Selection Committee Games of Interest

[royalfan]

Let's remember we grabbed one from the jaw s of defeat against Illinois or we are in dire straights right now.  Goes both ways.

What a fricken choke job by New Mexico last night.  Really could have used a Boise loss.

so does the 2 pt loss at psu. and the 5 pt loss at osu. we've had quite a few chances to nail that coffin lid down and we passed. So if we misss the tourney, it'll have been our own doing. 
 
all that said, I'm just really enjoying this season, and find myself not really worrying at all about how it finishes. this is a fun team to follow. and they've given us a great ride. if that ride goes to the NIT, I'm still going to enjoy it. 

I'm still enjoying it. That game was ripe for the picking. But, yeah, the other L's are equally as troublesome.

The roll NU is on right now is fun. Let's keep rolling Big Red !!!

The only change I would have is Texas over KSU.  Texas seems more firmly in than KSU.  They also have the better resume.  KSU is looking like they will need to hit .500 in the conference and I don't know if that is possible.  Texas would still be in with a loss and I think KSU would be back in with a win.

 

Most all games tonight are really winnable for the non-bubble team.  We could use a huge night from our fellow bubble counterparts to lose.... please?

[jdostal]

A lot of people have LSU on the bubble. Their RPI is garbage but they have some good wins, and a road win at Florida would be yet another one.

So you want Texas?  That was my lean in my comment as well, so we would be in agreement.

I was going back and forth on this earlier...do we really want PSU?  I know Maryland is a bubble team much like we are but I was kind of thinking that we may want them to rack up some wins so our potential win over them looks "good."

[royalfan]

I do, since we played them twice, it can only help RPI.  A hot Penn St. team coming into the last game of the year wouldn't hurt either.  It isn't a huge deal either way, however IMO.  Just a lean to Penn St.

Ah, I thought the bold was the teams you were going with.  My bad.  I am 100% in agreement with Texas then.

Wouldn't we want Florida? Currently, bracketmatrix has Florida firmly in and LSU ahead of Nebraska as a member of the Next Four Out.

[royalfan]

possibly so, I wasn't aware LSU was such a threat.  I was thinking better chance neither makes it than both if LSU won, but that may not be the reality of the situation.

Wednesday's Games:

 

Maryland/Penn State - toss up, but I'll default to the "we play them twice" pick

LSU/Florida - Florida just fell out of the Top 25, keep it coming

St. John's/Villanova - they beat Duke, now do it again!

Virginia/Florida State - need FSU to start losing games again

Wake Forest/Miami - Wake Forest needs to beat some ACC opponents

Marquette/Seton Hall - Marquette is teetering on the bubble

Saint Louis/St. Bonaventure - St. Bonaventure is also teetering on the bubble

Kansas State/Texas - on the fence for this one, default to "down with Texas"

Ohio State/Purdue - just a great matchup to keep on your radar, picking Purdue to get the high NCAA tourney seed

Georgia/Vanderbilt - Georgia is hot and cold on the bubble

Texas A&M/Auburn - Texas A&M teetering on the bubble

NC State/Virginia Tech - this one is tough, maybe NC State since they seem solidly in?

 

Updating this post throughout the night.

St John's up by 9 with 5 minutes to go.  Quite the two game stretch for them if they can hang on

[hskr4life]

So... Penn State is more on the Bubble than Maryland right?

As of right now,  given the season accomplishments to date, I'd say they are even or maybe still give the edge to Maryland. But if you'd ask me which team has a better chance at making it... I'd Penn State with the way they are playing.

Here's what KenPom had to say about this game:

 

85 St. John's at 1 Villanova

Villanova 87-66 (97%)

7:00 pm  CBS Sports Network

Philadelphia, PA Wells Fargo Center

[HuskerActuary]

Villanova goes down, and Virginia wins! Great results on both games

[49r]

Wow!  St. John's!  Really doing us a solid this week!

[hskr4life]

St Johns- Good loss... Bad loss... Meh loss... all in the time span of a monthish.

[HuskerActuary]

Marquette beating Seton Hall is very unfortunate, though. Crap
