If DePaul can make their free throws, Georgetown is out.

DePaul wins. Georgetown is officially off the bubble and out.

They weren't ever really "in" but showed up on some blind resumes recently.
Possibly out of the NIT at this point as well.

Gave Gtown the kiss of death by advancing them. Figured since it wasnt FGCU I'd be alright
Tomorrow could get crazy.

Again...I will blow the SEC trumpet. We aren't as bad as some think. What conference is SOOOO much better? Big Ten? Gimme a break...we barely lost to Wisconsin without Wilbekin playing....ACC? UT beat Vagirina the bellcow of that conference.
Don't sell us that short. Are we a powerhouse? No, but WHO is? Arizona tea has slipped, Syracuse, Ohio St, Mich State, Duke, UNC, Kansas (we beat them), Louisville all inconsistent...Memphis was beat by UF. Big 12? Are u kidding? Texas has slid down a sewer, OU is not much better than average and ditto OSU.
UT, Arkie are both very capable to hold their own against a lot of teams. I predict UGA vs UF in SECTCG. Remember, UGA is a fourth seed in the SECT and the road is easier for them playing instate.

35-28 Stanford at the half.

I agree with that. The SEC isn't really that bad. The Big Ten is pretty good, but not as good as people thought it would be. The Big 12 is probably the best overall conference.

It probably goes like this:
Big 12
Big 10
Pac 12
Big East
ACC
SEC
AAC, A10
Not a whole lot of difference between any of them. Impressive that Big 12 will get 7 of 10. SEC gets kudos for having the best overall team.

Anyone watching this Stanford game? They are not playing well.
Posted on 3/13/14 at 12:17 am to TN_Tigers
Stanford struggling mightily with WSU.
Tied with 10 to go at 47.
Boring game overall.

Ways we can boost our RPI today:
SMU over Houston
Mizzou over aggy
Cal over Colorado
Minnesota over Penn State
Savannah State over Norfolk State
Clemson over Georgia Tech
They all look like good chances, except for maybe Cal beating Colorado, and I know nothing about the Savannah State matchup.

Ways Mizzou's RPI Boosts. Currently at #52.
Illinois needs to beat Indiana
Arkansas needs to beat South Carolina
Long Beach State needs to beat Cal State Fullerton
Alabama needs to beat LSU
North Carolina State needs to beat Miami (Fla.)
Northwestern needs to beat Iowa
UCLA needs to beat Oregon
West Virginia needs to beat Texas
Hawaii needs to beat Northridge
Nevada needs to beat Boise State
And none of this will matter because we probably won't even beat the agsters.

I can see both sides, RPI boost or a bubble team falling off. Mizzou is barely on the bubble at all, if they beat aggy but lose to Florida they will be hoping for the NIT. If they win today they are still behind a lot of bubble teams.
Minnesota winning would help us because we beat them, if it gets down to us and Minnesota we will have the edge.
Cal could go either way, but I don't see them beating Colorado. They are on a major skid as of late.

I disagree. If I were Mizzou I'd be pulling for South Carolina over Arkansas today. We'd be one less team for ya'll to worry about. Ya'll need a few teams like us to lose so that you don't have to beat Florida to get in.

i'm not too proud to admit that this is me today

I can't disagree with you, but that scenario is simply based on what needs to happen for our RPI to increase. In reality we probably don't want West Virginia to win either...
