    Xavier 2

    Not including Providence or Georgetown as top half of BE.
    There are 11 teams. You list 6. Is that the top half? Said another way, is this the number of games these 6 teams play against each other?

    We’re tied for 5th with Nova right now, 2-3 games behind the pack. I think we gotta get to 4th to be assured of a bid. If we’re in 5th, it’s Bubble City for us.

    We need Marquette and St John’s to just win out and help knock Creighton and Ucon down a notch.

    Next Creighton game is a must win.

    MU & SJU are locks and we went 1-3 against them. We split with UConn.

    Losing to Creighton again puts us in 5th place with a 2-6 record against the top 4. Zero chance.

    Creighton is 8-2 I think now. UConn I think is 6-4. Might need to catch them to lock up a bid.

    Lunardi didn't even move us, which i found interesting:

    https://www.espn.com/espn/feature/st...ld-predictions

    Bracketmatrix right now has us as fourth team out:

    Not sure if this will pop up correctly or not, but on Barttorvik, you can predict W-L records for your specific team and see what he projects for your team's tourney chances.

    I hypothetically put X at 7-2 the rest of the way losing @nova and @butler. Of course this isn't perfect, but he would have X aas first team out in that scenario. I guess what I'm saying is, we better go 8-1, otherwise it's going to just be way too tight.

    You can play around with different scenarios. It's fun and kinda depressing all at the same time.

    Xavier's women don't show up on the latest Bracketology. Very puzzling.

    While currently not in, this is a good sign.

    Finish strong and we have a chance. The schedule allows for it. Let's do this!

    Yeah. I think the next three games will determine if x makes the tourney or not. Go 3-0 and x should be dancing. 1-2 and it’s wait until next year. 2-1 and have to win out and I just don’t know if this team can go on that kind of run.

    I am hoping we win 5 of the next 6. Look at an somewhat improved Maddox/Hugley-led bench, and Foster's play continues to trend upwards. Now, Coach has pledged to use Fletcher gently, and we might see hom easing into more playing time. Also, I believe that Conwell's woes are behind him(please, Jesus)! And Rome shall rise again.

    North Carolina still in as a play-in team despite being an absolute shit-show. Just goes to show you don't have to be any good to make the Tournament out of a power conference (as has been pointed out many times here about how flawed the Bubble teams are). Let's hope we can find a way to be minimally competent!

    Remaining games each top 6 team in BE current standings have to play vs each other for remainder of regular season.

    Still no love for the smaller conferences, but at least some teams are finally getting noticed. St. Mary's New Mexico, Utah State (they have been getting votes for a while), Drake, George Mason and Zags.

    Speaking of the Zags, are they in trouble? Probably not, but this season is not typical for them.
