Some much needed optimism, since the last 2 weeks have been brutal...
I'm not certain how Bracket Matrix works, but I actually think it already reflects the results through yesterday... for all the analysts who have updated their brackets. If they haven't updated, I think they just aren't listed yet.
Seton Hall is now the third #10 seed, and 74/76 analysts have them "in". Yesterday, before their big win, they weren't anywhere close to that.
That's good news for us, since we didn't really drop. Currently we're the 1st #11 seed and 61/76 have us in. It feels like we're in free fall (because we are), but yesterday's loss wasn't that bad since it was on the road against a solid team. The Committee doesn't take momentum (recent winning/losing streak) into account.
Now, that said, we really need to win or at a bare minimum keep the DePaul game CLOSE. The BET counts as a home game for us, and DePaul is ranked #101 in NET. Fight for every single point.
