I expect we'll still be the 3rd to last team in after the weekend. I think Georgetown will replace Stanford as the last team in. Arkansas and Virginia will swap places with us sandwiched in between.

They are 7-2 over their last 9, including wins at a ranked Arizona, where they held Arizona to their lowest point total of the season and vs ranked Colorado. Them winning out is unlikely, but going 4-1 is possible. Then they have to hope the committee is willing to forgive their early season losses as a product of having a new coach and look at their record over their last 14 games (would be 11-3 with multiple Q1 victories if they finish 4-1). |

There's definitely an argument to be made that they should, especially given that Jarron was injured. The difference is, as long as we only drop one more we should be in the tournament regardless. UCLA needs to lose at most one game and hope the committee focuses on their last 14ish games.

I think our bad losses and UCLA’s are pretty on par. We have 3 tier 3 losses they have 1 tier 3 loss and one tier 4
But they lack Q2 wins. But if UC and UCLA both managed to win out. I’d probably take UCLA’s resume just because it would have 7 tier 1 wins |

We really think UCLA could win out? I could easily see them losing 3 of their final 5. They have a hard schedule. I get the are playing better but they still aren’t that good. They have 3 road games. Those alone are going to be hard to win.

If we go 4-1, losing to Houston, I think we get in easy. We obviously have to play much better. Wichita is going to give us everything they have and @usf is no joke. Houston will most likely lose 1-2 more.

We have a week at home. That should help recharge the batteries to some extent.

Is there any UC fan who wouldn't take a first weekend(ish) game against a Mick Cronin team?
