The model predicts 9th in KP ranking. Not necessarily 9th in the conference. I guess he projects a rough non-conference? Maybe due to Luke's absence?

I'm trying to picture how an 8-10 team could get 9th out of 10.

1. Nova (14-4)
2. Georgetown (13-5)
3. St. John's (11-7)
4. Creighton (9-9)
5. Providence (9-9)
6. Xavier (9-9)
7. Butler (8-10)
8. Seton Hall (8-10)
9. Marquette (8-10)
10. Depaul (1-17)

That would suck for our conference. Would need stellar non-conferences to get more than 2 bids!

Yeah, that is an important distinction.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Two teams in the Top 35 and people wonder why Dana O'Neil wrote what she wrote.

Lock for the NIT, assumin' a soft bubble, hey?
The NIT automatically takes conference champions, who lose in their conference tournament like UWGB did last year. NCAA 68 + NIT 32=100 bids of which there will be at least 20 teams rated worse then 86th that are taking up bids. 100-20=80, which leaves 86th 6 teams short of an NIT bid. This of course is not exact, but the 86th ranked team is not likely to get an at large bid to either tournament.
