Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 5703489, member: 5685"] How does one determine a "high ceiling" team? Auburn hasn't put together 2 Ws in a row since January and are 3-8 in their last 11. Indiana is 1-6 in their last 7 games. Neither of those 2 teams are capable of a Sweet 16 run. Can they pull off an upset in one game? Yes, but that then throws the entire tournament off kilter. Which is bad for crowning a Champ. Upsets are fun in week 1 but not for putting together good week 4 matchups. Also upsets don't feel the same when it is a P4 team verses a Cinderella. Miami has been really struggling down the stretch. Does this loss release that pressure and make them a team that can make an NCAAT run? Or will it be like 2014 for SU where we had nothing left after losing? Or to put it another way, were all of those games close because of pressure or because they aren't that good? [/QUOTE]
