BACATOLOGY: 3/11 NCAA Tournament Analysis***Rutgers 95% in***

[bac2therac]

welcome to the dance, 12-20 Texas Southern

 

[Scangg]

You just want a Rutgers game in San Diego

He's on to me

 

[fatsam98]

SDSU hold on please. Even though I have no idea if this game really matters

 

[kcg88]

wouldnt be shocked if the committee gave them a 9 based on metrics, its always hard to figure out what they will do. When you think they are going right, they go left

I would bet the committee puts them in an 8-9 or 7-10 with Florida Atlantic. They love putting mid-majors together like Murray State-San Francisco last year.

 

[kcg88]

No bubble impact but the MAC title game has been good basketball. Kent State and Toledo both very very good 13 over 4 candidates.

 

[RUBlackout7]

How Utah St is above us is crazy. They do not look good.

 

[Scangg]

They don't like top 20 NET good but SDSU like Rutgers makes most teams not look so good

 

[Plum Street]

Mountain west good game

Big east game stinks

 

[knightfan7]

SDSU hold on please. Even though I have no idea if this game really matters

SDSU holds on to defeat USU 62-57

 

[Mr Magoo_rivals90743]

OMG. Listening to Avery Johnson is as bad as listening to Bill Walton. Not a good sign.

 

[bac2therac]

I hate when they do that

 

[fatsam98]

LETS GO OWLS

This is the important one.

 

[Plum Street]

It’s crazy at MSG with those courtside seats that are right next to the bench

 

[knightfan7]

LETS GO OWLS

This is the important one.

Drawing a blank. Who?

 

[kcg88]

Drawing a blank. Who?

Florida Atlantic

 

[kcg88]

Really sucks for someone if UAB wins. I think there's a sizeable dropoff from the current consensus field (Rutgers, Miss State, Arizona State, Pitt, NC State, Providence) to the teams out (Nevada, Oklahoma State, Clemson). Someone's gonna be sick tomorrow if UAB wins.

 

[RUsojo]

This is gonna be a good game. Had a longggggg day haven’t been able to watch much basketball I’m really gonna enjoy dialing in to this one.

 

[rucoe89]

Florida Atlantic

Does it help or hurt us if FAU wins?

 

[RutgersNo1]

Does it help or hurt us if FAU wins?

We need FAU to win

FWIW UABs predictive metrics are better than half of the consensus field teams you listed.

 

[BeantownKnight]

UAB-FAU look like they're playing in a high school gym.

Also, these teams are awful.

 

[kcg88]

FWIW UABs predictive metrics are better than half of the consensus field teams you listed.

So?

 

[Mr Magoo_rivals90743]

This game is like all of their hair is on fire.

 

[armenius]

I've got Rutgers as my last protected 11 meaning if UAB wins, the Knights will slide into Dayton and one of the last four in will be removed from the field.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

We’d be screwed if the team with the better logo won.

 

[Plum Street]

Is “bid thief” a new term? Didn’t hear it used much in the past.

Us, if we’re in Dayton because of it.

Nope

 

[Mr Magoo_rivals90743]

It is a cool logo.

 

[scarletknight077]

At this point there isn’t much left to affect us. Just this uab game. So are we a last bye or dayton?

 

[Plum Street]

UAB has cool logo

 

[kcg88]

At this point there isn’t much left to affect us. Just this uab game. So are we a last bye or dayton?

That's the prevailing consensus but the committee works in mysterious ways.

 

[BillyC80]

UAB plays a very physical game.

 

[Mr Magoo_rivals90743]

Did everyone see Jerry Palm’s last four in flash across the screen? We are currently his last team in…still. Which means UAB wins, they knock us out. What a jackass. Doesn’t he get tired of being wrong?

 

[ScarletWalk11]

Both teams are taking some wild fast break attempts

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

This is NOT a rock fight.

 

[RUBlackout]

Why is he wrong? That scenario is what has been talked about on these boards and the concern

Go back to sleep

 

[RUsojo]

So?

Not sure how sick it is for those teams with worse predictive metrics if UAB get in is all.

Comparatively, UAB would/should be more sick if/when they lose that one of those other teams would be in over them.

 

[Mr Magoo_rivals90743]

Lmao. You’re clueless. We’re not out with a UAB loss. It’s about going to Dayton. You are asleep.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Mascot cool too…damn it
