Lunardi just tweeted Marquette as "next four out"

[zcg2013]

As much as these projections mean nothing towards the end of the year, it does show some slow progress of the team as well as proof that our non-conference schedule was decent.

[LoudMouth]

New Lunardi poll has us as the best last four byes as a 10 seed playing ND. Obviously it's totally random and that match up is unlikely but boy would that be a fun game. I'd travel across the Earth to watch that one

I know this matchup is very unlikely but will they have bonzie back in march

Notre Dame right now is horrible, I do not see them getting into the tournament.   Once Matt Farrell gets back they will be better but losing Colson is a big loss.
The rest of there players are just average.  MU is way better.

They will get in. Farrell should be back soon enough. They have a decent enough cushion

And teams like garbage Syracuse(no clue how they are in) find a way to lose and get absolutely physically dominated to the under manned Domers.

The unwritten rule of March is that if Syracuse is anywhere near the bubble, they're in.

Except last year, though I suppose they shouldn't have been close to the bubble.

So you're saying I should pencil them into the Final Four...

Speaking of Arkansas,  he has EIGHT SEC teams making it.  I guess we can't laugh at the SEC anymore in basketball.  Even if they got 6-7 that would be impressive.  It has been a long time since they have had more than five.

In 2016 they had a whopping 3 of 14 teams make the tourney.

[GB Warrior]

NBC Sports has us as a 9 (v Louisville), and has us as 6 of 7 in the Big East. Providence is a 10 seed.

CBS has us as a 8 seed vs. Florida State.

Latest bracketology from ESPN has us a 10 seed playing 7 seed Michigan in Nashville. I don't like that matchup....

But at least there will be a lot of offense.  And you'd get the prospect they stole of our backyard (Poole) v. the prospect we stole from theirs (Cain).  And there will be a lot of blue and gold in the crowd.  And keefe can finally root for a team worthy enough to call him an alum.

[MU82]

Interesting stuff ...

ND is more on the bubble than we are, and they have a tough situation going forward without their best player.

Providence appears to be the last team in. Thankfully, Markus' 52 points might keep the Friars more bubblicious than us!

Georgia is first four out. I guess they can thank us for being this close.

Buzz is next four out. Maybe you don't have to leave the "troubled" Big East for an ACC afterthought program after all.

2 of our losses to #1 seeds (Nova, Purdue), 2 to #3 seeds (X, Wichita), 1 to #9 seed (Butler) and other to team on bubble (Ga).

All the usual caveats that it's only January, everything is fluid, this all means little, etc.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

That Georgia loss is a real kick in the nads. Not a terrible loss by any stretch, but you'd feel a lot more comfortable on Selection Sunday with that win in hand.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

ND just lost another starter to injury this week. Supposed to be out  a month to two months. Three different starters missing at least three games due to injury. That's some rough breaks

Yeah, that's too f-ing bad.

ND still blows.

I agree with this analysis

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Very disappointing.  I thought Buzz would be further along in year 4.
