Lasalle moves into the top 100 with its win today. So that loss isn't really a "bad" one for us.

ON Si.com we have now moved into the First 4 out since good bubble losses happened yesterday (ODU, Ilinois, Texas A&M, Mississippi)

"Thursday was disastrous for NCAA tournament bubble teams".

s-man, your link is interesting. Using this, it appears as though 85% of teams with RPIs between 31 & 50 make the tourney. Using RPIForecast.com, if we win today and lose the next game, our expected RPI is 45.4. Win two more, we're at 36.

Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic, but it's nice seeing us considered "tourney worthy" by the Post's infographic and the forecasted RPI. None of it matters if we don't take care of business this afternoon though.

I still don't see us mentioned on any of the bubble lists, first four out or otherwise. Palm doesn't even list us. Maybe that will change with a win today and a win tomorrow. All of it is irrelevant without a win today.

LA Salle beating Davidson hurts, correct? Because we need really good wins to get at large, I think we want Davidson

The focus now should be win three in a row. More important win one in a row. then another one, and then one more. Bid stealers are going to come out, I am in mindset that we need to win out to play in the NCAA.

My only atlarge path was beating VCU and Davidson and losing a close one to dayton. The stars need to align for that one so not counting on it. For all we know it could be us or Lasalle against GW or Rhody for the fourth bid.

I agree sdspider. Just find the easiest path on paper in winning the the A10.
