yes beating Providence is a strong win. OOC matters, its important to committee, body of work. League wins are important to but Ooc is 1/3 of the season. RU performed mediocre with a sos of 308
Providence is interesting from a seeding perspective to me. They are unbeaten 15-0 at home but only .500 on the road with their best win at nova. Would really like to see them beat one of the other ranked 4 on the road or at the garden before I believe in them as a 2nd weekend tournament team.
Providence has lost one game in two years at home. So if it was done it would be a major accomplishment. Miami beat Providence on a neutral court at Mohegan.
Top four teams in Big East are like 28-0 at home against each other. Only team that has a road victory is Xavier at Uconn. ( Uconn not in top 4)
Louisville has been improving lately. They played Miami fairly close and then only lost to UVA by 3
Yup slightly a case of bad timing for Clemson but... They're down 14 to a really really bad team.
I’m not arguing about their resume just not set in stone that they’re an automatic 4 or 5 seed. Their resume is good so far, but when watching them against us I wasn’t saying wow are they good and if the stumble I could certainly see them drop to 6 or 7 seed
I would agree especially since it was one of Providence's first five games of the season and they were replacing five starters from previous year. Miami is a very good team though.
There is a reason our NET and Ken Pom rating is higher than Miami. We beat better teams and beat some good teams like MD and Indiana convincingly
Yes plus the Big Ten is quite a bit better then ACC. ACC has a lot of land mines as Clemson is finding out today.
Yes and that kind of worries me come tournament time. If you exclude uconn the best road win of the top 4 is Creighton beating Arkansas. Not sure how that translates come ncaa time.
