Strange things would have to happen, though. I saw Hackman’s tweet and then went to Bball.net simulator and saw there some holes. Although he ran his simulator 100,000 times and got nothing. Quote

I'd probably go by median instead of average though Indiana St missed at #28 and St John's missed at #32 so its not an exact if NET is X, then you make it. Thank you! Quote

Uspshoosier Posted March 2 Author Posted March 2 Hoosiers with a solid Q2 road win. 4-5 on the road this year and 5 wins away from home. 0 losses in the Q2-4 area. Welcome to the right side of the bubble that doesn’t include Dayton (for now). Win at Oregon and they are probably dancing regardless of what happens against Ohio st and the B1G tourney. Just would worry about bid stealers in that case. Win the next 2 games and they are locked in RaceToTheTop, hoosierdogg, hoopsta007 and 4 others 6 1 Quote
Hoosierfan1901 Posted March 2 Posted March 2 And now the Hoosiers have officially a clinch a spot in the BTT LIHoosier, hoosierdogg, hoosierfan6157 and 3 others 6 Quote
RaceToTheTop Posted March 2 Posted March 2 IU up to 47 on Pom. Believe they were at 50 after their last game. Move up three spots on Torvik as well to 55. Indiana should move ahead of Nebraska in NET now. Nebraska was at 54 and just took a Q3 home loss to Minnesota while IU had a road Q2 win. IUHoosier5 and HoosierHoopster 2 Quote
Uspshoosier Posted March 2 Author Posted March 2 Another advantage of playing in the B1G and SEC? South Carolina and Washington are the worse teams in each conference however their numbers are still good enough to fall in the Q2 area when teams play them on the road. If you slip up against a bottom feeder in these 2 leagues it’s still a Q2. Slip up in the ACC or bottom of the Big East and you’re looking at a Q4 loss. B1G and SEC gives their bubble teams an advantage over the rest of the leagues and since those 2 leagues did the best during the non conference they will get the extra bids along the cut line IUHoosier5, Dave from Dayton, Jeff Flabjohns and 3 others 6 Quote
