Bubble Watch - Saturday 3/12

because we've had trouble showing up for road games.

I understand that, but still, I expect them to more or less blow Iowa St out of the water, I would give them a 1.5 pt favorites and chalk it up as road issues. Somewhat scares me because when they are this close the projections are normally pretty spot on.
 
Colorado [17-11 (6-7), RPI: 73, SOS: 74] Does the Watch think the Buffaloes are in the bubble picture at the moment? Not really. But if the committee was trying to seed the field today and was considering Nebraska and Baylor, it would be criminal if Colorado didn't also get a look. No, Tad Boyle's team hasn't been impressive lately. Yes, its nonconference schedule was awful. Yes, that RPI is gross. But Colorado does have more good wins -- including one over Missouri and a season sweep of Kansas State -- than either Baylor or Nebraska, and its overall record is right there as well. Saturday is go time, as Texas travels to Boulder for a game the Buffaloes almost have to win if they want to get anything more than a cursory look come Selection Sunday.

Haha. I thought that would get some attention. I hope that Bz gives us a parting gift today. If his crap team wins on the road at Clemson, the Tigers are out of bubble consideration and may drop below the Buffs in RPI.
 
Man, some of those silly losses have really come back to bite us.

Maybe if we can make some noise in the B12 tourney, that will help.
 
Why are we rooting against CSU? Doesn't a win by them help our RPI? I'm pretty sure they're already in barring an absolutely epic collapse.....is that what we're rooting for?

They're seriously on the bubble. Most likely out right now. They're certainly not so far in that we don't need to worry about them...
 
Team's not ready for prime time. Been the theme all year. Hopefully we win the last 2 and get a good NIT seed.
