Uspshoosier Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 I just heard today that there is no committee this year. Just a computer generated field essentially. I find that hard to believe but was told that by a good source. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersThat’s false.

schoosier Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Just win baby. I think this team is playing at its best now albeit 1 win. Players are finding roles and turnovers are quickly rewarded with pine. Crunch time Romeo gets the ball, shots have looked better, and Race has been a very pleasant surprise. He takes up space and holds ground, rebounds, looks to pass first and makes our team better. Our d has also been good or better. If we can continue to get better, we probably still won’t make the tournament. But we will be fun to watch and gives momentum going into crunch time recruiting. mookied39, ALASKA HOOSIER and HoosierDYT 2 1 Quote

8bucks Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 I believe..... kind of. If nothing else, the BTT is our dance. I do have a little more optimism for next year at this point. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

They’ve put that in with an at large. 4 games under? Never. Why? Because when you are 4 games under, you aren’t a good enough team.

BGVille Hoosierfan Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 This is exactly why I think if we win out and win 1 game in the BTT we’ll be in no doubt. I remember Georgia got in at 16-14 and lost in first round of SEC tourney based on SOS alone in the early 2000s I believe. This net/quad system will do wonders for us...just have to take care of business. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
HoosierAloha Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Except they don’t as USPS has told you at least 3 times. At this point, the committee could tell him and he wouldn’t believe it.

Bobman1 Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 While I am fully on board for this discussion and also believe there is a legitimate chance we make the field, beating MSU on Saturday will be a tall task that I feel like some of us are forgetting about. The Hall's gotta be rocking and these Hoosiers gotta come out hot; I have faith and certainly believe we can run the table. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Uspshoosier Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 He may say that, but when was the last time a team that was 8-12 in conference was considered for an at-large bid?Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app1992-Iowa St (5-9) received an at-large and 1998-Florida St (6-10) received an at-large.

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Well considering this is the first time any conference has ever played a 20 game schedule, your answer is that an 8-12 team has NEVER been considered! :-) But that also means that a team that is 4 games under .500 has NEVER had 8 conference wins. Combine that with the possibility of 6-7 quad 1 wins, which no other bubble team will be able to claim, and we certainly have a chance. I'm not overly optimistic we win out though, and even if we beat MSU again, and then possibly lose to Illinois, I think a 7-13 conference record makes it impossible. mookied39 1 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appSince the B1G this year is the first conference to go to 20 games the answer to your question would be 0 since this is the first year a 8-12 conference record could happen Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
