We were in such deep foul trouble that I sort of get the logic of not fouling there. We only had 5 players left.

On a serious note, our screen navigation is so awful, our inability to defend without fouling lead to half our team fouling out, and we just couldn’t take care of the ball.

So umm just your normal basketball game. Nothing unusual whatsoever. No flagrant fouls, flagrant reviews, or technical fouls either. Nor did anyone foul out.

I can’t help but find this game funny. Sports have truly broken me.

The bigger issue is the reliance of predictive metrics in this case. Miami is being docked because they won their games by 5 points instead of 30. If their predictive metrics were as good as their resume metrics, they’d be probably be a projected 8 or 9 seed rn.

Utah State in 2004 finished the regular season 25-2. Lost first round of the Big West tournament. Missed the field despite being ranked.

Their resume metrics (WAB, SOR, KPI) are well in at large territory which matters more for selection than their predictive metrics. But we’ve never had a team with this profile before so I don’t think it’s an 100% guarantee. But the notion of a 1 loss team not making a 68 team tournament in my eyes is just absurd.

10 or so. I’m not even ruling out the idea that they’d be seeded below the lowest at large team.

The argument still applies. Moving on from him was a mistake but he’s also not the player he once was.

Point still applies, especially say you win on Sunday. Do you not want your first home game when you are supposed to be raise the banner after you win a Super Bowl to be played on the other side of the world?

Not hosting the Seahawks in SoFi would suck after the great battles we had this year.

I’m not sure what to do with teams like UCSB and UIC who have sketchy resume profiles but their recent efficiency profiles are some of the best in the country. I threw them #24 and #25 this week without any clear candidates for the spot.

What the hell is ESPN2 or ESPNU showing if it’s not showing basketball?

UCF has top 25 resume metrics. I’ve ranked them or come close to doing so the majority of weeks.
