Re: Cats are going to the NCAA

[Andy Swaney]

some site i read the other day had this guy who has projected the field right every time the last 7 years, and he said UC was a LOCK to get in, so i think we'll be ok
no team with an rpi better than 34 (ours is 32 i think) has ever missed the dance.  i just looked at a lot of sites, lunardi, fox, usatoday have us in and cbs has us out.  i think were assured to get in unless every bad team such as UNC, uab, temple, etc win some conference tourneys, but even then i think we're in
oh and lunardi had us as an 8 and moving UP??!!!!
i think we will be 9 or 10

I don't think there is much to worry about..I have a pretty good feeling UC is in. With a top 5 SOS and a Top 30 rpi, it would be very hard to keep them out..Either way, you can't be too disappointed about this season. The bottom line is: the talent is just not there. It will be in the near future, but it isn't this year, that is why I keep saying for the younger guys to play more, so they get some more experience..Either way, they will probably get a 10,11, or 12 seed so lets look forward to some upsets to come!

C-USA getting five bids. The question is whether we are the
last team in. If that is the case, and St. Louis who wouldn't
get a bid without winning the C-USA tournament gets in...then
they will knock the last at-large team in, out of the tournament.

If we are more deserving than other at-large teams, then we will
get in. My point is that people keep saying that C-USA cannot
get 5 bids and if St. Louis is in, we are out. That is not the
case. The people who make out the bracket consider teams independent
of conference (supposedly). The only way St. Louis knocks us out
is if they win the tournament and then we happen to be the last team
in from an at-large standpoint.
