bills10 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I remember following this site pretty closely last year. It provides a consensus bracket from every tom dick and Harry who does a bracket on their website, but I believe it correctly predicted our 4 seed last year. Right now they have us at a 6 seed. As long as we take care of business, hopefully we stay out of the 8/9 game, and even move up from there. http://www.bracketmatrix.com RPI forecast is giving us about a 5% chance to lose one or fewer games in the rest of the regular season, giving us an RPI of 10 or lower. I think two more losses should still give us a top 3 seed. Let's do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 It is interesting that this site has 5 A10 programs included in the NCAA brackets: UMass, SLU, GW, VCU, and Dayton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of way to go but it looks very likely we will stay out of the 8 and 9 game. I was thinking about doing weekly summaries of bracketologists and forecasts (99% tourney likely using Sagarin Predictor) but using the top 10 or so bracketologists (not every Tom, Richard, and Harry) to show consensus. I have looked at HOW a lot of these amateur bracketologists work and many are not worth keeping track of. A lot of the better final predictors do not even start predicting this early as well.

TheChosenOne Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I know this stuff doesn't mean anything at this point, but Joe Lunardi currently has us as a #7 seed taking on our nemesis Oregon in the opening round. He has 4 Atlantic 10 teams in as of today: UMass a #5 seed, SLU a #7 seed, GW a #10 seed, and VCU a #10 seed (one of the last four byes) with Dayton as one of the first four out. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChosenOne Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Lunardi's latest Bracketology has the Billikens moving up to #6. He has 4 Atlantic 10 teams in as of today: SLU up to a #6 seed, UMass down to a #6 seed, GW up to a #9 seed, and VCU up to a #9 seed with Richmond as one of the first four out. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
