Speak for yourself
everybody here already having a good time and enjoying arch madness only as good as you make it

Its just a great weekend regardless, and made better obviously if ISU does well. Last time I went the Thursday night games were the most competitive games of the whole weekend, and the majority of fans missed them.

Thanks for posting this. When some think the sky is falling numbers like these remind people ISU is very competitive athletically. Sometimes the big picture gets lost in the race to pick the demise of a said sport or athletic department.

What's the reasoning / logic behind using 1999 as the 'start date'?

Just curious... Why not 2001 (21st century)?

But I believe MOST fans don't realize we've advanced in Arch Madness every year but 5 years (counting 1999) AND that last year was the FIRST year since 2010 (hint, hint) that we HAVEN'T advanced...

Lansing record in Arch Madness... 7-4 with one title.
McKenna's record... 2-3
Waltman's record... 8-9 with one title
Dillard's record... 1-1 and we didn't even QUALIFY during his 1st two years.
Locke's record...0-3 and we didn't qualify in his last season.

Pre-Arch Madness
Locke 0-1
Greene 0-4
Schellhase 1-3
Hodges 3-3 with one title
King 2-1
