NET is now in a range where we could hope for a tourney bid.

Creighton gets a nice win vs Nova and their NET gets worse; Nova loses to Creighton and their NET gets better; we lose by 9 and our NET gets better. Fun!

Thanks brew. That makes more sense!

[DoctorV]

Imagine what it could've been had MU only lost by 2!

That Kolek early in the clock attempt was painful on several levels, but there was 1:48 left and MU was down 3.

Complete mishandle of that last 2 minutes led to a 9 pt defeat and likely cost several spots in the NET

I admit that I didn't think there would be a single day this season in which PC was ranked higher than Wright & Co.

So MU has gone from 79 to 64, an improvement of 15 spots, in 3 days following a 9 pt loss at Xavier.

That's really nice.

A win tonight would likely mean another 15-20 spot jump into the 40s, let's do this!!!

Don't think it'd be that significant unless it was a blowout. We're only 4 point underdogs/

As MU plays more Big East teams, their NET will go up provided they don't get their butts handed to them. We absolutely did enough in the non-conference to earn a bid in conference play. Just have to win the games.

Yup. 11 anyway we can get them should earn a bid (including conf tourney).
10 would likely have MU right on the bubble and my instinct tells me would put us in a First Four game.
Of course that assumes all the games are played, and we are already seeing a lot of cancellations.

Crazy to think that 13 more wins on the season could make this season wildly successful: 10-10 in conf, 1-1 in NY, earn a bid and win 2 to get to the sweet 16 or win a first 4 game and round of 64 game.

Tbh even 12 more wins could make this season wildly successful- one win in the dance would elate the masses after years worth of no tourney wins.

Lets start with 1 tonight

Ole Miss losing to Samford isn't going to help MU.

Should've pulled a Seton Hall, I guess.

Ole Miss hurt us the most.

Good call. I was trying to think what previous opponents played last night as well.
