BACATOLOGY: NCAA ANALYSIS 3/7......NEW UPDATE 3/12 1PM PAGE 37
- Thread starter bac2therac
- Start date
Lunardi seems to see it like bac sees it for RU. he has us as a not to worry at all.
It's Lunardi...he's saying richmond steals the bid from TAMU. Who knows. It will all be clear soon enough
That Richmond win knocked put Xavier in my opinion. Feel we are safe. Might be first four but in.
I hope you and Lunardi are right BAC but I’m not seeing how the committe would put us ahead of a 22-12 A&M (took out the D2 win) that won 10 games away from home and checks enough boxes with top quality wins. They will not be penalized for losing today. I see a 10 seed for them.
Hoping we can be ahead of ND, Wyoming, etc.

Bracket matrix final update BEFORE Richmond won renders it meaningless...had RU last in with 55 votes just beating out ND with 54 but the next team up was Wyoming at 89
so when the final ones come in on Monday after people have adjusted we will not be in their final predicted bracket

Where do i sign up for that?
When was the last time the 4th place team in the BIG was left out? We are in
This point has been covered over and over again the last week. It does not matter, for the millionth time.
my response to that is when was the last 4th place team in the B1G who had 12 losses?
I think we are in a very unique situation here because we have had a season of polar opposites.
Nebraska was left out 1 year based on what I read on here BUT they didn’t have the same quality wins we have had
Should not be punished for wtf losses in November and early December. That’s BS
One team not discussed a lot on here with a similarly weird resume to ours is - Alabama.
They are in of course - but how the committee views them is relevant for where bubblers like Memphis and Davidson will be placed.

Like our chances…However, we would not win the NIT. This team could beat or lose to anyone.
Maybe there could be a system like old Olympic judging where the best and worst individual scores were thrown out. Bottom line then, no individual win or loss gets you in or knocks you out in the rankings/evaluation.
We're 8-6 against teams in the NET Top 40..... then we're 5-6 against teams in the NET 80-180. Just a ridiculous resume to try to predit.
We should be penalized 100%. Those games happened. However, I think our 8 wins against teams in the field should have us in. It’s bizarre that 4 shots determined our season though.
Lafayette guard hits a 3 for the win.
UMass guard hit 3 at buzzer.
Harper hits half court shot vs Purdue
Harper misses shot Vs Northwestern.
any of those 4 go a different way, we are either way in or way out.
Only problem I have with that is I’d flip us and Indiana based on the head to head win in the past two weeks.
We don't play like trash against Lafayette
We don't collapse and blow a 15 point lead in the final 9 minutes (and an 8 point lead in the final 5 min) @UMass
We don't play like trash for half the game @ Northwestern
We had a handful of cold spells throughout the season that put us in the position we are now.
Yeah but that makes too much sense. Had they beaten Iowa yes . But we both lost. The committee won't think like that.
Bracket Dave bumped us back up to a 10 just now....
That’ll be considered if we are next to Indiana in seeding. Worry is they built enough of a cushion against us that we wouldn’t be compared in a scrub
Think team will turn down NIT. They will say that was not their goal and RU doesn't belong there at this stage.
They would accept the invite, imo. More experience against good teams to help us for next year, plus home game revenue.
