NCAA Bid??


Feb 23, 2020, 11:14 AM

Realistically, what does the BB team need to do to get a bid? Is it enough if they win 3 out of the next 4 and 2 games in the ACC tmt?

So we'd be 19-14 overall and 11-9 in the ACC regular season.

If you go to the basketball forum, you'll find a gazillion posts that address your question. Stats and stories to back it up too.

I think we need to win out the regular season and win 1 game in the ACC tournament. JMO

No one knows for sure because much depends on the outcome of other teams. Regardless it is nice to be in the conversation

WIn the ACC tournament.

We're parked at 81 in the NET (actually dropped a spot after yesterday's road win?). Even winning out the regular and adding a few in the ACC tourney would not likely take us high enough for an at-large. We do have a decent shot at the NIT though if we can finish a few games over .500.

Go Tigers! Beat the Jackets!

Cool. That makes a little more sense following a road win.***

I think the NET rankings are over rated...

Especially you look at a high ranking we had last year, as well as NC State both in the mid 30s, and we both got left out.

Don’t look at RPI either because now it’s not even judged.

I’d look at ESPN’s BPI, Jerry Palm’s Pomeroy rankings, and the Sagarin rankings. We have respectable rankings in all of these. As high as 46 in Sagarin. I think the committee looks at all of these combined as well as the eye test:

Warren Nolan has an excellent site for BBall

The NITTY GRITTY report does a good job of showing the stats.

A guessing game but my guess is:


Feb 23, 2020, 11:39 AM [ in reply to WIn the ACC tournament. ]

Winning out would really help the cause especially with a win over FSU . Twenty wins with the Louisville, Duke, and FSU big wins would likely give the Tigers a fair shot at the tournament. That would mean one tournament win would be necessary. This team can do all these things.
