This is the Mvc final today
Iowa and Drake losing today help Pitt the most those are the ones that impact Pitt the most. I don’t see how Drake gets an at large bid over a team like Pitt if they don’t win the MVC championship today.
Are we sure its better that Indiana State wins? Here's their profiles if each lose today (with current NETs)
26 Indiana State
Q1 1-4
Q2 4-1
Q3 10-0
Q4 12-1
Road 9-4
47 Drake
Q1 3-2
Q2 3-3
Q3 9-2
Q4 11-0
Road 6-5
Indiana State would be 1-2 vs Drake and wouldn't have another win vs anyone else in the field.
Drake would be 1-2 vs Indiana State but has a win over Nevada.
I can't imagine how either of those two teams should be in if they lose today.
Very few mock brackets have 2 MVC teams in. This is a play in game.
I would like to think you're right, but Drake is lurking around the first 4 or next 4 out in a number of places. Lunardi has them ahead of us at the moment, and says ISU would be right at the cut line.
Hate the drake.
Drake is a bid stealer. Indiana State is in even with loss. Go Sycamores. Need a big comeback here.
Appeared that Drake is ahead of us on bracketology. But the point still remains, go Indiana State (down by 16). Can’t miss their 3’s. I’m sure Lunardi is OVC > ACC.
Drake has a better resume aside from Net. Indiana state with one quad 1 win and a quad 4 loss. Drake has 3 quad 1 wins.
Maybe. But I don't even see Indiana State on any Last Four Byes lists. They seem safely in, which kind of sucks. I guess losing huge would be the second-best thing to them winning, but still. Plus they seem to be closing the gap now anyway.
Because they were AQ. Drake was in second place. They won’t make it if not for AQ.
Drake wins we now await and see what this means for Indiana State in relation to Pitt and the tournament.
Dude on CBS doesn't agree about bid stealing just now. Said bubble teams will all pass Indiana St this week. ISU has 1 Q1 win.
Why should Indiana St get rewarded for beating nobody? They got blasted by Alabama, lost to Michigan St by 12, lost to Drake by 11, and were getting blown out most of today’s game. They need to schedule better in the non conference if they want a chance.
I guess the 37 or better NET thing will be put to the test, because I can't see them dropping too far after a close Q1 loss. Or did that stat only apply to power conference teams?
Pundits seem to like the ISU storyline, so we shall see.
Their storyline consists of beating nobody and are led by a big, goofy looking white guy.
That's no way to talk about Larry Bird.
Nice tweet Steve, now run it again with 27 teams win teams because one of theirs doesn't count as it was a non-D1 win.
Here's Indiana State's resume:
1-4 in Q1
1 Q4 loss
Best wins
47 Drake
@ 59 Bradley
59 Bradley
@ 108 Northern Iowa
@ 118 Belmont
SOS is like 140. I think they'll get in but they shouldn't.
I'm not so sure they wouldn't have been in with a loss. I also wouldn't have Indiana State in.
Indiana State was on the 11-12 line. I think they just flip Drake and ISU in the bracket.
Too many teams are gonna win this week for ISU to feel safe at all.
They have 1 Q1 win and its at Bradley who isnt even projected to make the NIT
I don’t feel confident at all that Pitt will make it, but I feel VERY confident they won’t.
Nova has played like 24 games against Q1-2 teams…you can’t even compare the schedules against someone like ISU.
