We'll have the destination later tonight, but it's Selection Sunday and Marquette is going to be in the NCAA Tournament, and that is worth some celebration. I spent the day scrubbing the bracket, evaluating the bubble, and finalizing (for the most part) where teams would end up. There are a few hours for things to change (looking at you, Richmond) and we will update as necessary, but this is where things stand, with commentary on the protected seeds, Marquette's seed, and the Bubble. I also talk about why I went against my typical process of not adding teams that "play their way in" and the reasoning why.

For what it is worth the Athletic has us as the number one 8 seed🤷

Brew, whether we get a 9 or 10 who do we match up with best in the 64 round? How good are SDSU, TCU, Colorado St, and Murray St? I would much prefer to get a 10 than a 9.

Nice work. Looking forward to seeing how close it is to the real one. Interesting that Rutgers is no where to be found. I think you’ll be right on them.

Richmond might have just kicked X out of the dance

I kinda agree with Brew (and not Lunardi), X may be out - but it won't be because of Richmond. But X is likely still in.

Wonder if Richmond will bump MU off a possible 10 seed?

No

Davidson has a very unimpressive resume. They have a 1 point win over Alabama on a neutral floor and that’s it.

I think you don't like or understand metrics. Their resume is very similar to Marquette's.
-
NET ranking as of yesterday.
Davidson 38
Marquette 43.

And … as we all know, the NET is just one factor. Despite their slide / collapse in road games / I will say MU gets an
8 or 9 seed.

Well, I have a degree in Math and CS so I know a little bit how numbers and metrics work and respect them to an extent, but they’ve played only one or two at large teams all season.
While on the topic of understanding metrics, isn’t this your list for BE player of the year rankings?
Gillespie
Cole
Kalkbrenner
Moore
Freeman-Liberty
Nunge
Alexander
Lewis
3 of them didn’t even make the second team (2 others didn’t make the first team), so I’m not sure what metrics you used to come to that conclusion but I would re-evaluate for next year and check your own understanding of them.
