Do post season league tournament wins unofficially count towards the 20 wins if they are played on a Wednesday

Do post season league tournament wins unofficially count towards the 20 wins if they are played on a Wednesday

As a general rule, yes

[MakeItRain]

I officially am aware that teams with less than 20 wins get at large bids, like 1 or 2 a year. I officially think we'd be in a much safer place at 20. I'm officially not commenting at all on whatever sassy bullshit you're whining about, and unofficially think you are a moron that likes to argue with yourself.

Those links weren't for you, they were to illustrate what our path is to make the tournament

Thanks for clearing that up, officially

I SAID I WOULD CONSIDER GOING TO AN NIT HOME GAME!  Do you even know how big of a deal that is????

[The Big Train]

Will be interesting to see the kenpom adjustments

[star seed 7]

I still talk to some people from yahoo... But that's not really an appropriate discussion for a family blog

Didn't he project like 6 or 7 wins? To get to that number you have to win one or two of these.

[Trim]

When I went to an NIT game, most season ticket holders must not have gotten the tickets because I was over behind the 'cats bench instead of in 17.  So you might end up with pretty great seats, Pete.

He was at 5 before last night's win, now at 7.

[Pett]

CBI or bust. Much better reputation imho

[kso_FAN]

If the Cats somehow go 9-7 (probably 8-8) and 1-1 in KC they'll be in the NIT. 10-8 with the right wins puts us in the NCAA discussion, but probably still out (depending who we beat). 11-7 or better and we are a legit bubble team.

Our OOC was such a train wreck, if we had just turned a couple games (especially the last two at home) we'd be okay right now.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

CBB is really bad right now if the big xii has the highest rpi. We might be able to ride that smoke and mirror show to the right side of the bubble with 8 or 9 more wins (in aggregate).

With the conference such a mush of mediocre teams, it's not hard to see us winning more than that. We just won in the house of the best team in our conference for God's sake

It's possible that you're being too pessimistic. Tough to say with any certainty until you see what the rest of the bubble looks like at the end if the year. Like FSD was saying, there's a ton of bad teams this year.

I would come say hello and exchange high-fives/ fist-bumps.

This isn't said about me too often, but probably true in this case. CBB is having an ugly season though if you like efficiency, etc.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

I went back and checked, all of our losses (except south Texas state) have been teams with rpi's better than 75 range (pitt, tenn and lbsu), 3 are 38 or better(uga, osu, az).

Unfortunately those ~75 teams are probably doomed to drop because they are hot garbage.

[deputy dawg]

Simple:

Did last night turn the corner?
Yes - NCAA
No  -  NIT / CBI

Deputy Dawg is on team oscar, last night was an incredibly big win.  If nothing else, it proves that the Quatz can compete with teams that are likely elite 8.
