Up to 18 in Kenpom

[UofCT]

UNC wins vs "tournament" teams: VT (n), FSU (h), Cuse (h)
UConn wins vs "tournament" teams: USC (n), Xavier (a), Seton Hall (a)

Common Opponents:
Marquette. UConn is 2-0 vs Marquette (including a road win), UNC is 0-1 vs Marquette (at home).

Not bashing you at all BTW. Just pointing out that Lunardi is an idiot / biased to ESPN's partners (ACC). Not sure how UNC could jump us on the seed line with the same resume and a home loss (by double digits) to a common opponent we beat twice.

Again I am just trying to justify Lunardi's decision. I choose to follow Jerry Palm for obvious reasons but when you look at UNC being 8-0 in quad 2 versus us being 3-3 that's a big difference.

I like what you did there, that's a nice piece of business

Very low hanging fruit but someone had to take it

UConn only dropped 1 spot back to 18 after Creighton loss. I still think we'll be a 7 seed at worst.

Hopefully USC wins tonight vs very good Colorado team and makes Pac 10 finals.

God I hope you are right but I am feeling an 8 or 9

Not off to such a good start.

I don't see a 9, but an 8 is definitely in play.

I still expect a 7, but I think a 6 is unlikely now. Too many teams we had to leapfrog and lost tonight was a killer.

I'm feeling:
8 - 30%
7 - 60%
6 - 10%

If AAC - 9 seed
but since we are Big East - 7 seed

please god let us be a 7

Back up to 17 after the Georgetown win (and ahead of Creighton who dropped 9 spots to 19)

That's pretty hilarious. We did actually drop slightly in the metric, but Creighton just dropped a heckuva lot more so we moved a rank up.

I believe we will end up as a 7th seed. It would be nice to get the 6th seed, but 7th seed is more realistic.

16 in KenPom now

Oregon St beating Colorado in Pac 12 tourney last night boosted USC to 14 & UConn to 16

This morning, after Creighton got killed last night, they're UP 5 spots to #13 in Massey. Makes zero sense.

Well, the flip side is that our two convincing wins over Georgetown look MUCH better now. I’d say we’re solidly a top 15 or 20 team. When we play well we’re on part with a top 10 team, but we’re capable of looking bad as well. Still, even when we look terrible we play good teams close.
