? Bubble Teams ?

[wayne1218]

Bye bye another bubble team when SD finishes this off

Bubble teams are fucked!

[LVJimmy]

hopefully that puts Ohio St out cuz I don't think they f'ing deserve it...sorry, you shouldn't make it based on winning your final 2 home games

[birdog]

They should add bubble games on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. So if these teams are the last 4 in or last 4 out let them play each other to have a whole week of March Madness the first week you know people would watch it on TV

[GOLDENGREEK]

ACC fan and hate most Big East teams here, but I have to agree with Wayne on all the points he made

And I dont think Maryland should make in either

[stripoker]

as a buckeye i really hope they don't make it...they will get embarassed...and i'm not sure why anyone would even bother to argue ncaab with wayne, talk about an effort in futility..i don't even see why anybody gives a shit about bubble teams, not like any of those teams have a prayer and the tourney is the best thing in sports imo no matter who's in

My thoughts on some teams in the tournament and on the bubble (Joe Lunardi Bracketology info)

My thoughts on his bracket

1. Texas is overrated at #2.
2. Louisville a #3 and Stanford #4?
3. Vanderbilt is undervalued. He has Marquette ahead of Vandy. The Golden Eagles suck bad and can't win on the road.
4. Butler is a #5 seed? They deserve better and are better than Purdue.
5. Kentucky should definetly be In. If they do not make it, it will be a disgrace.

LAST FOUR IN
A. Oregon... IN. Good Choice
Good wins: @ KSTATE, @ ARZ, STAN, ARZST, ARZ
Bad losses: @ OAK

B. Ohio State... OUT. They are not a good team and there are better teams than them on the bubble. OUT
Good wins: CUSE, FLA, PUR, MICHST
Bad Losses: @ IOWA, @ MICH, @ MINN

C. Syracuse... OUT. UNLESS WIN 2 GAMES IN CONF.
Good Wins: @ NOVA, GTOWN, MARQ
Bad Losses: UMASS, @ CIN, @ SFLA,

D. Arizona State... IN. Ranked #70 in RPI and SOS of 78.
Good Wins: XAV, ORE, ARZ, @ ARZ, STANF, USC
Bad Losses: ILL, @ NEB, WASH,

That leaves two more that should get in out of the list.

LAST FOUR OUT

A. Florida... OUT. #75 RPI, #88 SOS
Good Wins: KENT, @ SC, VAN
Bad Losses: FLA ST, LSU

B. VCU... OUT. Losing in conf. tourney not good at all.

D. Western Kentucky... win conf. tourney. auto bid

E. St. Joes... IN. Beating Xavier was huge. 54 RPI, 58 SOS.
Good Wins: @ UMASS, @ TEMPLE, VILL BY 22, @ RI, XAVIER

VANDY SUX JUST AS BAD ON THE ROAD AS MARQETTE

I AGREE WITH MOST, BUT NO WAY DOES DAYTON MAKE IT OR DESERVE TO IMHO

[kbsooner21]

What's funny is there is no talk about any Big 12 team in any post. Go ahead and talk about a #9 seed from the Big East making it or a #7 team from the ACC

[aplous]

Dayton has 0% chance in the world....they are what, .500 in the A10?

If you are on here talking about UConn and Marquette possibly not making it, you are nuts and need to pick up a USA Today instead of playing on the Internet.

UConn is a #3 or #4 seed if they go deep in the BE tourney....their late loss might hurt their seeding a bit. Marq is a lock as well.


KB.........The loser of the OU/Baylor game Friday afternoon in KC should be an elimination game, loser goes NIT.

Neither team has a solid win over a Top 15 team in 2008.

[wayne1218]

Is Ariz St or Oregon in? They both lost!

[kbsooner21]

Baylor with that loss today imo

[wayne1218]

Baylor with that loss today imo

That was just a horrible loss for Baylor today!

Add Umass and Florida to the horrible loss and probably list too!

[kbsooner21]

I think that gives ASU and Oregon both a good shot at getting in now

[wayne1218]

I think that gives ASU and Oregon both a good shot at getting in now

I think 1 of those 2 have to be out after today. Probably Oregon
