Yeah, there's error - They have our data switched the Alabama's. If you scroll across you see we're all 4's with one 3 - that would be the 3.98 they show for BamaI don't understand why Alabama would be ahead of us?
And I still don't see why MSU is a lock.
They played an extremely challenging schedule to start the season. Can't penalize them for that. They and Wisconsin have the same argument, which is valid.I don't understand why Alabama would be ahead of us?
And I still don't see why MSU is a lock.
We don't have any top notch wins. I think this ultimately keeps us off the 3 line unless we make a serious BTT run.I don't understand why Alabama would be ahead of us?

Does the NET change during postseason play? or is it stuck as Q3 loss?Maryland loss is now Q3. Not ideal.

Well it does make our Q2 record look better...Maryland loss is now Q3. Not ideal.
Without TSJ. That will be factored in.Maryland loss is now Q3. Not ideal.

Really similar resumes for this group of teams:View attachment 32030I can't imagine we can do anything at this point to convincingly put us at a 3-seed, but I hope so much to have a number "3" next to "Illinois" on Selection Sunday...
That email needs to already be on its way.Without TSJ. That will be factored in.
Good news based on this is that is we end up a 4 seed, most of the 5 seeds don't look that strong. Now that's assuming it shakes out like this chart

It would be so Illinois to be paired with the #6 ranked NET team in the second roundAgreed. BracketMatrix is usually pretty good, but not perfect. More good news in that regard - nobody really in the 5-7 range is very strong.
The only thing to be concerned about is Auburn falling down to a 5 seed. They'll most likely play South Carolina next, which is on the Q1/Q2 cutoff at a neutral site, so shouldn't be a big mover for them either way. But I'd rather they win and pass us in the S-curve than lose and end up being the 5 seed we're paired with.

Everyone needs to cheer like hell for the Terps this week! They fell to #77, so they are still REALLY close to that top 75 cutoff ... if they can sneak back in, we erase our Q3 loss AND get another Q1 win. This is their path:Maryland loss is now Q3. Not ideal.
I mean, it's gotta break in our favor at some point, right? Here's to finally getting a favorable draw this year !
