I love how we win not only another game, but a conference championship no less and we lose one spot in the NET. 

The biggest problem with the net is that Kent on the road was borderline Q2 or Q3 all year. We beat them so bad on the road that it dropped them down and they were never able to recover enough for that win to make it a Q2 win for us

My biggest complaint about NET is it doesn't take into account things like injuries. For example any team that beat Buffalo in December and January beat a pretty good mid-major team. With Frietag out UB was objectively below average to bad mid-major. In the eyes of the metric it views December UB being equal to late February UB, but in reality those teams are night and day different.

UMBC athletic department is savage.

Penn v Yale.  Penn player has 40.  made two 3s to force OT

USA Today has us playing Alabama in Philly with Miami as a play-in. There should be a pool to guess the selection bracket 😄

ESPN has us vs Kansas in OKC. Bring on the local kid.

Penn beats Yale in OT. Penn goes 100% from the FT line. The key to success in the Ivy League is never miss a free throw

Current game between USF and Shammah Scott’s old team Wichita State could impact Zips seeding. Currently USF is listed as an 11 seed in most brackets and Akron is a 12. However Akron has a stronger NET and WAB than Wichita. Go Shockers!
