De'Andre Ayton for Arizona is amazing.

But 8 Top-100 wins, good SOS, NCSOS. Good RPI. 13 Road and Neutral wins. Good advanced metrics. They're a lock IMO.
its quads now not top 50

So Texas southern, St. Bonaventure, Buffalo, and Toldeo all won tonight. UVA will maintain their #1 RPI spot (Clemson winning probably would have been better for us), but UNC, who beat us twice, will beat Duke, who beat us once - so that will help our slightly too.
There's a good chance we will have played the winner of: ACC Championship (guaranteed), A10 Championship, MAC Championship (guaranteed Buffalo vs. Toldeo), Big 12 Championship, SWAC Championship, MAAC Championship (winner - Iona) and the IVY League. Colgate also lost in their conference title game. Oakland and EMU (played Toledo) both lost in the semi-finals.
In our short, our RPI keeps improving - there is a chance we played 19 of our 33 games vs. Tournament teams (2 of those are ND and Louisville)

Yes. Oregon needs to win the P12 to get in; we need Oregon to win tonight, make the Pac12 title game, and lose to Arizona.

The risk being an Oregon win over Arizona and then USC and UCLA get in and there is another stolen bid. I think I would rather have USC beat them, I think the PAC 12 has 3 bids right now, although both LA teams are pretty blah.

Let’s hope it isn’t 19, if those two get in we are dead.
Palm still has us in as well. USC is out on his bracket. Makes me think Oregon needs to win for us to keep a spot.

I don't get palm. The last two updates he threw in Marquette out of nowhere and now St. Mary's or am I mistaken? either he's getting fed inside info, or something cuz his updates have been wacky. BTW he has us ahead of both Louisville AND SC...
Scs best wins are in Dec against middle ten st and new Mexico st.I don't think beating the Oregon schools is going to make an impact.

He has slid both of those teams back from either 10 or 11 seed line with a bye. I don't particularly think either one should be ahead of us.

ahhh- my mistake. I could have sworn marquette was below us as of yesterday... thought STM was too. (i guess i've been flipping through one to many bracketology sites lol).
They are trash. The Pac 12 is trash.

Well, that's a wrap on today. We have taken lumps since Tuesday, but there are still avenues. No more bid stealers tomorrow!

Wow. Thanks for pointing that out. That's a very impressive overall schedule. I don't believe we have any really bad losses relatively. I'm sure it compares favorably against the other bubble teams and probably many others supposedly safely in. Hope we get extra credit for this.
