Ryno6284 Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Does the committee take into affect the pre con teams we play that win their tourney? I know when we play them, their NET isn't good, but if/when they end up getting an autobid, does that look any different from an IU perspective as a W? Hope this makes sense! Quote

Most of those are still Q4 games however it does add a win against the field but the only thing that would move to the needle would be if a high major team you played went on a run and won their conference tourney.

RaceToTheTop Posted March 10 Posted March 10 @Uspshoosierdoes the fact that IU played only three Q4 games have any pull? FWIW, only 5 teams played 3 or fewer Q4 games. Quote

FWIW, only 5 teams played 3 or fewer Q4 games. Each individual committee member can bring it up when they are evaluating teams if they want. It won’t hurt when they are comparing to bubble teams that have played 7 or 8 Q4 games and a non con sos in the 250 +. Even with ius terrible non con they lucked out most their buy games ended up being Q3 and their non sos is acceptable Quote
Uspshoosier Posted March 11 Author Posted March 11 St Marys did their job now the Zags turn to shut out any bid stealers out of the WCC Quote
JimmerNoe Posted March 11 Posted March 11 How many true bid steal opportunities are out there this year? I know VCU, Gonzaga/St. Mary, Drake all need to win so that makes 3. Are there any others that are primed to cause trouble if the favorite loses? Quote

VCU is not guaranteed to get an at-large if they lose their tourney. A-10 might be a 1 bid league however hard to put a number on it because teams can win the migh major leagues that could steal a bid like NC State did last year. Usually around 2 or 3 bids get taken in a year however last year 5 were stolen Quote
RaceToTheTop Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Winthrop dropped to a Q4 win for IU. Rutgers is now at net 76 — if they could finish at 75, they would move to Q2 win. Quote

Hovadipo Posted March 11 Posted March 11 @Uspshoosier I have a theory that Lunardi has an actual bracketology setup that he does for his own, but the one that we all see and is submitted to the matrix is for clicks and engagement for ESPN. You can't do this for as long as he has and be THAT bad at it right? WayneFleekHoosier and Uspshoosier 2 Quote

He definitely does things for clicks and then when it gets closer submits the real one. Ryno6284 and cybergates 1 1 Quote
