No Question We’re In Now…Is a 7 or 6 Seed In Reach?

[auror]

If we're looking for a direct example of UConn being able to move up, last year on 3/13 Florida was an 8 seed on BracketMatrix. They won 3 games in the SEC tournament (before losing in the final on Sunday) including beating eventual 4 seed Alabama on Friday and on the NCAA seedlist they ended up as the top 7 seed.

Wow what a snag of an example - I’m not even going to ask how you found that one.

Sounds like about a seed line and a half, about right if we could win 3. Would be scraping top of 7 and bottom of 6.

Try being at the Seton Hall game, like this guy. At least Colorado wasn't established awful yet, Seton Hall was concretely horrendous.

LOL, well it looks like me and you have the BoneYard covered for witnessing losses in person to s. h. i. i. t teams. Being at the Seton Hall game is worse, not just for the aforementioned reasons in your post, but also because UConn had a 90%+ chance to win that game twice, once in regulation being up 7 with 36 seconds left and then in OT being up 5 with 25 seconds or whatever it was.

At least with me and the Colorado loss, I was able to stick around and watch the Memphis-Michigan State game and somewhat forget about the Colorado loss and I was able to enjoy the beautiful island of Maui and do all the fun activities there. But make no mistake, GIFs in my #259 post and ctbro 1999's #261 post encapsulate how I felt at the moment when UConn lost at Seton Hall and even now how I feel about that loss.

You guys are putting way, way more thought into this than committee members, who I guarantee you are not moving any teams up or down based on individual game results this late in the season.

Lunardi just moved Gonzaga off the 8 line after they beat St. Mary's.

The best thing that came out of that day was being at the sports bar across the street watching the Bama/Auburn game, and realizing I needed distance glasses. Got them and now I can watch UConn win crystal clear!

UConn is a 7-seed with 1 more win. Quality wins >> 1 or 2 freak losses.

Their resume metric average moved up a full 5 ranks in the last 2 days. I did not think it would improve that much.

Issue is that the Zags also likely jumped us with the win last night, pushing us back a spot.

Zags were typically in. I don't think anyone is calling them a bid stealer.
