The KenPom #5 offense has three points in eight minutes against the mighty Cincinnati Bearcats. Have the Bearcats figured out an all together new method of playing of the game?

Hey that’s me

This years bubble went from really crowded and weak to kind of crowded and strong real fast.  There’s going to be a few deserving teams left out this year.

Was just thinking this myself and how glad I am that we aren't close to bubble!

...and then get slapped with a #5 seed on the road in the NIT.

Remember that NIT changed format this year too.  So no more auto bids to mid-major regular season winners.

Oooof, Tennessee is getting it handed to them.

I was considering having them as my national champion in my bracket until this debacle

If North Carolina loses today and Arizona wins the Pac-12, there is a chance that Arizona is a #1 seed in Salt Lake City

Boy I wouldn't mind heading that way as an 8-9!

I have a friend from Nebraska who has lived in Tucson for about 30 years now and become a huge Arizona fan. It would be so fun if we won our first game and we’re matched up with them in the second round. Probably meet him there if this ends up the matchup, actually.

In 1991 Nebraska beat Creighton by 35; and then lost in the first round while Creighton won.

 

I wouldn't mind this season being an opposite reflection of that one.

I'd love to Nebrasketball in Phoenix, while passing through Omaha, poetic, persistent, and peaceful after all chaos ensued in mid-Mar. Thanks Trav.

 

...and then have CU flame out on their 2nd attempt at a Final Four... in PHX, in 2024. Poopy-butts CU. 

[millerhusker]

Right now Lunardi's 10 seeds are: Michigan State (we obviously wouldn't get matched up with them), TCU, Oklahoma and Texas A&M. Mississippi State and Seton Hall would be other potential 10 seeds. Goodness, I hope we get a 7 seed. I've seen all of those teams play and they look about like Rutgers to me. In fact, Rutgers did win @Seton Hall this year. 

[hskr4life]

I’ve seen numerous 7 seed predictions today so far!

I just wonder what the committee is going to do when they have to make last minute changes, predicting incorrectly that Purdue was going to beat Nebraska on Sunday afternoon.

So have I, however I've also seen us a 9 in few brackets including Palm. DeCourcy. Katz(Mar 12).

[Cazzie22]

I think most of the lines are set.  There isn’t much time to make big changes.  The PAC 12 has upset the apple cart so some bubble teams are impacted.  I am resigned to being an 8 or 9.
