Tonight was a very kenpom friendly game, I'm guessing it will be good for moving up a few spots. SLU is rated badly, but we beat them really badly at their place. I love some great kenpom padding.

kenpom already updated kstate to 33rd with a 9-9 conference record.  which is really close to projecting 30, no tourney.  although 9-9 may be good enough to get in.  still, very exciting.

9-9 in conference with a 33 kenpom gets us in easily, if the Big 12 is the number one conference that isn't even on the bubble.

9-9 with our non con 100% is on the bubble

i don't think the committee uses kenpom much (they shouldn't).  they've shown in the past that they do not like to reward teams that schedule poorly, so kstate likely won't get the benefit of the doubt, if it's close.

1. Scott, why did you drop two out of the three criteria I listed.
2. sys, they started using it last year along with other metrics.
3. 'clams, USC played in a trash conference and their kenpom and RPI were really high.

Over the past five years, 9-9 entailed finishing 5th through 7th place in the conference - 7th only once. 5th or 6th place in the best conference seems sufficient to get in.

It will be bubbly.  Remember 10-6.  We are a better conference now, but at the same time I still think the resume matters most.

2003-2004 FSU was ranked 27th in kenpom and didn't make the tournament. But it isn't going to be easy to match or beat. Basically have to lose a bunch of really close games on the road in conference play.

Significantly better, the Big 12 was the #4 conference that season and we have added three more at large spots since then.

This whole conversation is actually quite asinine. The conversation around a team who finishes 4th in the best conference with a 20-11 record, a kenpom in the 30s, and 5 top 50 wins is actually whether or not this team gets a single digit seed, not if they're getting in.

that's what would make it such an amazing achievement.

I don't know anything about how this would work, but I'm extremely happy that sys has found his thing to track this season, and I hope the 'cats can pull it off.

if kstate can't thirty, no tourney, perhaps tech can do it.  they've somehow managed to top us so far, getting to 31st against a 340th sos.

I am PRAYING for a 4-14 conference record. Then I'll ask, "Why fire him now?" Why? Why is year number 5 of consecutive worsening league records finally ENOUGH? I really want to know.
