Can't stop everyone from calling it a play in when it's not, but no reason Rutgers should be referring to it that way. Marketing fail.

Also be ready for the usual negative "fans" to say we never even made the dance since we lost the play in game bla bla if we lose

The CBS screen has us listed with Indiana, Wyoming, and Notre Dame as the "LAST FOUR IN", not the play-in teams. We're IN the tournament.
Nobody is disputing that Rutgers is in the tournament or not. This counts as being in the tournament. But it is still a play-in game. They need to win to get into the field of 64 like everyone else

Rutgers fans are always so sensitive. It’s a play in game. No need to cry about it.

No, it's not lol. I'm not crying about anything.

We are already in the tournament. We made it. Those are the facts.

It's weird to be a Rutgers fan who is for spreading incorrect information designed to marginalize the team's accomplishment.

The self loathing Rutgers fans are very real

Oh are those the people who always walk around whipping their backs over the shoulder ? I knew they looked familiar.

Some people at Rutgers just think it makes them seem smarter to take the lower road and feel not worthy of achievement or promotion.

So I guess the round of 64 is a play-in round to get to 32. 32 play-in to get to sweet 16..and so on.
Except 64 to 32, and so on and so on, there are not teams that have to play an extra game to get to The Round of 32, Sweet 16 and so on.
Rutgers is in the NCAA tournament! Which includes 68 teams.
Rutgers get to Hang that banner. 2022 NCAA tournament
And they are 1 of 4 teams who have to win to advance to the FIELD of 64
Call it what you want.

I call it making the tournament and being in the first 4 games. period.
Did PSU, Nebby, Minny, and NW play into the B1G tourney cause they each had and extra game?

They need to win 2 to get in the field of 32….and so on. That’s how it works.
