some of the quotes.
This all being said, I haven't totally followed this thread, so it's possible I'm missing something. I personally voted Sweet 16, and I'm sticking with it. As much as it pains me to say, there's hardly a snowball's chance in hell we beat UK this time around. Been an incredible season, and I won't hang my head for one second. Next year is when the real expectations arrive. |

My friend's cat is still picking Purdue to win the championship. Cats are stupid. |

"By all means rag on the "experts" for picking against IU (Although I didn't hear any do that, I didn't listen to any talk about the IU game either.) but you guys are a better team and expect more out of this team than to bust a load about a 4 vs. 13 matchup right? If the hangover from being out of the tourney for a few years is that big then carry on and call me a dumb Purdue poster and I'll go sit with ab man or whatever the fuck his name is." This is my original statement. I know what I meant by it no matter how many quotes you pull up after the fact. I didn't present it in the best way so if you take it as a bash against IU then I apologize. |

I'm not ragging on ya at all, rob, didn't mean it to sound that way. But like I said, I haven't read through all the stuff either so I could have been way off. Either way man, didn't mean to offend you, and I wouldn't sit with ab, you're I.Q. level would take a massive hit. None of us need that. wtg |

I know what you meant too, but you said you would understand the boasting if all the experts did indeed pick against IU. So we proved to you that they did. And then you still bagged on us for boasting with your "congrats on beating the world" comment. |

That comment was based off of frustration due to you and other posters taken what I said way out of proportion. I agree it was out of line. My apologies. |

I wasn't offended by your comment Jaz. My post was to try and mend the argument with Dreach. When it comes to IU fan's expectations I was basing it off of the IU vs Kentucky (what the experts think) thread so maybe I shouldn't have said "threads". Just so you guys don't think I'm saying you are crazy, I think IU should expect to beat Kentucky and can beat them. Do I want them to? Now that's a whole other story ;) |

What's the point of being a fan if you expect wins and don't celebrate and have fun? I hate it when people act like sports is a business and not what it really is -- entertainment. |

Just because you expect to win win doesn't mean you can't celebrate. Prime example... See tamazing |
