at wake, at clemson

[CorduroyG]

Gonna have to at least split these 2 games, or possibly win them both. Got zero confidence we’re beating unc or uva.

If we just beat wake and finish 10-8 in acc are we in? I think that’s how it’s gonna shake out.

 

[Briancuse]

I think we need two more. Can we get them, I really don't know.

 

[Cuse1055]

As many others have mentioned previously, the field is EXTREMELY weak this year. We are comfortable with room for error. Now if we lose every game then no we won’t get in, but if we get 10 league wins we’re in IMHO. Louisville was the big win we needed.

Your thinking is wrong.

FFS with this trash.

 

[Briancuse]

FFS with this trash.

Dude what is your problem

 

[Briancuse]

Your thinking is wrong.

If we don't get two more we will be sweating it out on selection sunday.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Dude what is your problem

That you never back up opinions with any data or facts. Maybe read jncuses threads on the tournament for once.

Oh yeah and there’s 4 games left. It’s not like the team is going to roll over and quit.

 

[pearl31]

If we don't get two more we will be sweating it out on selection sunday.

Again, you’re wrong.

 

[Briancuse]

Again, you’re wrong.

So we beat wake lose in the first round of the acct we are are a lock?

 

[pearl31]

So we beat wake lose in the first round of the acct we are are a lock?

Yes

 

[Briancuse]

Yes

What if bubble teams start winning and upsets happen in tourneys? We win one more game before selection sunday no one should feel safe.

 

[syrBossHogg]

What if bubble teams start winning and upsets happen in tourneys? We win one more game before selection sunday no one should feel safe.

There would have to be at least a half dozen conference tourney upsets before we have to start sweating

 

[Day2]

If we just beat wake and finish 10-8 in acc are we in?

Yes.

 

[Day2]

If we don't get two more we will be sweating it out on selection sunday.

You will. Most of us won't.

 

[Day2]

What if bubble teams start winning and upsets happen in tourneys? We win one more game before selection sunday no one should feel safe.

What if you paid attention to the rest of the college basketball world for a change?

 

[Tony DeFranco]

Of course we need two more wins - be it one of the last four and and an ACC tourney game - right now we are in the tournament with the chance of getting bumped out - our chances are good - we can and should be able to get two more wins

Have you watched college basketball this season outside of SU? Legitimately one of the worst fields the game has seen in a long time. Oklahoma who is 5-10 in conference play is projected as a 10 seed. SU would have to lose every game left and they still could get in. That's how bad college is thos year.

 

[Eric15]

I also would like to win two more games down the stretch to feel comfortable on Selection Sunday, because I just don't trust the committee and I'm a risk-averse person by nature. I apologize for the extremely controversial post.

Are we in? Without question, IMO. Some very good wins. A handful of the losses were without Frank, which matters now. And the bubble doesn't really exist this year.

 

[Cuse1055]

Think some posters are looking for controversy where it doesn’t exist. The sky isn’t falling and won’t fall unless we lose out. Even then, we still have a much stronger resume’ than at least 10 teams behind us.

Brian got a lot of heat for saying he wanted to win two more games. You're saying the "sky will fall" if win zero more games. So does that mean that winning one more game is the only scenario wedged between "looking for controversy" and "the sky falling?" Man that's a razor thin margin of subjectivity.

He didn’t get heat from me. Just trying to think reasonably based on the info jncuse has provided and have a conversation. But yes we’re solidly in right now and I for one will not be worried on selection Sunday with one more win. But that’s just me, Go Orange .

Spot on.

Seriously.

Beat Wake, lose first round ACCT and we're just in without worry? okay.

It's science. Apparently.
