Between these two we have the list down to these 9: UCONN, Purdue, Duke, Arizona, Auburn, Houston, Creighton, Marquette, UNC, Colorado, Tennessee, and Nebraska

One of these things is not like the others....

 

 

 

I mean it sucks being on a list of other top-level programs and seeing Colorado on there, but I guess learning how to put up with the peasants is part of what we have to do now.

Our saving grace if we get a 7 seed

 

- Win over Purdue

- Our Resume metrics

- Just 3 losses outside of Q1

- A .500 or better record in everything except Q1A.

-That beat down of Indiana that had everyone tweeting.

 

Our nail in the coffin if we end up an 8/9

 

- BPI

- Non Con SOS

- Loss to Rutgers

- A 4-7 mark in Q1

After diving into the numbers just a bit more-- it wouldn't surprise me if Iowa State backdoors themselves into the last 1 seed should UNC lose to NCST here.

 

They have just 1 loss outside of Q1 and have beaten Houston 2/3 times including today's neutral site beatdown.

 

Not saying it will happen, but it very well could.

Play-in games (I know they don't call them that) - are the last 4 automatic bids and the last 4 at-large's right?   

 

Just wondering to confirm that NC State would not fit either of those categories.   Would be pretty cruel otherwise for the NCAA to put them in a Tuesday game after playing 5 days in a row :).

Question is...do they play on Tuesday?

 

I don't think auto bids can play in first 4.  It's the Last 4 bubble teams in.  Does that mean we have a 10 seed play in game?  Possibly?  Especially if Oregon upsets Colorado.

Another fun possible story line-- Long Beach State is playing in the final right now.  If they win, they will dance.  BUT they've already fired their coach.  However, their coach is... still coaching... as they were waiting until the end of the season before moving on.  LOL.
