BACATOLOGY: 2/19 NCAA TOURNAMENT ANALYSIS****RUTGERS WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY OUT AS OF 2/22***
- Thread starter bac2therac
- Start date
Syracuse who was beyond the top 16 schools out kept their slim hopes alives by moving to 18-10 holding off Nore Dame
Iowa now up on Illinois
A win will move them at least to somewhere on the first 4 out but possibly move them in the field depending upon results around them

Typical Iowa game with lots of scoring and very little defense.Illinois sustained scoring at crunch time to win the game .Coleman was the difference maker with 30 points.
Iowa misses a big opportunity but will have another shot hosting Ilinois before the season is over. For now remain on the next four out line
big win for them...just their 2nd quad one win and although they are just 6-9 overall in Q1/2 there are no bad losses and the NET was 27 heading into today. While I do not like their road mark at 1-7 now they can nip that in the bud by winning at Notre Dame and Va Tech. Also close out at home vs Ga Tech and Clemson...do they have to win all 4 to stay in the field....I think 3-1 keeps them in
So while I will move them in for today its no lock....AND not sure that Texas A & M is necessarily out...the 3 Big East bubbles are all vulnerable and its looking like the loser of Butler-Seton Hall will move out of the field for now
Kansas State got a big Q1 win over BYU to improve to 16-11....3-5 in Q1, 7-10 Q1/2
games with WVU, at Cincy, at Kansas, Iowa State loom. If they can win the first 2 and split the last 2 I think they have a decent shot to get back into the field. I am alot higher on them than some other bracketologists. Obviously the overall NET at 76 is an issue but they now have wins over Kansas, BYU, Baylor, Providence and Nova

from the furthest reaches of the bubble, NC State goes to 17-10 with a win over Boston College
Hurray for Stonehill who moved to 3-25 on the season by defeating St Francis

Cincinnati down 20 at TCU. This likely will knock them out of the next four out line onto the on deck circle or possiby worse, replaced by Kansas State. Bearcats headed in the wrong direction
You missed my point. Yes they are awful. But if we beat them it does nothing for the net.
Ole Miss starting to fade out of the picture losing big at home to South Carolina. The Gamecocks themselves needed this win to stop a possible freefall. They themselves have 4 tough games left but are projected on the 7 line now, might be able to absorb all 4 losses and still make it, though I wouldnt want to try that theory
And Nebraska has a nice win over them on the road so should move Nebby higher up the seed lines.
New Mexico does indeed suffer a Quad 4 loss at home to Air Force 78-77...wow!
Miami loses at home to Georgia Tech so we can now officially close the book on the Hurricanes at large chances
Central Florida was written off a few days ago but I will note they got a huge Q1 today over Texas Tech to improve to 14-12...still likely about 20 schools out from an at large

Grand Canyon loses their 2nd straight...this time for now a Quad 4 road loss to 12-15 Abilene Christian. Still barely the AQ in the WAC. their at large hopes are in serious serious trouble
Virginia fails in an opportunity to lock into the field by losing at home to North Carolina 54-44. Cavs still in and probably notch or so above Wake Forest but still are vulnerable
Drake is going to lose at Northern Iowa. That moves Indiana State back up to the AQ from the Missouri Valley. Drake with a 6th loss is in very murky territory when it comes to an at large bid
James Madison rallies from 15 down to beat Georgia Southern on road and keep their at large hopes alive
North Dakota falls to North Dakota State losing the AQ in the Summit....South Dakota State is now the AQ
UC San Diego tops UC Irvine in OT to force a tie atop the Big West standings, do not know the tiebreak for the AQ at this point.
Rutgers really low NET but no Q4 losses. Some of these teams having horrible losses. Showing they could lose to anyone at anytime. We got within a basket late of #2 Purdue (although last game was bad) … we have a full team that could hang with a lot of these frauds
