BACATOLOGY: NCAA ANALYSIS 3/7......NEW UPDATE 3/12 1PM PAGE 37

[Mr Magoo]

When was the last time the 4th place team in the BIG was left out? We are in

Nebraska I believe a couple of years ago. But they didn’t compare to our resume. Regardless, 4th place in the league means nothing. And we tied for 4th. We are just as much 6th place as 4th. The “5th” place team just smoked us.

anyway, I think we are by the skin of our teeth.

Where the F is Bac. Time ticking. Doesn't coutt if revealed at 6pm

 

[DHajekRC84]

Can you post

?

 

[DHajekRC84]

And I think the team would be disinterested

Yeah. Never seen that before haha.

 

[fluoxetine]

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.

If the seniors don't want to play it, that's fine. Play the younger guys.

 

[fluoxetine]

**** Davidson.

 

[jordkap]

By not having Houston as a top 4 seed as #3 in the NET, I am cautiously optimistic we are in. Wins against top competition matters.

FINAL BRACKET POSTED

 

[goru7]

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

Why?? What cushion. ? Forget about the head to head on their home court a week ago , they were 9-11 in conference , lost a bunch of their last 10 , 4-9 on the road and didn’t play the top teams like we did. If they are ahead of us , something is terribly wrong.

Hahahaj

 

[bac2therac]

Bracket Dave bumped us back up to a 10 just now....

his final bracket too, he has always recognized us, it would be a big swing and miss for him...he loves our 8 wins

🙏

I am about to go to 5 PM Mass. I know the bracket is set but may still make a mention of it...

Pls stop talking about the NIT. I’m begging you.

Indiana does not have warts or bad losses, similar bad schedule.

Purdue and Iowa are playing better basketball right now than I’ve seen in any other league the past few days.

Don’t disagree with you, just claiming what could happen and seems to have happened in a bunch of brackets

Light a candle.

Lundardies latest. First four

decent call if this is his last

I debated heavily on Wyoming. Joe may score a coup

Where is Richmond in your bracket

 

[goru7]

Indiana does not have warts or bad losses, similar bad schedule.

You mean losing 7 of 9 to end the year with their only wins against Maryland and Minnesota before the tourney. Not playing the top teams like we did, road record. Plenty of warts. They do not have a better resume at all.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

CBS just had Indy, UM, and Rutgers all in Dayton. Really?

Wait…Palm has us in?

 

[AreYouNUTS]

May take a team vote

There is no way in hell we deny an NIT bid. None whatsoever. Everyone can get that out of their heads right now.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Wait…Palm has us in?

No sorry. Seth Davis at the half.

Smoked?? They are also BIG champs now

 

[RUTrack94]

RU
- finished 4th
- double bye
- lost to B1G champ in tourney
- beat every team this year that was in the quarters

 

[RUTrack94]

if RU gets in, it’s another step to show RU is making progress in their reputation … if not, even with recent success and ending the tourney drought, the respect isn’t there

 

[DHajekRC84]

Smoked?? They are also BIG champs now

Beat us by 10 and just beat #3 seed by 9.
Don't get me started again on the reffing we got too.

Never happen
