Locked into the 8/9 game?

Amen! The notion that losing to a team twice increases one's chances of beating them a third time is absurd.

JB is 10-3 all time against teams trying to go 3-0 against him.

I would imagine though that those teams that JB was 0-2 against prior to that 3rd game he had winning percentages against overall. Maybe not though, but I would think. JB's record against Dixon since Dixon has been at the helm is a putrid and embarrassing 6-14. Fingers crossed though!

Georgetown 2012-2013 comes to mind. Didn't we lose to them twice during the regular season then beat them in the BET semis?

yep, and we were beaten badly in the first two - absolutely embarrassed in the 2nd one at the end of the reg season

The last 7 teams that went 2-0 against us in the regular season and tried to get a 3rd all failed. They were:

Gtown 2013
UConn 2006
UConn 2005
Notre Dame 1997
St. John's 1993
Nova 92
Nova 91

All Made the NCAA's except for Nova '92 and ND '97.
