Georgia Tech: 2 wins away from NCAA Tournament

[Sean Miller Fan]

I am already counting their win at BC this weekend. People wrote off GT a long time ago but they are going to go into the final week needing to win at Louisville and beat Pitt at home to finish 19-12, 9-9 with 4 Top 50 wins (UVa, ND, @ Lou, Pitt). Their RPI is 67 now. Win thise those and they'll be right around 50.

Pitt @ GT could be a "play-out" game for both teams if we lose our next 2 and they beat BC and Lou. I dont think they beat Louisville but you never know. Gregory needs to make the NCAAT to save his job.

Down goes Pittsburgh...I can hear it now

Why do you post, here?? You obviously only want to see your gloomy outlook come true. BTW, you said we'd go 1-7 down the stretch. Good work.

There is a 1% chance that all five of these happen in your weird parlay:

GT beats BC (90%)
GT beats UL (10%)
Pitt loses to Duke (60%)
Pitt loses to VT (40%)
Pitt loses to GT (50%)

GT isn't going to the NCAA tournament.

For fun... put a $1 bet on that parlay... you'll likely get 75-to-1 or better.

My point was that if GT somehow manages to win in Louisville, they are playing for the NCAAT against us when nobody is talking about them.

I suppose anything is possible but them winning at Ville seems pretty unlikely.

I'm lost. Pitt has to go 10-8 to get in but gt 9-9? Huh?

I'm guessing that in SMF's world, the quality of wins in the Top 50 (with two of those being vs UVa and Louisville) would put them = to Pitt, if the 10-8 vs 9-9 scenario follows

Yes. Similar RPIs. Similar records. Season split if they beat us. They would have 3 excellent Top 25ish wins. We'd have 1. Not even a question they'd go over us.......but they wont beat Louisville.
