Everyone does their tournament champion but I believe they could designate their regular-season champion instead. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) Since using the conference tournament champion increases the chances of getting more teams into the NCAA tournament, it's probably what every conference will keep doing forever. St. John's beat predicted 8 seed Butler. Edited March 1, 2018 by Moiraine Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Spectacular night. Can’t really think of anything that didn’t go our direction. 1 Quote Link to comment
HS_Coach_C Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 2/28 Boston College over Syracuse - check Xavier over Providence - check Clemson over Florida State - check Pitt over Notre Dame (not a big deal if Notre Dame wins) - miss Texas A&M over Georgia (not a big deal, but Georgia isn't too far off the bubble) - check UCONN over Temple (Temple is still close to the Bubble according to some) - check 5/6 on the night is great BONUS - St. John's over Butler 3 Quote Link to comment
Big red surfers Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Thanks BC for that win over cuse. With that loss, lunardi should move cuse from first four out to a 6 seed. 3 Quote Link to comment

Great information. It was a nice little Wednesday night for Nebraska's tournament hopes. I personnally think a win over Michigan would be enough (maybe I'm wrong) as long as there are no major surprises in other conference tournaments. Quote Link to comment

Only way we need to make Championship game is if Iowa upsets Michigan. For the most part I agree. There is also a chance that some teams win their conference tournaments and steal bids, or some of the teams around Nebraska on the bubble make runs deep in their tournaments, which would improve their resumes. Not overly likely. Control what they can control - just win tomorrow. Quote Link to comment

Yeah, I also am in the belief that Lunardi isn't quite that accurate this year and that the fact that we are a P6 school, with a top 4 finish, it will hold some extra weight. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology New one is up. Still in our same spot. The frustrating thing about this is basically no matter what outcomes occur in games right now these teams listed below have absolutely true negative movement: Alabama Syracuse Oklahoma Florida State 1 Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Today's games of importance for Nebraska: Michigan over Iowa GT over NC State (can't hurt) Virginia over Louisville (MUST HAPPEN) Ark. State over Louisiana (They owe us for all the pick sixes tLee gave them) Cal over Arizona State (could throw a wrench into things for ASU) Marist over Fairfield (why not?) Oregon State over Washington Missouri State over Valparaiso (in the same tournament as us next year, may as well start looking good for the RPI next year now) 3 Quote Link to comment

On paper they have a better resume but they have not been good in there last ten games. Same thing with Alabama(lost 4 in a row/lost by 19 at home to Florida). Nebraska is white hot and while I agree they dont have signature wins, they are basically beating the teams put in front of them.. Cant change the schedule mid-year. Watching some basketball last night and honestly I think Nebraska would crush some of those teams. Oklahoma will get in simply because of the Trae Young hype. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm thinking that Syracuse should drop a bit, but other than that yesterday's results don't affect much. Maybe Butler slides from an 8 to a 9, but Providence and Florida State losing to ranked teams shouldn't drop them. Quote Link to comment
