RE: Cats are going to the NCAA

[dfairchild]

I made a mistake in my previous post - it looks like there will be 18
conferences with only one bid - which leaves 47 bids to be claimed.  UC is
currently 31 in the RPI.  If you go strictly be the rpi the cutoff as of
this morning would be including Oregon at 48 (Weber St has an automatic bid,
from a 1 bid conference at 39).  The last four out would be Texas Tech (50),
St. Louis (51), Tennessee (52), and North Carolina (54).  The last four in
would be Oregon (48), Indiana (47), LSU (44), and Gonzaga (43).

The most suspect of those in, IMHO, are UC (31), ASU (32), Alabama (37) and
Auburn (38).

UC, Alabama, Auburn, and Texas Tech are all 4-6 in their last 10.

Amazing to see what the Cats fans think about our chances of going to the
NCAA tournament.  The Bearcatnews poll is tied at exactly 132 votes each
way.
