    ESPN's Bubble Watch now says UC "should be in". UC has a 76% chance to get in. UNC has an 87% chance to get in. Louisville has a 60% chance to get in. Just look at those three, and ESPN clearly needs to toss their model in the trash and start over.

    Who the heck is in charge of bubble watch at ESPN? It's clear that person or staff have zero clue what is going on.

    In other news, Wake got a big win at Stanford last night. The not great Demon Deacons are 17-6, 9-3 now. Every little bit helps for the Muskies.

    Someone is drunk, high, stoned, and brain damaged! There's no way that's Joe Lunardi. That's something else on the site that has nothing to do with him and that's WAAAAAAY out of whack!

    UCF losing to UC probably helps us though. BYU losing to Arizona, Pitt knocking themselves out with loss to Virginia. Arizona state took a big loss, hard to see them fighting back. Vandy losing at Florida isn’t bad but a win would’ve helped their case even more. USC losing to Northwestern.

    Frankly a lot of the teams around the cut line or the 8 teams out took some losses. In that regard it’s actually been a good week for X. But ultimately, if X goes 8-0 they are a lock, 7-1 likely in, 6-2 likely out. Thats how I see it regardless of what happens around them.

    To add to your point, I don't take a lot of stock into what other bubble teams are doing this time of year because in the end, it doesn't really matter if X doesn't take care of business. If they do, it will work itself out, if they don't then it doesn't matter what the other teams do. The only thing I'm really paying attention to are teams within our own conference, because of Q1 opportunities and which teams are going up and down in terms of net. I'd have rather UC lost last night because F UC and hope they lose every game.

    We are fighting for one of the last spots with UC. So yes who gives a sh*t if they win at this point

    Uc is not a bubble team at this point. They aren’t even a mention on anyone’s radar. Lunardi, bracketmatrix torvik etc. the only place they are mentioned is the hack “journalism” on espns bubble watch which is laughable at best. If anyone believes they are, then both those teams are bubble teams, so it didn’t matter who won. It would help and hurt at the same time

    UC isn’t even close. For that matter, neither is Dayton. They do have an easier auto bid possibility but they don’t have an at large shot.

    No, no, no. We really needed WF to lose that game lol. Need them to take another loss or two. They are slightly ahead of us on the bubble after that Q1 win
