Bubble Watch

[Redenbacher]

We're in, baby!!!

The margin of victory for us will also help.

Random side note. I can Dayton fans from my apartment -- horns and everything. I really want them in the Big East.

Memphis lost. They have to be out.

 

[Beasts of the East]

 

[dk423]

Two nice results for us:
UNLV lost to SD State. This eliminates the one real bid stealer from the MWC. The rest are probably in.
Iowa lost to Ohio State. One more bubble team gone.

 

[Jack Williams]

Unfortunately starting to feel like A&M is gonna get in. Too many good wins and now their record is starting to look respectable

 

[MugCostanza]

Not an ideal late window for us here.

Texas A&M looking good. They can jump over us with another win or two.

Providence obviously can be a bid stealer.

The worst one might be Duke losing to NC State. An NC State win sets up a potential NC State vs Virginia semifinal matchup. If Virginia makes it to Saturday they almost certainly stay ahead of us. If this result holds any situation in which UNC doesn't win the ACC Tournament would be very bad for us.

Scheyer is the Neptune of the ACC.

 

[Anthony Mattia]

NC State about to knock off Duke

NC State about to knock off Duke

Is NC State in any brackets?

I am going out on a limb here, but I get the feeling you are not a crisis counselor.

Just trying to be a realist as it’s far from a lock that we are able to avoid being sent to Dayton

 

[dk423]

Play-in is definitely in play for us.

Is NC State in any brackets?

No they have an NET of 73 with one quad 1 win. Beating Duke helps a ton but they probably need at minimum to make the ACC finals, if not win the whole thing.

 

[dk423]

Iowa State will beat Kansas State, so thats another periphery bubble team gone.

 

[MugCostanza]

One of NC State, Virginia or Boston College is going to be in the ACC Champ game on Saturday. Not great

 

[Mean Gene]

Let’s hope it’s Boston College. At least that helps our metrics

 

[dk423]

Dayton down 2 at halftime. That would make A-10 a bid stealing conference.

 

[Andrew]

Perhaps we will be in the BET Final. If not I still think we deserve to be a #10 seed regardless but if they want to send us to Dayton we will be ready.
