Will the game count towards SOS?

[PittMBA]

my guess is no. But, I'm wondering if the opponent is still calculated as part of the schedule, but with no result as opposed to not having been scheduled at all.

How could it? The game didn't happen.

If Pitt and Gonzaga want the game to count, meet up in the midwest and play.

Sagarin didn't use use the half-game results in his computer ratings. Pitt stayed at #50 and Gonzaga dropped to #17. Each team dropped about a half a point in their numerical ranking from the pre-season rankings. However, those changes appears solely based on the computer adjusting for results of other teams that actually did play their games reflecting other results through Saturday night (Nov. 14) because both teams are shown with 0-0 records.

Man, your brain is wired like no other. Silly suggestion. There's no need to MAKE a game with them count.

I think this is what seriously needs to be considered and what they should do. Probably will not, but just flat out terrible to lose that towards our SOS when we scheduled the game, showed up, and played until we were not allowed to anymore. Not either team's fault they had this game scheduled and didn't have a fit court ready to play on.

If they are going to give us credit for playing a game that we technically didn't play, should they have to give us credit for a win too since we were ahead at half time? After all, everyone knows that if you are ahead at half time our are obviously going to win.

We aren't going to get credit for something that didn't happen. As it should be.

What is silly about it? You think its impossible for Pitt and Gonzaga to board airplanes and meet up in a place like Kansas City, even meaning both teams would face 3 game weeks and short rest? They just flew to the other side of the world. The 2 hour flight to KC or some other MW city isnt exactly a killer.

I agree that it definitely wont happen but its because Pitt doesnt want to and Gonzaga doesnt need to.

Ridiculous. Pitt & Gonzaga both had flights out pretty soon after the game was expected to end. You want Pitt, which plays tomorrow night, to stop off in Tulsa, in a gym they have to CONTRACT for, get rooms, try to sell tix (scratch that, won't happen), then fly back to Pgh on Monday, play on Tuesday?? This isn't a video game.
As for your sneaky comment that Pitt doesn't want to, and Gonzaga doesn't need is a joke. About 90% of BB fans couldn't tell you where Gonzaga is located w/o google. Pitt is a known quantity in the ACC. NEITHER team should entertain that idea. You, of course, want another free TV game.......or just pay $2.00 for viewing it on the Stubhub Channel.
