If I read this right, we're assured a 13-seed if Yale loses to Princeton today at noon EDT.

A perfect depiction of how stupid the Net rankings are:
No. 4 Tennessee is 7-7 against Quad 1 teams and 3-3 against Quad 2.
No. 9 Kansas is 17-7 against Quad 1 teams and 4-0 against Quad 2.

Also thanks for posting this. I'd seen Furman was 1-0 against Quad 2 teams, but I couldn't think of who that might've been.

At UNCG was the quad 2 win, at Samford would be a quad 2 if they were one spot higher.

15 teams with a lower net ranking that will be in the NCAA tournament. That is 6–16 seeds, 4–15 Seeds, 4–14 seeds. I don’t see why Furman would not be a 13 Seed.

Lunardi just updared at 3:30 has us as a 13 seed playing 4 Duke in Orlando. He obviously reads this board as I already predicted it. :lol:

yep in Orlando. Palm has it against Duke but in Greensboro. Basically a home game for Duke. Greensboro would be good for Dins though

We have too many threads going on for the same subjects. Hard to keep up with, but it is still fun.

Mercer beat Duke in the NCAA Tournament in FUBeAR’s hometown. Furman beating Duke in the NCAA Tournament in the city of FUBeAR’s birth seems apt.
