This team is completely done. So embarrassing.

Just meltdown after meltdown

Doesn't help we have no luck either. We already can't defend. But to make matters worse opponents have an EFG% of 76 against us when shooting open shots off a pass

No one else in BE is seeing oppentents shoot higher then 56%.
Shoulda expected to lose that one. Hoyas are tough at home. Gotta win the home games left.

O I did.

It was the manner in which we lost. Along with teams never missing vs us sans Nova

Lunardi has your boys in as one of his last 4 in as of this morning.

Yup probably about right. Maybe lil higher at this point. Need 3 more to be safe tho.

Then again Palm has us nowhere to be found while Providence and Alabama are in and Ole Miss is close. Wtf lol

I think Palm uses RPI more than Lunardi does. That's my only explanation why Lunardi has Marquette in the field and Indiana still relatively close.

Palm only uses RPI.

Lunardi looks at more body of work. Although he's still got some ACC head scratchers.

And any bracket with Cuse above Marquette makes no sense. Even with the Cuse factor.

I don't necessarily mind him giving the ACC the benefit of the doubt based upon how the committee revealed their top 16. I don't think I'd have Marquette or Cuse in the field as of today. I'm getting ready to run through everybody will a bracket update. Just looking at those 2 alone, I'd favor Marquette.

Yeah it's all going to be relative to what's valued so far.

But Palm having Ole Miss over us is grounds to loss his job. The are a whopping 1 spot higher in RPi

7-7 in the shit SEC with their best wins being Vandy(whom marquette almost made disband their program) and Tennessee.

Marquette is 36 in Ken Pom, 35 in BPI.

I think Big East gets 5 in.

Marquette is a strange team. They could beat a #1 seed if they are on. They could also lose by 30 ... to Ole Miss if their defense has holes that night.

Seton Hall has a lower ceiling but are more consistent. Tough call. I don't think the others are even in the bubble discussion.

Ha not Ole Miss they suck but I get your point. We are so erratic. Probably won't get in.

Ultimately gotta win 3 more and it'll take care of itself. And hopefully the committee notices things like KenPom and shit BPI.

I don't worry much about bracketology. But when idiots like Palm have awful inclusions it makes you wonder. Alabama? Seriously compare the resumes lol

Haha. SEC teams play undisciplined as hell, but they can do some damage if they get into the dance. SEC is like the anti-Big East.

10 wins for a lock, no matter how they come.

If they can beat X and Creighton ... in.

If they can get 2 in any other way and win their BE tourney game ... in.

Have to win tonight. And it sucks it's not a good win, even though SJU is an awful matchup for us.

Huge win. Not in terms of resume but we needed that and it's against a team we do not match well with.

But no matter how many turnovers you have, when your offense clicks that much you can overcome it vs a blahh team

Nova struggling at home against Butler. I still expect then to win this easily by the end.

Butler is a good team.

And we are without our starting center. Down to 6 rotation players.

X is done. They will make the tourney but will be surprised if they win a game. Their spirit is broken.

Hopefully Blueitt and Sumner come back, but unlikely.
