Belmont bid steel... Bubble shrinking for IU

no it shouldn't hurt us as only one team from the OVC will most likely get a bid. Belmont will get it and Murray State most likely will not.

Per Lunardi you are correct. Just don't see how a team goes from ranked to out of the field with 1 loss and multiple wins during the week

SMU knows this harsh reality all too well.

illinois st is there best win. They lost to Houston, Portland , Xavier by over 20 and Valpo by over 30. When they played anybody half way good they got destroyed. 0-1 against top 50 1-1 against top 100. Sos over 250 All this results in not making the field when u don't win your conference tournament

well that makes sense... I didn't look at their resume... Why in the heck would they have been ranked in the first place

Speaking of Illinois St, they upset Wichita St last night and face N Iowa in the Valley final this afternoon. Another bubble spot could go away.

I just want to see them play some actual competition. They've had one of the easiest schedules so far. 

Exactly, it might be a little easier to get up for big competition when there are 2 or 3 easy games in between.

They've had some scares against sub par competition. They likely can't play that way once in the tournament.

They were on a 25ish game win streak before they lost yesterday.  I'm not sure if that is worthy of a ranking when you're beating LSOP type teams.

 

Northern Iowa is playing turrrble.

Beat #8 on a Saturday. Finish off #11 on a Sunday. Another day in the life of Cinderella.

Just imagine if they still had the #1 rated offensive player in the country (NZ)

I didn't know he jumped to #1, but yeah I told my friend that yesterday during our game then while watching ISU WSU. But would he still be buried on the bench for them?
