Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5215220, member: 1268"] We have zero chance of getting a 5 seed with a BET win. We are sitting firmly on the 8 line, and 90-95% of the season is over. Winning the BET tourney would mean beating a Nova, a similarly metricked Creighton & maybe StJ. This isn't a metric gauntlet. We aren't getting awarded for our name, or some cosmic power, etc. Teams in front of us have to lose. The committee doesn't just sit back and arbitrarily open a spots up multiple seed lines up for a team. Lose Nova & 9 seed, beat Nova & 8 seed, beat Creighton a chance to bump to a 7, beat St J chance a chance bump to 6. Our resume just isn't all that impressive. Texas isn't making the Tourney at this rate, Baylor is barely getting in.. So what, we have the Zags to talk about? That Seton Hall win did little to nothing for our resume. By the end of the regular season, we will not have one win against a top 25 team (Marquette will be falling out). [/QUOTE]
