This might not be the right place for this, but I was reading Bubble watch on ESPN, and Eamon Brennan was talking about Michigan, who has 3 top 100 (100!) wins this year, and I had to check Lunardi's update.

He has Michigan as a 9 seed.  He has us as one of the last 4 in, playing in Dayton.

Michigan has an RPI of 56.  We're 44.  They have two top 25 wins; good wins.  Home Maryland and Texas on a neutral site.  We have 5 top 50 wins, A&M and UConn on a neutral site, Duke on the road, plus Notre Dame and St. Bonaventure at home.  Maybe you can say the Maryland win was the best win of those, since A&M is struggling, but considering the location of the games, i'm not sure.

Michigan has 1 win from 51-100, @ NC State, who is 94.  We have 2 more wins from 51-90, Ga Tech at home and @Wake, who is 90.

Our killer is clearly the loss to St. Johns, who is below 200 in the RPI; I have no idea how that game happened.  But I really don't see how Michigan can be seeded higher than us right now.  And that's without mentioning JB missing 9 games at all.
