Lunardi finally has us in as Last 4 In

 

Yet every metrics has as the best 10 seed or better (37th) and our RPI has us as a 5 seed

 

RPI - 20th = 5 seed

SOR - 24th = 6 seed

KPI -  27th = 7 seed

Kenpom - 28th = 7 seed

NET - 33rd = 9 seed

BPI - 37th = 10 seed

 

Yet Lunardi has us barely in... if I saw him in real life I'd kick him in the balls for his bias

Big Ten Tournament seeding odds after the end of the non-con season is out.  Remember that the bottom 3 teams don't make the conference tournament:

Lunardi isn't even good at what he does; unfortunately he has a big platform. 

 

Look at the 20-40 teams in the current BartTorvik rankings, compared to where Lunardi seeds them. Pretty typical.
