Not surprisingly, we’re currently ‘Bubble…but OUT’
Bubble But Out
(86) NC State (9-3) (0-0)
Last 10 – (8-2)
Good Wins – (81) Tennessee
Bad Losses – NONE
Notes – I hold signature victories and road wins in high regard. NC State has neither, and that’s why Georgia Tech got the nod despite a worse RPI. The Wolfpack let a golden opportunity slip away, when they couldn’t finish off Missouri in Raleigh. All is not lost though, there is a game at UNC-Greensboro which shouldn’t be overlooked, then a must win game with Pittsburgh at home. Win both and Wolfpack are on the right side of the bubble.
Yeah, way too early … All of his ‘bubble’ teams and a couple of his ‘locks’ need significant help/work to sniff a bid. Virginia and Pitt are far from ‘lock’ status. UVa hasn’t beaten anyone, and Pittsburgh hasn’t played anyone (Stanford? No. Lost neutral court to Cincy – that’s not even bubble worthy).
Yeah Central is pretty solid, but their RPI will be such that it has to be listed in the bad ‘L’ column.
The Mizzou game was SO BIG for so many reasons — one of the biggest was how much a win (with Jordan Vandenberg in the line-up) would’ve stated the case that our two losses (that happened with Vandenberg injured) should be completely overlooked.
Why oh why did Bobby Lutz let Gottfried start talking to the team in the last five minutes of that game!?
Similar to this topic, here is a look at how the current conference shapes up based on NCAAGameSim.com as of today.
