Just curious what would happen if we won the last 3.  We have a unique resume.  It would certainly garner some attention to see if it is what they want. That being said we will be 10.5 or so underdogs at Iowa which gives us very little realistic chance to win.

T- Rank has a projected NET of 84 in this scenario.  Expected Quads would be 4-10, 5-4, 1-0,7-0.  His system also would have us as the 8th team out

I don’t know t rank methodology of selecting teams but guessing it is in line with net etc. to a large extent.  I don’t know that the selection people value mov as much as who did you play, who did you beat.

I know Rutgers was darn near 80 last year in the NET... so if we can squeeze ourselves up into the upper 70's.... maybe they look past some of our flaws.  Long ways to go to get there though.

8th team out of NCAA tourney. Would be a projected 2 seed in the NIT.

In the "WAG" bracket on bracket matrix, we moved from "no longer considered for at large" to "on life support".... Back from the dead!!

I tweeted with Shelby Mast who is the BracketWag guy to make this happen.  Totally taking credit for it.  I mean Derrick, the Sam's and Keisei get some credit too.  It's a more accurate description of our current state!

Wishful thinking

The more we win, the more people will realize how our difficult our schedule really was.  Minny game is huge today.  Win is a must.  Style points if you can get em.

So Nebraska's problem is they just have so many Q1 losses?

Basically.  Even if we had just won 1-2 more games at this point, we’re sitting really pretty.

 

How I wish we could have the OU and STJohns games back and with Walker.

These are probably our "worst" losses. Replace these 2 games with Directional A&M & Cupcake St Ws, we are not in, but are at least still being mentioned as a team with a chance.

[The Polish Rifle]

Our best win currently playing like cat piss. Nice job bluejays, ya scrubs.

The problem as far as metrics are concerned is how bad we lost so many games.

And aside from autobids, there are no Q3/Q4 teams in the NCAA tournament. The committee wants to pick teams who have shown they can win these bigger games.

Win a game, drop 4 spots in Kenpom. Sounds about right.

Nova jumped up 10 spots in Kenpom after their Creighton win they’re churning right now. It also doesn’t help that all the committee needed was that UNC win over Virginia to validate them making the field if they hold serve.

We won by the exact amount we were projected to by kenpom so had to be a product of our opposition did today mostly.  Frustrating.

Maine won... FSU beat Miami... The Johnnies played UCONN close.  

 

Thanks Creighton.

[royalfan]

Our score basically stayed the same.  Some teams behind us won big is the drop of three spots from 90-93
