Re: Latest ESPN Bracketology has UC in as #12 seed

He said 19 would make them a bubble team.  He said 20 would make it more of a lock.  FWIW, I disagree with him.  19 wins (18-12 discounting Ark-Mont and figuring a 1st round Big East loss) will be enough IMO.  There schedule will be one of the ten toughest at the end of the season.  I just am not sure they can get to 19.  I don't see how they can keep an 8-8 team from the Big East out of the tourney.

    In the end, I'd think 19 wins against UC's strength of schedule (as reflected in the RPI) would be enough
  Buford said on Homer he didn't think 19 would get them in (even if they were to win four more games which I doubt) because the team they have now without Kirkland would be 6-9. Plus he also said if Huggins were the coach they might give them the benefit of the doubt but not with Kennedy. So first they would have to win the 4 games and that still might not be enough. Don
