Lax Pick ‘em:Week 9

Hopkins is not a very good team I wouldn't count on them down the stretch. Just need to keep winning, if they can go 2-2 in the ACC and upset Cornell I think they'll be fine.
Last Monday someone who has run a lot of models for the rest of the season told me if we win 2 more games we'd very likely make the NCAA tournament. Today was 1. So, based on his models, if we win 1 more we should be ok. But I'm a little leary about that. Besides, we don't want to just be in the tournament, we want a seed so we can host the Sunday night 7:30pm first round game.

I'd say 2 more should do it depending on opponent. Hard to see how only 1 more would be enough unless it was against Cornell

I believe the person who ran the models doesn't think there are likely to be many bubble teams. I'm not sure Army's win today puts them on the bubble if they don't win the Patriot League given their weak schedule and possibly not high enough RPI. His models and conclusion likely take into account what our RPI is likely to end up being given our schedule and those of the teams in the ACC, B1G, and Ivy L.
