SLU_Lax Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Dayton at one point down 17. They started slow and it’s fair to wonder if doing Senior Night before the game was the primary cause. Either way, I guess it worked out for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heading into today Indiana St was at 29 in the NET. Drake was at 46. I think ISU has to be a lock at this point even without having a marquee win to point to, but you can never feel to safe when you are in a P6. Drake probably has to win even with a 19 point win against Nevada who is definitely in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bay Area Billiken Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 The WCC should have two good semifinals Monday night in Las Vegas: #4 Seed Santa Clara vs. #1 Seed 23rd ranked St. Mary's; #3 Seed USF(CA) vs. #2 Seed 19th ranked Gonzaga. NET's: Gonzaga 16, St. Mary's 17, USF(CA) 63, Santa Clara 104. Re the NET, SLU's big, unexpected Win at St. Bonaventure improved SLU's NET by 21 spots to 196. The Bonnies fell 8 spots in the NET to 82, which puts Bona squarely on the NIT bubble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major strikes against Drake: TV Market size of Des Moines, IA is #67, not in a major conference, they better win if they want in. If Southern Indiana loses, major strikes against them: TV Market size of Evansville, IN is #107, not in a major conference, they better not lose. If you’re not in a major conference, the smaller your TV Market size, the higher your NET needs to be if you don’t win your conference. I guarantee everyone on the selection committee has that information readily at hand. (Of course they will deny it if asked, but that’s BS).

Lando Griffin Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 A huge recommendation for everyone to get YouTube TV. You can get the Quad box which is right now the NEC Champ, CAA Champ, the Horizon League Champ and ACc Tourney (don’t care) You can switch around to whatever game you want the volume on.

TheA_Bomb Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I'm watching this B12 WBB championship. You gotta give a hat tip to ISU. Their men's and women's teams this year have been good. Just a respectable athletic program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACE Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I'm fascinated by Temple. Accused of potential point shaving after getting destroyed by UAB at home. Since the accusations they have miraculously gone on a 3-game win streak! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slu let the dogs out? Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 For those of us that don’t want ISU and Schertz in the tournament, a big win by Oregon tonight against Arizona. Will play either Colorado or Washington State in Pac12 finals. For those that follow the various bracketology lists closely please correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think Oregon is even on the bubble.
