ESPN analysis of the bubble teams and which ones have the best chance of at-large bids
-
-
Iowa State has lost 4 of their last 5 and could end up finishing the season with 12 losses - some of which
are fairly bad losses - to 12-18 West Virginia, Arizona, TCU and yet their NET is dang-near in the single digits
because this formula rewards teams who stay away from midmajors!! -
Then you have Indiana which they say could still get in the NCAA Tournament!
Indiana is now 15-14 with a non-conference Strength of Schedule of 161!!
... and their record in the Big Ten is 6-12 - deep in the Big Ten - tied in wins with 12th place Penn State
and behind Rutgers & Illinois who nobody believes are anywhere near an at-large bid!!Comment

West Virginia, barring major upset, will finish their season tonight against KansasOriginally posted by tornado View Post
and will end up with a record of 14-20
...altho they believe they can still win the Big 12 Tournament and go to the NCAA - http://dubvnation.com/wvu-keeping-ncaa-hopes-alive/
but they have already put up the fee and guaranteed themselves a spot in the CBI

I am SOOOOOOOOOO glad that we are not playing in one of these 'tournaments'. I do enjoy the extended season, but finishing under .500 and playing post-season basketball makes me feel dirty.Originally posted by tornado View Post

I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.Comment
