Really? Just because it didn’t happen for the Pack (at least not yet) doesn’t mean it didn’t happen for others.
You missed several. Look at the table in the entry.
I agree with Alpha. The middle of the conference is extremely weak…which makes the conference weak overall. State, Pitt, and FSU were a combined 0-15 against the Top 4. Clemson and UMD got one win each. That makes the middle of the conference a combined 2-22 against the top-4 seeds.
That record doesn’t support the claim that any team can beat any other team.

You have to apply the transitive property. Then it all cancels out.
I think the bottom of the conference has a better record against the top of the conference than the middle does.
They’ve won 5 games against the top 4.
Does no one look at the tables in my entries?
The bottom six went 6-26 against the Top-4.
I read it, but that detail wasn’t important enough to retain until I saw your comment about the middle.
This year, I basically only care about what NC State is doing.
Umm, we are not on the bubble for an at-large bid. Not even close. I keep reading comments from State fans saying we just need to get to the finals on Sunday to get in. Nope, we have to win the tourney to get in. That’s it.
We currently have RPI of 60. I am assuming that wins over Miami, SyraDuke, and then a loss to Holes/Cavs yields an RPI of about 45. Likely we end up with at least one of Pitt or TN qualifying as a 3rd Top 50 win.
TJ is going to be snubbed out of POTY today and in return he is going to go off for 40+ in every game and take us to the NCAA tourney. Go F’n PACK!!!
It also depends on what our other bubble-mates do this week. However, we have ample opportunity that many don’t. If we get to the finals it will be very close. But nothing short of that will qualify. Too much ground to make up.
The Dance Card is being updated daily. So we’ll be able to track the changes on the Bubble if there are any upsets on Fri/Sat.
1. We are not yet on the bubble.
2. Win 1st round game and beat ‘cuze we are on bubble.
3. Lose in semi’s – miss tourney
4. Win in semi’s – definitely “in” on Saturday…
5. Lose – back on bubble, totally dependent on what other bubble teams do.We are definitely setting up to be an interesting case study. Our RPI is OK going into tournament and will be close even with loss in semis, but we have had very little media attention. The cw is that we have to win the acc to get a bid, but I guarantee you of we beat Miami, cuse, and duke we will have a very good RPI.
I don’t know why, but Pitt jumped “up” about 5 spots on today’s Dance Card and looks to be in much better shape.
