I think if ISUr runs the table and looses in the MVC championship game, they might get a little push for an at large due to...
1. Weak bubble teams all around the country
2. Due to the weakness of the overall field, a team that finishes(sorry if my math is wrong) 14-2, might get a bump over a team that struggles down the stretch, because what bubble team has s resume as of right now.
3. Who the hell knows what will happen Creighton lost at home to them, WSU took a 3 game slide, and KU(who looked like the best team in the country) have lost three games in a row.
GENO!

UNI has no prayer for an at large, but they have no bad losses. they just out-scheduled themselves.

This thread was a joke, right?

Should have known UNI would have been brought up though.

ahahaah this thread makes me laugh. No way ISUR runs the table to the valley finals. Amazing what a little hot streak does to a fan base.

Weak bubble or not, the big name conferences will gobble up the at larges that aren't obvious.

So, lolHellNo.

ETA: ISUr has as good a chance as anyone of winning St. Louis right now. Focus on that, anything else will give you a headache and disappointment.


You are not reading RPI forecast correctly.

If ISUR wins out in the regular season and win 2 in STL they are projected to have a RPI of 55. That would put them on the bubble - maybe on the wrong side of the bubble, but still on the bubble.

If UNI does the same thing, their projected RPI is 46.

No. They started MVC play 0-6....that ship has sailed. UNI has an outside shot if they run the table to the finals. We are closer to a 1 bid league than a 4. Maybe NIT though :|
