So are we in?

[BugsyCT]

A win over Temple would probably clinch it, but will this epic win vs Cincy be enough to sway the committee?

 

[Matrim55]

Yeah, we're #29 in Kenpom, we're top 30 BPI, and probably top 50 RPI now. No way we're out, even if we take another L tomorrow.

 

[CallMeBruce]

I think that they'd consider the 4OT game the day before extenuating circumstances if we lose to Temple tomorrow.

But we won't. Ollie haters are going to be citing Adams' shot as the lucky reason that Ollie won his second national championship.

 

[superjohn]

Yes we are in, without a doubt.

 

[3rdbass]

Let's win tomorrow and remove all doubt but I have to say we are in after beating Cincy. Cincy has to make it too as they are definitely the next best team in the AAC outside SMU and us.

 

[Hi-Low]

I don't want to hear the word Bubble & UConn (or Cincy for that matter) in the same sentence again in 2016....UConn should be locked into a 10 seed at minimum....resume is very solid now.

 

[CL82]

We're Doomed!

 

[Jerry1714]

Yeah, we're #29 in Kenpom, we're top 30 BPI, and probably top 50 RPI now. No way we're out, even if we take another L tomorrow.

That Kenpom and BPI ranking before the game, going to be even better now. I believe our RPI is now 45, and we added a top 50 RPI win today

I think they are in - but no reason to not approach Temple like they aren't.

Eamonn Brennan says, "The committee does not consider 'awesomeness of most recent victory' in its comparisons of various bubble teams."

Sounds like everyone at ESPN is depressed after that game. Has both Cincy and UConn with "Work left to do". Clowns. All of them.

Yeah, I read that weak commentary. Sounds like ESPN really doesn't want to see us in and isn't impressed with that win. UGH! ESPN!!! GO UCONN!!!

If Cincy has "work left to do" that doesn't bode well.

They should be in, but at this point the only "work" they'll be able to do is stick a couple of pins in their Jalen Adams voodoo doll.

May have picked up 2 with Michigan winning. They might be Top 50 now.

 

[Hankster]

If you remember, when we beat Butler for the NC, Jay Bilas called it the most boring basketball game he ever saw. I watched him say it. Not congrats, wtg UConn.

Sounds like a total azzhat. It was an incredible level of play and intensity. That's what you want in the tournament. Both should be in.

Such tools if they having any of the following ahead of us in next bracket.....St. Mary's , Monmouth, Vandy, Oregon State, Pitt, Witchita St....they are all out of their conf tourneys, all have worse resume's and should all be behind us. Also if Lunardi had Cincy as a 9 seed before the game that spot should now be ours or a 10 seed at very least.

How do they think Cincy is going to do work?

 

[BUConn10]

So are we now the biggest Michigan fans in the world? Them winning the Big10 tournament would be absolutely HUGE for us as we stomped them by 17 or so with little trouble, and they have the talent to win it all.

 

[superjohn]

Our resume should put us easily in, I don't know why this is even a debate.

 

[Tdaley]

We are in!!! Our numbers are too good to be left out.

 

[ASweet3781]

Lunardi said on SportsCenter he is gonna move us into the Last 4 in.

 

[Hi-Low]

Hey Lunardi, update your bracket already...if St. Joes had won that game you would have them as a 1 seed in 30 seconds!

 

[Hi-Low]

Lunardi said on SportsCenter he is gonna move us into the Last 4 in.

What a tool, I bet he still has Monmouth ahead of us....I just moved St. Joes to my last 4 out

 

[Stinger92860]

Not yet, but we will be in after our double digit win tomorrow.

 

[jrazz12]

Lunardi said on SportsCenter he is gonna move us into the Last 4 in.

Aww how thoughtful of him. He moved Colorado and Oregon State up a seed line today after losses yesterday. Moving us up a couple places on the curve after winning an epic conference tourney game against a top 50 RPI team must have really taken some effort.
