With success, comes higher expectations!
Yes, the Ags have made the round of 32 consistently during the Blair era after the first 2 rebuilding years.
He has the program where that is no longer the expectation, and short of the Sweet 16 has become under achieving...particularly when the sub regional is on your home court.
When you are a 2, 3 or 4 seed, the Sweet 16 or higher is expected...but as we have seen in the NCAA tournament, men's or women's, upsets are prevalent. I think a little less so in women's,
basketball.
Interesting that bu with their 2 NC's has also been the victim in 2 of the biggest upsets in wbb history...vs. our Ags in 2011 and vs. Louisville last year.
I think JMU will present a tough challenge Tuesday night...they are quick, loose and seem to have pretty good depth...not much height, but they out rebounded the taller and higher seeded Zags.
If they keep us from getting out on the break, we will need to be much better in our 1/2 court O vs. a zone to win.
