What could kill Wichita State is losses to the 100+. They have 3 of them.

I won't feel really confident unless they win a game or two in the tournament. Losing in the first round would give them a 40+ RPI, 100+ SOS, and 4 losses to teams outside the top 100, which could easily knock them out of the tournament.

Good work Duo. I can't argue with much of it. I haven't updated mine since midweek but I suspect it will be very similar.

[TheAsianSensation]

I can't find particular fault with those projections.

But only one of them if Evansville can get into the top 100 (104 coming into today)... might cross over with the ISUB win, otherwise you should probably cheer for the Aces in St. Louis.

[TheAsianSensation]

Obviously it helps if UE is in the top 100, but the committee isn't stupid. If UE is 104 they'll see 3 sub-100 losses but know 2 of them are right on the edge. Common sense will intervene.

Shut up already. Your act here is as old as it is on Shockernet.

[MSUDuo]

Common sense involving a mid-major? Haha, that's funny! They'll use whatever they can against WSU and we all know it. If it's UVA or Tennessee, then I would agree that 103 is close enough for 100

[MSUDuo]

Ole Miss shooting themselves in the foot. Boise picking up a big win. Swap them for now

If have a problem with what I've said, dispute it with facts.
