Title: B12 tourney
Post by: Dirty Sanchez on February 20, 2011, 08:17:10 AM
Currently in 6th, but still a giant clusterfuck in the standings.  Tied with baylor and corn record-wise.  Can still get a first rd bye. 

Upcoming schedules
baylor--@mu, @osu, aTm, texas
corn--KSU, mu, @isu, @cu
misery--baylor, uk, @KSU, @corn
KSU--@corn, @texas, mu, isu

The corn (yes, really) and misery games are huge for us . I see baylor falling back.  That schedule's just too tough. 

Now here's your "take that bracket and run" thought.  KSU gets 4th, corn 5th.  We get a first rd bye to play the winner of corn/iowa st.  :emawkid:


#2 Texas   11-1   --   23-4
#1 Kansas   10-2   1   25-2
#17 Texas A&M   8-4   3   21-5
#21 Missouri   7-5   4   21-6
Nebraska   6-6   5   18-8
Kansas State   6-6   5   18-9
Baylor   6-6   5   17-9
Colorado   5-7   6   16-11
Oklahoma State   4-8   7   16-10
Oklahoma   4-8   7   12-14
Texas Tech   4-8   7   12-15
Iowa State   1-11   10   14-13

jfc if NU is the #4 seed.  Goddamn home loss to CU.  And really, two games, CU at home and the UNLV game are what have us on the bubble.  So Dillards can go ahead and eat a pallet of dicks.  NU is going to beat us.  Sucks but they are.  We're going to need two wins in the conf tourney to get in, imo.

We could lose @ NU and still get a bye by the skin of our teeth. KenPom has Nubb going 8-8, which would likely entail splitting the MU and @ISU games. If NU beats MU in Lincoln (52% win prob.) and loses to ISU in Ames (51% win prob.), and KenPom's other projections hold, we get the bye. Here's the bracket generator output:

1. Texas (15 - 1)
2. Kansas (14 - 2)
3. Texas A&M (10 - 6)
4. Kansas State (8 - 8) With Missouri, defeated Nebraska based on North Division record. Defeated Missouri based on record against #1 North Division teams.
5. Missouri (8 - 8) With Kansas State, defeated Nebraska based on North Division record. Lost to Kansas State based on record against #1 North Division teams. Defeated Nebraska based on North Division record.
6. Nebraska (8 - 8) Lost to Kansas State and Missouri based on North Division record. Lost to Missouri based on North Division record.
7. Baylor (7 - 9) Defeated Colorado based on head-to-head record.
8. Colorado (7 - 9) Lost to Baylor based on head-to-head record.
9. Oklahoma State (6 - 10)
10. Texas Tech (5 - 11) Defeated Oklahoma based on record against #2 North Division teams.
11. Oklahoma (5 - 11) Lost to Texas Tech based on record against #2 North Division teams.
12. Iowa State (3 - 13)

The more I look at teams on the bubble, the more it seems that an 8-8 finish puts us in, considering our SOS and RPI. We're all but guaranteed 1 W in the conf tourney if we get the 11 or 12 seed in the 1st round.

It appears NU has the most favorable schedule remaining of the 4 battling out for the 1st round bye. Crazy to think the Huskers could make the big dance. Nothing about that team, from just watching them, has me thinking NCAA worthy, but their resume continues to improve.

4. Missouri (9 - 7) Defeated Kansas State based on record against #4 North Division teams.

but if i switch to
MU: @KSU(L), @NU(W), KU(L) =>
Quote
4. Kansas State (9 - 7) Defeated Missouri based on record against #1 North Division teams.

neither teams North records change.  but swapping out the results for Missouri against KU and NU flips the seedings.

Yeah because if they beat KU the tie breaker of record against the #1 team in the division would be the same 1-1 versus KU.  Mizzou and KSU would finish 2nd & 3rd in this scenario so then you go to the record against the #4 team.  In whatever you generated Nebraska finished behind Colorado for 4th.  KSU was 0-2 versus CU and Mizzou was 1-1.  Therefore the third to last tiebreaker would go to Mizzou.  It is not very likely that the standings will finish with Colorado finishing 4th and KSU and Mizzou would have to use that tie breaker.  As a matter of fact KSU, Mizzou, NU, and CU would have to win/lose an exact combination of games for this to play out.  I'm no mathematician but I'm pretty sure there are still around 100 win combination possibilities for these four teams.

Also worth noting that Colorado and Nebraska are still very much alive for the 4 seed.  Colorado will likely be eliminated on Saturday, Nebraska will need to win in Ames.

Update

This week has really sorted things out.  As mentioned above, its us and mizzou for #4.  Looking at the schedules and tiebreakers, here's the breakdown:

KSU: @texas, iowa st.---despite our history with texas, I'm going conservative and say 1-1
mu: @nebraska, uk--I'd say at best 1-1.  nebraska could be a trap game on the road, preparing for uk, and nebraska being a little angry at the iowa st loss.

Obviously, if we go 1-1 (or 2-0) and mizzou  goes 0-2, we get the 4.

Now if we lose to texas and beat iowa st and mizzou beats nebraska and loses to uk. The tiebreakers go 1)head2head-split 2)division record-tied @6-4. 3)record against the top team in the division (uk)--Advantage KSU.

If we lose texas and win iowa st and mizzou loses to nebraska and beats uk, the same tiebreakers go until 3, when, if I'm reading it right, would go to common record against other division teams.  uk/KSU/mu-tie.  Then it would fall to colorado--Advantage mizzou.

The texas game is inconsequential if mizzou loses either game (I think they will lose either or both), because its a non-divisional game.  Outside of NCAA resume's, the iowa st game is more important to us.  Might be more to lose by losing to them than there is to gain beating texas.

Be careful, fracking Colorado could blow us up.  They have an opportunity to also finish 9-7 (@ISU, NU) and we could fall as low as #6 if we finish in a three-way tie with CU and MU.

Title: Re: B12 tourney
Post by: sys on February 26, 2011, 06:02:01 PM
so it seems like a three way tie would go cu 4.  then kstate 5 if mu beats nu, kstate 6 if mu beats ku.



worth pointing out that a three way tie is highly unlikely, even though each individual game needed for the tie might appear fairly likely.

This week cleared nothing up, Nebraska eliminated themselves, that's it.  The CU win was a worst case scenario.  Hell A&M could easily finish 6th and they've been third all season.  This race is fun to watch, there are 13 games left and 11 of them have direct impact on the top 7 seeds.  OU plays in both meaningless games.  People who disparage basketballs regular season are idiots.

This week cleared nothing up, Nebraska eliminated themselves, that's it.  The CU win was a worst case scenario.  Hell A&M could easily finish 6th and they've been third all season.  This race is fun to watch, there are 13 games left and 11 of them have direct impact on the top 7 seeds.  OU plays in both meaningless games.  People who disparage basketballs regular season are idiots.

Baylor also eliminated themselves.  There were 5-6 teams in play for the 4 seed before this week.  Its much easier to project now, so you could say it sorted itself out somewhat.

This week has really sorted things out.  As mentioned above, its us and mizzou for #4.  Looking at the schedules and tiebreakers, here's the breakdown:

KSU: @texas, iowa st.---despite our history with texas, I'm going conservative and say 1-1
mu: @nebraska, uk--I'd say at best 1-1.  nebraska could be a trap game on the road, preparing for uk, and nebraska being a little angry at the iowa st loss.

Obviously, if we go 1-1 (or 2-0) and mizzou  goes 0-2, we get the 4.

Now if we lose to texas and beat iowa st and mizzou beats nebraska and loses to uk. The tiebreakers go 1)head2head-split 2)division record-tied @6-4. 3)record against the top team in the division (uk)--Advantage KSU.

If we lose texas and win iowa st and mizzou loses to nebraska and beats uk, the same tiebreakers go until 3, when, if I'm reading it right, would go to common record against other division teams.  uk/KSU/mu-tie.  Then it would fall to colorado--Advantage mizzou.

The texas game is inconsequential if mizzou loses either game (I think they will lose either or both), because its a non-divisional game.  Outside of NCAA resume's, the iowa st game is more important to us.  Might be more to lose by losing to them than there is to gain beating texas.

This would be an excellent point if Baylor didn't still have a chance to finish T-3.

Would rather have the 4 or 5 seed and then play CU and UT. I think we'd beat A&M, but I don't want to play KU again.

that's Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).  if kstate wins, you have to assume they're going to have play ut or ku.  it's not like there's a secret, alternate bracketrun into the championship game.

no wed is the first priority, if that fails, then matching up with a&m is the 2nd preference.  third priority is not back to backing isu.

Update following CU loss to ISU.  This is assuming uk finishes off aTm (currently up 9 late).

Probably the 4 playing the winner of missouri or colorado vs iowa st.  corn can't get the 5 from any scenario I've been able to find.

A win for us plus tech defeating aTm gives us the 3 vs baylor/colorado/nebraska vs ou

Could get the 5, but that would require us losing to isu and mu beating uk.

Baylor could still get the 5 seed if..... they beat UT, Mizzou losses to KU, and CU wins = meening BU MU and CU all 8-8

More than likely it will be either MU or CU.  I'd say MU has 40 percent chance of beating KU.

I'd love to get my hands on CU again.
