How many teams in your conference make the Tournament?

Duke
UNC
Notre Dame
Miami
Wake Forest

UVA and VT are on outside looking in. Maybe they get a bid if they make ACC finals but both probably need to win it. FSU is only team outside of those 7 that I see winning it all and I think they have to win it to make NCAAs. Now that they're healthier, they're better than 8th in the ACC.
 
Wisconsin
Purdue
Illinois
OSU
Iowa
MSU (90% chance)
Rutgers (50% chance)
Michigan (40% chance)
Indiana (40% chance)

So somewhere between 6 and 9. I’d guess we get 7 but don’t know which of Rutgers/Michigan/Indiana grabs the last bid.

Its looking like Michigan and Indiana will meet in the 8-9 game of the BTT. The loser of that game is likely eliminated.

This is an interesting take, and probably spot on, I wouldn't know.

My distant opinion on this league is pretty simple.

I believe Rutgers should be a lock. Unless they lose today.

I know your schedule is unbalanced but they would be 12-8 in the league with wins over every top team in the league. They even have a win on the road at your 1st place team. They should probably be a lock if they lose today.

Yeah, 50% might be light. But those losses to Lafayette and UMass are anchors on their resumes. 76 in the NET with 2 quad 3 and 1 quad 4 losses.

Yeah I get that.

I think some common sense has to be applied. If they are beating the entire top half of the league they just belong in the Ncaat. If we can't put them in then drop the league seeding because we are saying the league ain't that great if a team beating all the top teams isn't good enough to get in.

I think they get in. But I am not looking at it as close as you guys.

Oh, I'd put them in for sure. I'm just not sure what the committee will do.

I'm lookin @ this ACC T and I'm wondering, is somebody about to steal a bid?

Could see UVA or FSU just winning it.

I swear somehow this atrocity of a basketball league still finds a way to keep me interested.

Its gonna be tough to win 4 games in 4 days. And the road got harder with CamRon Fletcher’s season ending with thumb surgery.

But FSU is 4-2 this season against the 4 teams that got a double bye. Just saying…that can’t be too common for NIT teams lol.

You guys going to accept the NIT bid? Just asking, since some teams turn it down..

SEC has 6 right now that are locked in. Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky, LSU and Tennessee.

If either Florida or Texas A&M can knock off auburn i think that would give them a 7th.

think Mississippi State could also get in if they knock off tennessee.
