It's a long shot but everything helps... We need VT, & UNC to win too to help us out a little.... I'm still not confident but stranger things have happened than Nebraska squeaking into the NCAA tourney this year! Florida State didn't help us though
BC up 14 at the Half on NC State...
- Thread starter cdriftt24
- Start date
More than anything I'm pissed at Broadway Jim Delaney for putting us in the position to have to wait a week and a half to find out if we get in. All in the name of playing in front of empty seats in New York. He completely botched this conference tourney thing. I reiterate...stupid fker!
I'm not sure I like playing a week earlier but I actually read where the turnout for the Semi's and the Finals was much better than expected in NYC and some even considered it the best in a while?!?! Not sure it's the best location but it's all about the $$$$
FWIW I think Nebraska is getting in. How would y’all feel if Nebraska and Oklahoma play each other in one of the play-in games?
MSG looked pretty full on Saturday and Sunday..
What sucks is not playing this week and weekend.
How about Nebraska and Hurley’s Arizona St team instead..
Just don’t see us getting in after last Friday hope I’m wrong.
I don't think there is any way NYC could compare to Chicago as far as overall attendance for the tourney.
I’ve heard Indianapolis is even better than Chicago as far as hotels and eating places around the Arena.
Game commentators were saying they were still a lock to get in. The scroll on the bottom said they were less than 50% with a loss. We lost to the tournament champs and the seventh rated team. They lost to a team (that we beat head to head) in the first round. Big difference. Who knows what the committee does. I don’t ever remember a year with so many bubble teams from power five conferences.
Damn, Notre Dame came back from a 21-point deficit to beat Virginia Tech. The Irish might play their way into the tournament now.
I wasn’t saying NC State wouldn’t get in... a BC win helps us since we beat BC. Helps our strength of schedule. Also.... need the Cyclones to beat Texas tonight!!!!
Announcers keep talking about the "great look" DePaul got on that last shot. And it was a good look, but the guy also had a teammate WIDE open under the basket. Why take a three when if you make a good pass, you can have a game-winning dunk?
They’re a unique case with the preseason ACC player of the year missing a huge chunk of games during the middle of the season. Will be interesting to see how the committee views them, beat Duke and they’re definitely in, without that win I’m not so sure.
NC State will... Not so sure on Florida St.
Right now we sit 56 in RPI... Florida St. 54
We will be higher in SOR too
