I like how duke just soaked a loss to previously on the bubble ND and have suffered absolutely zero consequences. If anything it feels like their tournament prospects have improved. Meanwhile we lost to the team 16th in RPI that also beat duke and go from around the 5 seed to one of the "last teams in" according to some projections. Feels like our Colgate loss was always going to put us on a slippery slope in the eyes of the commitee. High Point could have been a similar bad loss for Duke/UVA but they continue to barely win against bad teams. I know a win is a win but you wish the committee could just eliminate High Point from consideration after only beating 1-12 Mercer and 3-10 Bellarmine both by 1 goal in April (basically that is unequivocal evidence that High Point is terrible IMO). Of course Duke will be easily taken over by either UVA if they win the ACC tourney or Penn/Yale if one of them wins the Ivy League tourney. If MD wins the Big 10 Duke would also drop. Most likely they still drop 1 or 2 spots. These projections are pretty useless until all the tourneys end since a whole lot will inevitably change.
