For the few remaining PATTs left out there
Lunardi only moved us down 1 slot. The problem of course is, assuming he is accurate, we got to pass 4 teams. Oklahoma and Auburn play TAM and Alabama tonight. Realistically both probably have to lose. The Committee doesn't seem to really penalize conference tournament losses, unless of course Seth G is the coach. Anyway unless we are planning on winning 5 games in 5 days (not) we would be better to start the steep uphill climb with OK and Auburn both losing tonight,.

And…
There are some huge arguments against Auburn and SMU from bracketologists better than Lunardi I am not holding my breath but when you are in pretty much everyone’s next four then you have a shot. Every year there is a head scratcher or two. CH

You are right, not sure what I was looking at

We actually moved up a spot in the NET, too.
Every single other team on the bubble lost yesterday. And our loss was the most impressive of them all. So we are actually in an ever-so-slightly better spot than we were on Friday. If that makes any sense, haha.

Yeah. Beat Wake, beat Clemson (Q1) and you’ve got some momentum.
Enough? TBD.

Aluma, Mutts, and Cattoor are not walking in that door.
Doing a VT version of a famous quote from Rick Pitino.

Ha, agreed. But VT also beat both of those teams by 29 pts in last month.
