Final from Thursday afternoon

Georgetown (#6 in coaches poll) 2 Creighton(#3 in coaches poll) 1

Gaucho Dan had Creighton at #6 in RPI and he had Georgetown at #10 in the RPI before the game

will be interesting to see where he has them....after he adds in this result.....

Creighton clearly does not deserve to be one of the top 4 teams when the NCAA does the draw

akron winning at Georgetown and Creighton losing at Georgetown.....should factor heavily in the NCAA seeding committee decision

Gaucho Dan is amazing....

he has Georgetown moving up to #6.....after their win today (Akron is still at #4 and Stanford is still at #5)

Gaucho Dan has Creighton dropping to #8 in the RPI

unrelated....we all remember Akron playing Marquette in 2013....Marquette has fallen on hard soccer times...

Marquette lost today to DePaul and Marquette is 5-10-2 this year

And so the UCLA loss looms large, moreso in the eyes of the commitee than in RPI.

We still have 3 to play before the NCAA Tourney. I hope the players aren't lamenting UCLA. There's nothing to be gained in that.

Players cannot afford to lament the loss to UCLA any more they they can afford to read this forum. This here is nothing but fan talk.

I know. I shouldn't have commented just because I'm trying to get beyond the woulda, coulda, shoulda stuff myself. First, I can't change it. 2nd, I don't really know what it would have meant. RPI is supposed to mean something, but I don't think I've ever seen any NCAA Selection Committee apply it the way it should be used. There seems to still be backroom deals, smoke-filled or not. The "power" conferences seem to watch out for each other. So, I just ignore it until it happens, then bitch. I can't change that either.

I'm more concerned that the guys learned something positive from the UCLA match and use those lessons going forward.
