UCF in our out?

[Husky92]

So, UCF got blown out today. I know some Boneyarders don't give a hoot about our conference, but for those who do, what do you think about UCF? Do they make the tourney based on the season, or get left out because of their weak showing today? And, does Memphis make it in and become the 5th AAC team in? Five bids from this league (if we get them) ain't bad.

I think UCF out could open door for Memphis.

 

[BFieldHusky]

Their NET coming into today was 28 I believe. They are in. Today hurt their seeding, but they are in.

For reference, everyone has St. Johns in. Their NET is 72.

If UCF is out, Aresco need to bring a flamethrower to the selection committee.

 

[navery12]

They're a lock, no borderline top 25 team is being left out

 

[A10 fan]

UCF should still be in. Memphis is definitely a threat to win this thing though. What Memphis finishing so strong says, is that the coaching staff is competent, and not a disaster like at St. John's. Memphis will likely be very dangerous next year.

UCF is a lock...................Temple on the other hand needs a win to solidify spot.

 

[Robertelamin]

Didn’t UCF beat Houston and Cincy? There is no way they are getting left out.

 

[UconnU]

UCF and Temple are locks. Memphis is playing for a spot tomorrow.

 

[Husky92]

Temple's playing pretty well against Wichita State right. Not that I have any like for Temple, but I'd like to see them win and earn a birth. Since we're here for the foreseeable future, I'd love to see the AAC make a little noise. Houston was impressive today. I know we had a rough shooting game, but Houston was lights out. I'd like to see them keep it up in the tourney.

Temple isn't a lock. I bet Memphis takes their spot now.

Houston is the only team from the league who can win a game. UCF goes too dumb on offense too often and Cincy is coached by Cronin. Temple showed no poise in the 2nd half, not a good trait for a team this time of year. I hope for our sake Houston goes on a tear. If they are pretenders it makes our performance against them today even worse in hindsight.

AAC gets no more than four and even three wouldn't shock me as wrong as that might be. We have seen it before.

It's not the conference. Once UConn's season's over all my basketball watching is NBA. The college game is becoming unwatchable.

 

[Husky92]

Well, looks like Temple played their way out of the dance. 3-4 bids looks likely now. Too bad for the league and its perception.

 

[EBonz30]

UCF is a lock in.

 

[ucawn]

UCF is a lock. Trample however...

 

[billybud]

The bubble is shrinking...but UCF is a lock...Temple has to watch the bubble.

With Gonzaga losing their title game to St. Mary's...there was another bubble slot gone.

And Rhode Island knocked out VCU to advance to the semi finals and could grab a bid.

Memphis could be in if they advance in tournament... by beating Houston.

The Gators won when they had to....beating LSU.. grabbed a bid, I think.

Minnesota and Oklahoma moved off of the bubble to lock, I also think.

 

[storrsroars]

Temple isn't a lock. I bet Memphis takes their spot now.

As of this morning, on the NET rankings, Temple fell from 51 to 54 while Memphis climbed from 54 to 46. So at the very least they've exchanged positions at 54.

If Memphis isn't blown out in the next game, they're as good a candidate as any for an 11-seed play-in.

UCF is a lock. C'mon.

OUT, no strength of schedule

 

[whaler11]

UCF is in. Temple needs to be rooting for the Buffalos of the world today

I wouldn’t say that. They SHOULD be a lock. But in 2014, SMU was ranked the week of Selection Sunday and still didn’t get in.

IF he said that he may or may not be accurate but it's a dumb thing to say. Maybe in relation to your lovely Duke team they "stink" but bubble teams have been known to make runs in the Tourney.

Also the "bubble" teams will be seeded 11th or 12th so doesn't that mean that all the teams in lesser conferences seeded 13 - 16 "stink"even more?.................I'm sure they all appreciate that being said about them.

The bubble teams do stink. This year is a really weak bubble
