Lunardi Moves RU to Last Four Byes

[NiTeKnight]

From Last Four In.
That would mean not in a play-in game.
Has Rutgers as #11 seed vs. #6 seed Alabama.
Michigan in Last Four Byes too with Indiana in First Four Out.
Hopefully, this means the NCAA Tournament picture is improving for RU.
Don't know why, because NET went up to 78.

Our tournament picture is looking better. Check out the teams in the “last 4 in” and “first 4 out”. Imagine horrendous thing that RU loses by 20 to Iowa or a close one to Nwestern… Now compare our schedule and results against the 8 teams mentioned. Hard to argue almost any of them deserve to be over RU even with the very poor Friday result I mentioned.

man that would be a brutal 6 seed opponent! but I would sign up for it right now! I saw another guy with us as a 10 playing Colorado State which would obviously be incredible but seems a bit of an outlier.

Colorado State is very good

 

[Salvi's Headband]

Colorado State is very good

They are very good. But I'd take them over anyone on Lunardi's 6 line I think. Going to be a tough game no mater what.

 

[ouchmyknee]

All games are tough in the tourney

And thats exactly why we should get an at large bid.. We are a team that can step up to beat anyone.

curious---all the other teams aside...

Is it better for us if Indiana beats Michigan then loses their following game? Since Indiana i think would still be 'below' us in that scenario but it would potentially pull Michigan down below us too? Whereas if Michigan wins then who knows if they'd get a better shot than RU in the tourney seedings?

 

[bac2therac]

no because Indiana could be selected ahead of RU simply based on the committee doesnt like our net and bad losses and Indy has neither.

better to just have Michigan win to totally eliminate Indiana from being taken over us

Bla black bla bla bla.

I still think a loss tomorrow is very bad news.

We need to win. Or else we only have ourselves to blame for whatever happens on Sunday night.

We can't count on getting in if we lose tomorrow.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Where we should be AND my guess is a loss vs Iowa won’t change that.

Wrong we are a lock
Now worse we can do is have a quad 2 loss
