2015 Bracketology

Lunardi uses ESPN. I do not know why we played in the pre-season NIT if they were counted as home games. I was at that Gonzaga game and there wasn't much of a home court advantage.

An NCAA rule. Can't blame Lavin it was a field that got us a shot at Gonzaga and plus it's not like we were gonna go to some crazy tournament this year with Maui happening next year. If the fact that those games are counted as home games instead of neutral keeps us out of the tournament we don't deserve to go

Reading what was posted earlier in the week it sounds like the committee has some leeway with regard to whether they want to consider the NIT home or neutral games once they sit down and start talking.

Re the Xavier debate, STJ has 3 top 100 road wins, 2 top 50, Xavier 2 and 1. And Xavier are only 1-2 in neutral court games themselves with a bad loss to LB St. I am with those that don't get it.
 
If SJU beats G-Town then I won't even be worrying about other games.
Here's hopefully the last time I'm posting other games to eye.

Butler is one game ahead of us.

We should care more about conference standings that RPI when we're talking about BE teams.

How do you figure?

Butler 10-5, SJU 8-7. That's 2 games behind, plus they swept us so they have the tie breaker.
We're not catching them in the standings
 
Francesa , as usual, with no clue. Just said STJ needs 1 more win to go dancing. 1 more win- that would be ending the season 1-3 and in the NIT.

Well Lunardi said that too (in reference to Georgetown game anyways). It's very possible, but by no means a guarantee. We'd be right around 50 rpi.

So we beat , say Marq, and lose to Gtown, Nova and 1st round of BE tourney and still get an at large?

Our rpi would be right around 50 under that scenario according to rpi forecast. As Paultzman just alluded to, obviously that's not an ideal route and I wouldn't be surprised either way if we made it or not. If we win two games then we shouldn't have anything to worry about.
