That is how I feel about the BTT. Dear Lord, just give one. Paleeze Sweet Baby Jesus, just one BTT championship. Before I die. That's a pretty good beer, ever try it?

KoB2011 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 I am off the mindset that us being on the outside looking in according to a lot of folks has to do with the losing streak, not because our resume is behind those teams. If we win tomorrow that will be four in a row, which makes the losing streak a distant memory. It was always going to be long odds to get in without a win in the BTT, but if we win one game that would mean have won 5 in a row and likely have 7 Quad 1 wins. That is very likely to get us in regardless of what the other bubble teams do. And while a lot of the teams right in front of us won, teams like Texas, Florida, Oklahoma and Iowa may be playing themselves out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoB2011 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 Does anyone else find it odd that before today both ASU and Texas were considered in? In one case, you'd have to completely rely on the NET and in the other you have to ignore it. Seems very inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Bama’s last 11 games, they have 4 wins over Vandy (twice), GA and S Car. 17-14 overall. Total of 3 quad 1 wins.

Hopefully the selection committee doesnt Once past the automatic qualifiers, the committee’s job is to add the best at-large teams and seed all 68. The way to do that is strictly apply the NET and quad data and avoid subjectivity. Then between seasons, continue to refine it.

YOU ARE CORRECT! Given that they play Wisconsin, I doubt a Q1 loss would drop them all that much. And even if they do, they'd swap places with... Us.

CincyHoosier Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 IF we manage to get there, I like our chances to beat MSU for a third time this year. That team looks like it's being held together with duct tape. But at some point does it lose its luster? I mean, maybe we just have their number.

The value of a $100 bill doesn't change with the weather. A win over a top 15 team counts just as much whether it's the first, second or third time that year.

Murray St, Creighton and Furman all win. Will be interesting to see bracketology tomorrow and what they do with Belmont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
