Gonna be tough to move up too much more, looking at the net of the 3 teams left on the schedule. Hopefully we can get in the 70s

The NET is a really stupid mathematical formula.  Unbelievable that this ranking is a big part of the determining factor of who gets in and who doesn't.  If USF wins out, by some miracle, and we aren't in it will be the biggest travesty I've ever seen.  Come on people spend a little more time and get this algorithm correct.

Memphis has a chance to get us back a Quad 1 win, though ...

if it happens it will be because of our poor OOC schedule, and losses to bad teams. Could we get an at large, I guess its possible but I'll believe it when I see it.

This really would be sad if it plays out that way.

The losses were 3 and half months ago. Yes, the OOC was weak, but that doesn't seem to hamper teams from the power leagues who do the same thing. There was an article in The Athletic over the weekend at how the Big XII is taking advantage of the NET by doing exactly this. 

The bottom line is that we are one of the best 68 teams going right now. 19 wins in 20 games attests to this.

problem is it is not the best 68 teams that get in. 32 spots go to AQ's many of which are not even a top 100 team.

Very true. I should have just said we are a tournament worthy team.

Memphis is starting to heat up.  They are the only one that scares me going into the conference tournament.  Hopefully someone else knocks them off in one of the earlier rounds.  They've had the talent, but now starting to play like a team.
