2022-23 Men's Games of Interest

[theblueram]

No way PC dances with a 55 NET. Last year, the lowest NET was in the low 40s.

I’ll bet season tickets for the next 40 years they do.

Damn, that's at least a $16K bet. You up for that?

Wow. I don’t know about 40 years of season tickets but I like my odds.

[ElmCityRhody]

I said it earlier in the year w that stupid pay per interview

OVERATED COOLEY

If overrated is 7 NCAAs in 12 years, a Big East regular season and tournament championship, along with a Sweet 16, then I’ll take a coach that’s overrated.

3 .. count them 3 ncaa wins in 25 years against powerhouse

USC (play in game )
South Dakota state
Richmond


Bagahahahaha

Lol hyperbole, but they’ll be in.

Potentially play in (which I don’t count as making the tourney) but they’ll get in.

How about a six pack of Gansett?

[McRam]

I look at Dayton’s lineup and I think, wow! That team has NCAAT bid in its future. Then I actually watch them play and it’s like wtf?

Why does Grant play so deliberate?

[McRam]

Oh, saw them against pressure, I guess aGrant knows what he is doing

Why would you do that to yourself? Busch Lates all the way!

[RI_Bred]

DePaul trying to hang on over Xavier here too, great game.

to be able to make it to 40 more years of basketball games....that's pretty good

[adam914]

The Mitchell twins and Arkansas advance with a nice upset over Auburn. 12 and 6 for Makhi.

[PeterRamTime]

PRT, we have a big problem….I just read your post in the infamous Ant thread. It appears you withheld important intel. I am starting to wonder if the big 20 page attainment is now fraudulent! I never would have kept posting there if I knew about your intel.



Note: I am posting here because I gave my word not to post you know where anymore.

HE NEVER EVEN LIKED US

He punked us.

Outrageous!

I noticed Makhi didn’t start tonight , was that his first game as a non starter ??

If PC is in, I’ll continue posting like I do.

You can post anything you want. I may bust your balls though. All good fun.

BTW, you still have a chance. My memory was wrong. Last year Creighton had a 55 Net, 22-11, 7-6 Quad 1, 4-4 Quad 2, 6-1 Quad 3, and 5-0 Quad 4. Miami was the lowest at 62 Net, 4-3 Quad 1, 5-4 Quad 2, 9-3 Quad 3, 5-0 Quad 4.

PC at 55 Net, 21-11, 4-8 Quad 1, 3-2 Quad 2, 3-1 Quad 3, 11-0 Quad 4. I still think they fall short.

Obviously I want you to be correct and have them not make it, but they're 100% going to be in unfortunately.

[Blue Man]

I don't get the argument here? Literally every bracketologist has PC in somewhere between a 9-11. The matrix has them at a 10.

Maybe they wind up first four but there's 0.0% chance they're not in the field.

It certainly seems like they're a "lock," despite their swoon to end the year, which is weird to me when UNC is now seen as almost a lock to be out of the tournament. PC snagged a couple more Q1 wins, but trails behind UNC in NET and KenPom. I think PC could be put on the bubble if some team in another conference has a hot run to end the year, but it does seem like they did enough in the regular season to not be in serious danger of missing the tournament.

Look, I'm not particularly invested in this argument, but there's a ton of inertia to things like bracket predictions and top 25 polls. When you're in it's hard to get booted out, and if you're on the outside it's hard to get in and even if you get in it's hard to earn the rank you deserve.

Maybe they did make enough hay between the end of December to mid February to get in. If the committee was meeting regularly they probably are safe. But if the committee hasn't been meeting regularly and they look at the metrics and the whole season with fresh eyes, they're a bubble team at best. Teams with the same relative resume are excluded every year from the tournament

[Rhody15]

PC among "last four byes" on Lunardi's latest bracket.

Has them a 10 seed facing 7 seed Northwestern in first round.

[Jdrums#3]

I am watching FAU (Conf USA). Really nice team. Could be trouble in the NCAAT; a Sweet 16 dark horse, maybe.

There’s so much talent in FL. Many alumni from A10 schools, too, and I would imagine probably increasing some. Too bad it is such a big a stretch ( for multiple reasons - football being one big one ) for the A10 to snag a FL program. Keep in mind that I am not saying the A10 can, could or should.

I wonder if the A10 ever entertained the possibility ?

Jdrums#3,

FAU is currently ranked NET 15.

Moving this summer to AAC along with Charlotte, North Texas, Rice, UAB and UTSA as the newest AAC members. Houston, Cincinnati and UCF will move from AAC P6 to P5.

FAU has been in and out of the Top 25 during the season. Currently receiving votes in latest Poll:

Others receiving votes:
Oral Roberts 54, Florida Atlantic 53, Utah State 32, Providence 26, Iowa State 23, Northwestern 16, West Virginia 15, Toledo 10, Pittsburgh 10, Charleston 9, Michigan State 9, VCU 8, Boise State 7, Iowa 5, USC 5, Vanderbilt 3, Maryland 3, Memphis 3, Arkansas 2, North Texas 1, Drake 1

[reef]

Clemson is 23-9 and crushed NC St 3 times and is currently out of most brackets

Has an ACC team ever won 23 games and not danced ??

Any Florida school that would be the least bit desirable has Division 1-A (or whatever the hell they call it this week) football, meaning they'd end up as the umAss of the south.

[ramster]

Florida Atlantic beats Middle Tennessee 68-65 to go to 30-3
That will be a did stealing situation if FAU gets beat.

Thanks for the info, Ramster. Good team.

Also, I am aware of their conf change next year.

[Rhodymob05]

Who voted for PC after losing 4/5. What an asshole.

[reef]

Wow this Kolek is fun to watch !! My new fav player

[Jersey77]

Wow this Kolek is fun to watch !! My new fav player

I agree Reef.
Great game tied up at half.

[RI_Bred]

Great game so far. If Hawkins doesn't get going for CT they are done.

[adam914]

Definitely feels like this one is coming down to the wire, but Marquette is pretty hot to open the second half.

[Jersey77]

Kolek has a little bit of Steve Nash in him.

[adam914]

Huskies weathered the storm and right back in it! What a game.

[reef]

Great game indeed

DH playing a lot of zone has he done that a lot this year ??

[adam914]

Wow great defense by Marquette on that last play. Hell of a game.

[reef]

Hawkins shot 2-11 and 1-8 his draft stock may take a hit

[SGreenwell]

Fun times for Arkansas.

[Rhode_Island_Red]

Fun times for Arkansas.

Father was a horse's ass. Once again, the apple doesn't fall from the tree. Boo-hoo-hoo for all of them and certain of their mothers.

[Rhody15]

Never liked Musselman at all.

Always comes off fake, phony, and pompous.

Never cared for Muss especially when he was @ Reno and dissed us with that return game , have fun coaching those Mitchell’s

How bout Vandy beating Kentucky, Coach Jerry Stackhouse has them peaking

[ace]

UConn-Marquette game was fantastic. Mad they won, but I love seeing Shaka excelling again. I am convinced that’ll be Archie’s path, too. Right fit, win games.


In honor of Vanderbilt’s win, I share this tweet that I saw a few days ago and haven’t stopped thinking about…

[ramster]

After six straight missed UVU free throws, Healy made a pair at the line to pull to within 86-85 with 12 seconds to go. Utah Valley made a pair at the line to push the lead back to 88-85 with 10 seconds on the clock.

Incredibly, Jones drained a three-pointer with four seconds to go to tie the game at 88-88 and was fouled on the shot. Jones made the free throw to take an 89-88 lead as the 'Birds held off Utah Valley in the final three seconds as the 'Birds completed a 23-point comeback.

Could it be that just playing URI hurt PC's NET enough to keep them out of the NCAAT?

So, if Lowell wins, Rhody will have, in their single digit size bucket of wins, one over a NCAAT team
