It is huge and much change. That and the Quad 3 losses did it. Play a holiday neutral court tourney. It matters! We know that now.
Looks like it could be Yale in the NIT

Out of conference schedule
- Thread starter RU72
- Start date
OOC schedule doesn’t matter. Try not losing to temple and shu next time
And Minnesota and Nebraska
23-10 and we wouldn’t have been sweating
You seem connected to Pikiell and company. May want to let him know. This Board sees it as clear as day. Not sure Pikiell does.
Playing tougher OOC games isn't changing anything......you don't get rewarded for it.
Yup. NC State got a bye with the #307 SOS.
We need to stop being cute with the schedule
Either cuocakes or power games
Temple in Mohegan Sun and st Bonnie in Toronto …bad
Dump the mid majors ….cuocakes or resume games and no middle ground

I would eliminate any tough games particularly any stupid fing games at Mohegan sun and the like.
This
The committee f’ed up
They clearly treated all Q1 wins and Q3Q4 losses the same. It’s an absolute shame. NC state did nothing all year.
ONE QUAD 1 WIN LOL
Don't lose to OSU...oh, wait a minute...we actually didn't lose to them
. Someone said that they would note that in tournament evaluation...guess it wasn't considered very much, if at all. GO RU!Maybe don't have a game stolen by the refs...
Is it Pike's fault that ND (the Mohegan game) and Gonzaga didn't want to play RU and backed out of what were expected OOC games?
Just win the lower team games…OOC means nothing when you lose to Nebraska and Minny!!
Beat those two teams and we are in. Beat the teams we are supposed to beat. NC state proved that with a clean resume.
Well we're off to a good start scheduling LIU Brooklyn already right? Smh
Same as last year. If we didn’t lose to very bad teams - is this even a conversation?
Let’s win all the easy games then complain it might not be enough.
If the team scored 20 pts in the second half at home against SHU, they would have won the game.
Does anybody think we're in if we lost to Gonzaga instead of Temple? Of course not.
Are we in if we beat Alabama A&M instead of losing to Temple? Almost certainly.

Rutgers had five losses at the RAC which is unacceptable in a down year in the B1G Ten and Seton Hall only scored 48 points to defeat Rutgers.
Seems like you can only get punished for losing...not much to gain otherwise. When you're in a strong conference, as we now are, we have to avoid in-conference WTF games. Even in-conference it's the same...Minny game killed us. Did sweeping PSU and playing Purdue tough all the time help us tonight? We still have an image problem in some places. I'm also afraid we have no one at Rutgers that has any presence/influence anywhere in the world of college athletics. GO RU!
It matters..nc state lost to kansas not temple
And NC State is still in if they beat Western Carolina instead of losing to Kansas. The Kansas game did nothing for them.
The ncaa committee specifically values non conference performance
Yet the same posters continue to say it doesn't matter
Mississippi State had an ok resume but not great...but they beat Marquette and TCU..it matters when you have other warts
Providence did nothing ooc but didnt have bad losses
You cannot check two red flag boxes and we did

NC STATE HAD 1 QUAD 1 win!! all year! and they didn’t even have to play in dayton. let that sink in. clear ACC bias. quad Q wins are not factored in apparently, nor are road wins or road quad 1 wins and then wins against tourney teams. All that matters is beating teams you’re supposed to apparently. They lost to a team not in the tourney 3 times.
Selfishly, I want to play in a destination tourney for 4 days against good competition. If we lose them, we lose them.
By the way, I blame you because you declared us in a long time ago. Your predictions over the years stay consistent. LOL.
Best of Luck,

The problem is 99.9% the losses and 0.1% the schedule.
13 of 14 B1G teams played in a holiday tournament. It’s ridiculous to be an outlier here. It’s a selling point to recruits also.
Go 20-13 with our schedule and there are no issues.
Upgrade our schedule and go 17-16 and you don’t get in either.
We needed more depth and couldn’t afford Mag injury it wasn’t the schedule.
