Can you make NCAA with only 2 road wins?

Recommended Posts

iirc, the NCAA groups road and neutral wins (i.e. wins away from home) together in determining who makes it and seeding. That's why so many schools, IU included play in neutral games and tournaments in lieu of real road games.

Doubt you are correct on this. Name me another top 50 team that played zero true road games before conference .

Crean doesn't make the B1G, B1G/ACC challenge, or Crossroads Classic schedule. And NO ONE plays many, if any, road games in the out of conference.

Id say IU only team that plays zero road games before conference and the quality of the non conference ?

Not saying the quality of our non-con is great. And you can look up if anyone else plays zero road games, that wasn't my point. The fact that we are in the Crossroads Classic and that the ACC/B1G game alternates has nothing to do with Crean is my point. That's 2 major non-con games right there. The majority of the rest is fluff, just like everyone else's.

Not sure TC schedule died them any favors come selection Sunday

ask lunardi, Palm and every other bracket projecting site that has Iu with the 25-30 best resume to this point in the season. They all think the schedule was good enough It might not be up to your standards but the people that get paid to project the field don't have a problem with our schedule

That is a minor portion of non conference schedule. My point is Crean is afraid to play road games and that will come back to bite IU when you examine the body of work.

Kentucky played one on 12/27 in Louisville. There are plenty of other programs that do this.

crean played zero and I would say at Louisville counts as more than one

When they get mentioned as a bubble team re- read this to understand
