And it sucks that it’s this way. But it’s apparent that beating a team ranked 200 by 30 is better than either barely beating a team ranked 120 or worse losing. It costs more money to schedule those games too and it’s not like fans come out in droves to watch UC play toothpaste |

Kinda of a special case this year. New coach, half the team is new players. Players just recently started finding their roles. Still should have won but in the future I think these games are fairly safe plays. Might lose one every 4-5 years.

However I see what sedziobs is saying and I remember when he made the post. I argued you just gotta win the games. I guess it comes down to is the goal to squeak into the tournament, or is the goal to get the best seed possible and advance. Maybe this year, and next year, the goal should have been just get in. |

AAC Teams we need to win out to boost our NET profile:
UCF - in danger of losing their Q2 win USF (aside from our game) - in danger of losing their Q2 status UConn - could lose Q1/Q2 status with a loss @Tulane Tulsa - could gain Q2 status Remaining AAC teams Houston - will likely stay Q1/Q1 Wichita - will likely stay Q1/Q2 Memphis - will likely stay Q1/Q2 SMU - will likely stay Q3 Temple - will likely stay Q2/Q3 Tulane - near guarantee to stay Q3 ECU - near guarantee to stay Q3/Q4 |

Vermont and Tennessee remain the teams to watch out of conference. I think Vermont could get back in the top 75 if they win the America East tourney.

I'm not sure if Illinois St staying a tier 3 team matters, but I like seeing only 3 quad 4 games. |
