slu72 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 2 hours ago, RUBillsFan said: I'm guessing the rankings I posted aren't taking into account the incoming players (yet) and only factor in what Auburn is losing. I still think Auburn will see a drop off from this year and SLU should be better than them. You are aware who their HC is? Hell, he might sign a couple of NBA'ers who were on the final cut line and try to pass them off as foreign players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then that's one ranking prediction I'll stand behind. That would be at least two Q1 wins against a stacked field. Huge boost to our NET ranking.

The shutdown is not expected to be permanent, although after cruises restart, there will not be many of them available. I hope they are using this idle time to really disinfect the boats, all of them. I plan to take other cruises but will not be inside one of those boats until many loads of tourist go through with no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I believe we have Kansas State and BC at home. I’d be shocked if we signed up for those games otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be shocked if we signed up for those games otherwise I could see BC coming here. KState, not so sure, that was a neutral (in name only) game. However, I can see where Webber who's been cleaning up on St. L recruits would welcome a trip to the Fetz. Of course, he knows he's gonna get his clock knocked off.

thetorch Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 K St is a 3 game series. One in KC, one here, one in Manhattan. BC is a home and home. Auburn is also a series but takes a break this year because we are both playing the same tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quality Is Job 1 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 The 2019 (-20) Boston College game was part of the Gotham Classic; I doubt BC will be playing at SLU in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is Gonzaga, Michigan State, Xavier and Auburn will be pitted against SLU, Boise State, Belmont and Siena in the first round. Mix and match any way you want, then tip it up. I think this is exactly right. FWIW here is the bracket for this past season’s tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for finding. Which one of the 'top four' for next year's tourney will the organizers feel is most expendable, i.e., selected to face the Billikens. My opinion, Xavier's brand is the weakest of them, Gonzaga, Auburn and MSU, so we may get the Musketeers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speak for yourself, I predicted a 23 win SLU season lol. But in all seriousness, I do hope they find the success we had. Playing them at home next year wont do as much for our Net/Quad unless they find some success. I see they have a 4* coming in, hope he helps.

Not so fast. Auburn loses their top 6(!) players from this year. Kenpom and Brat torvik have auburn preseason ranked in the low 200's(as of now) http://www.barttorvik.com/trankpre.php Playing field: ————————— Gonzaga #1 state #16 Saint Louis #33 Xavier #40 Boise State# 94 Belmont #122 Sienna #199 Auburn #260 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papal Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Don't want to play Gonzaga in Orlando unless it means we have beaten likes of Michigan State,Xavier,etc. The Zags are obviously talented,especially upfront and would be a terrible matchup for us.
