Beat a top 15 team stay last 4 in. Be 2-7 in the league, also the last 4 in. Ridiculous— Joe Lunardi (@ESPNLunardi) February 4, 2023

Yeah, there is a lot more in play than I pay attention to, but on the surface it sure seems odd how some things are shaping up. Palm has us in the playoff round as an 11 against UNC. Clearly the NET is a big factor but there is at least one with a higher NET, same record and inferior conferences that are up to three lines higher (MichSt). Most of the higher-ranked teams do have better NETs though, like WVU, who have a lesser record but a NET almost 20 lower.Curious how many more conference wins we need than West Virginia to be as firmly in the field as they are. We currently have 3 more conference wins, one more and we will double their conference wins.
They aren’t trying. They are succeeding. Blowing double digit leads to SI and UCF are keeping us from at least a 6 seed right now.Yeah, there is a lot more in play than I pay attention to, but on the surface it sure seems odd how some things are shaping up.

Those three stupid OOC losses are trying to bite us in the arsk.
