One Projected NCAA lax bracket 4/24: Rutgers not in

[Knight Owl]

I’m not at all. I said that a win over NJIT would have hurt their RPI.

If Rutgers loses to OSU, the BIG will be hard-pressed to get three bids (assuming Maryland or Hopkins win the BIG tourney.

Genuinely curious. Who are you a fan of?

Your statistical posts are interesting, but you do seem to have a slant.

This is true. If PSU were to beat Hopkins and lose a close one to UMD they might have a shot but would need certain things to break their way.

RPI is a crappy measure to rely heavily upon but the fact is...the tourney committee uses it.
Rutgers lost at home to Hopkins and that may keep them out. That doesn’t make me an ACC or Ivy fan.[/QUOTE]

Once again you post about RU being out. Listen, it’s very simple, RU wins tomorrow and they are in. PERIOD. Doesn’t matter what the crappy conferences do.

Rutgers lost to Hopkins by 1 at home and Syracuse lost by 10 to Hopkins at home but somehow our 1 point loss will keep us out....not buying it.

I wish that was true, but it simply isn't.

Then you do not understand that Syracuse is a big brand in lacrosse and Rutgers is not

That's more a matter of upsets in the AQ tournaments than the result of the game.

Funny. Given the possibilities for the tournament, the 2 conferences with the highest possibility of getting screwed are the B1G and the Ivy League.

Penn was riding that Duke win the whole season to stay in the mix but will need to win the Ivy tourney now to get in.

Yale and Cornell should be locks, but with the AQ factor they are not. The only Ivy that's a sure thing is whoever wins the tournament And that's the only way Penn gets in. There's a real possibility of only 1 Ivy the tournament.
