until its not a Q3 loss anymore, its considered a bad loss, doesnt kill the resume but if it was a win,we would have a neutral site win

Any chance they sneak into the top 100? Looks like they are 113 now

Bonnies aren't a terrible loss, but they're certainly not a good loss either. It's still possible they sneak their way into Q2, but it's more likely they finish as a high Q3.

17 of the Top 40 NET teams have at least one Q3/Q4 loss (and 3 of them have 2). A single high Q3, neutral site, single digit loss isn't going to keep us out.... we managed to avoid the "bad loss" on our resume so far, but we may need more in the "good win" column (namely a road win).

agree, its a Q3 loss but most schools can absorb one loss, the issue though here is with the road red flag, a win vs a loss here is huge, it would give RU a win on a neutral site which they desperately need while giving them a clean profile with no Q3 losses

Bonnies will beat the St Louis Billikens in their final game to jump into Q2. RU's NET jumps up by 3 spots locking them into the tourney!
