This was the matrix at the start of the week.   No time for a schedule this week, but as this set of games (Mon-Thurs) is done let's see how the group did

1.  Overall there as probably 3 teams that had a good result (Quad 1 or Quad 2 Win).   Virginia Tech, Miami, Kansas St. and USC.    The rest of the wins were just Quad 3 and Quad 4 wins.

2.  Many bubble teams blew Quad 1 chances this week.    [B]Bubble teams were 2-8 in quad 1 games.  That is terrible.  [/B]We are not alone.

3.   There has not been that much pressure from below.   As noted, only 1 team below the line won either a Quad 1 or a Quad 2 game.   There were 3 teams starting the week that were getting quite a bit of attention on the matrix yet were outside.   Those team went 1-2.

So overall the week could have went worse.   If we can get something similar this weekend, we won't be that much below the line after losing at Duke.
