utah had their chance last night and got crushed by an awful Oregon StateJust fear will bend over backwards to get Nova in.
May want Utah in for more western balance.

Even though PC had 2-4 record against nova/hall/sj their record against top 3 was better then the others.it is definitely complicated that is for sure. A few results can change alot. I think Utah and Nova are close enough to the field where those wins are still looked at highly.
PC was 2-4 vs Nova/SJU/SHU. Nova is not getting in with 15 losses....95% on that. The issue is PC will likely lose to UConn and that means they will drop to 9-1 in Q1/2/3 and that is tough to recover from. 10 wins coming from Quad 4 sticks out.....but the biggest factor is your injured player. Like with RU last year the committtee can say it just isnt the same team
what is the projected opponent for PC in the Big East for the opener and beyond.
also keep in mind the USF/Richmond factor currently going on with potentially opening up 2 more slots.
at 15 too many not at 14tThat’s the argument!
Nova is the fly in the ointment. You know CBS (Cough cough) NCAA wants Nova in.
Just think too many losses.
shu has the better combo of winsEven though PC had 2-4 record against nova/hall/sj their record against top 3 was better then the others.
Yeah I agree as far as them more talking about St John's. BTW you d o a fantastic job with this. Appreciate how you explain how and why you come up with your picks. Pretty sure Palm just throws darts at a dartboard blindfolded. Guy's an embarrassment.shu has the better combo of wins
Nova beat UNC ooc and won at creighton
PC had home wins over Creigh/Marq so no...Nova and shu had better top wins
I think all bracketologists do some internal intuitive thinking but alot either do not put it down in print or in vids. To me Palm does not do enough explain albeit im prolly unaware of the podcasts he goes onYeah I agree as far as them more talking about St John's. BTW you d o a fantastic job with this.

Just curious as to why you think that? I personally think if anything they might favor St John's because of Pitino.That’s the argument!

not trueI have always heard Committee wanted balance and some more teams from the West. PAC 10 teams seemingly admitted out of nowhere and surprising all the bracketologists. MW the new west.
In the East, Committee has in many years loved the A10 and if there was a team that could get in, many times they did
All things being equal ask a CBS exec if you want Nova or Providence for ratings? If virtually identical would it really surprise you if they picked Nova.
Billion dollar industry, don’t think CBS has unofficial influence? Good luck with that.
Just can't understand what the point of breaking games into quads is if they are going to combine them again with this metric. Actually making no difference between quad 1 and quad 3it is definitely complicated that is for sure. A few results can change alot. I think Utah and Nova are close enough to the field where those wins are still looked at highly.

Tomorrow night is first one…three more on SundayWhen are the initial mid / low major champ games?
Do they commence this weekend?
Gimme some March Madness !
So next year just load up on q3 games I guess if they are going to count the same as q1.Because its very important to be a bove 500 in q123...very pathetic to be 9-12 and 10-0 in q4 for a power 6 confere school
No they dont count the same but only 7-11 in q12 is an issueSo next year just load up on q3 games I guess if they are going to count the same as q1.
Go with that. Lol! So true! Trust me. Argued with BAC many a time last ten years. Ignore at your own peril. Just sayin! UCLA, Washington, 0regon…not true
Aztecs lose any shot at a 4. Could be a 6 when all is said and done. Boise could be anywhere from a 6 to 9...could get a co championship should Utah State lose tomorrow...edit they were swept by the Aggies so they really wouldn't be co champsSan Diego State v Boise
Very entertaining
You may be right !At the SDSU game. Brutal heave 3 pointer from the hip changed the game. Boise player also jumped from back court no call that no one talking about
Mountain West tournament should be epic

Good night Memphis unless they win the conference tournament.FAU up on Memphis 41-35...win for Owls here will lock them up for a bid while Memphis absolutely needs this to keep their slim hopes alive
St Johns struggling vs Georgetown up only 26-24 in first half.
yep thats it for them. FAU wins 92-84 and is dancing for sure and now highly likely avoiding first four gamesGood night Memphis unless they win the conference tournament.
Monmouth wins big !Monmouth as the 8 seed opens up its CAA Conference Tournament at noon Vs 9 seed Campbell.

High Point is an expansion candidate for CAA along with Fairfield and Albany.top seeded High Point goes down to Longwood in the Big South semis. 80-79. UNC Asheville takes on Gardner Webb for the right to face Longwood in the finals
