Do we make the tournament with this finish?
Win the rest of our home games, and win 1 out of 3 of our road games. 21-9 (12-6).
Yes or no? And let's say we win one Pac-12 tournament game.

i really don't see the university putting up the $$$ to enter the cbi again.
if we finish as strong as TK1 said in his post, the nit would be a strong possibility.

We either need to win out in the regular season or win the PAC12 tournament. And I'm not even sure winning out in the regular season will do it.

Re: Do we make the tournament with this finish?
We should hope for a strong finish and an NIT bid. If the Pac-12 had been stronger in non-conference play then the margin of error for making the NCAA's wouldn't have been so small. Losing to the Beavs was a big detriment to our resume, and losing that BS game to Colorado didn't help either. We could get hot and win the Pac-12 tournament though...

Re: Do we make the tournament with this finish?
I am pretty sure 13 wins would get us there, as that would likely put us in the top 2 at the end of the season. However, winning the next 5 out of 6 is a VERY big long shot, considering we NEVER seem to win in the Bay Area.pudgejeff wrote:We either need to win out in the regular season or win the PAC12 tournament.

Re: Do we make the tournament with this finish?
yeah, winning out in the regular season would give us at least a share of the regular season title... and i don't see a scenario where the committee leaves out the regular season champ. that would also give us huge road wins in the bay. we'd be in.
but, i don't see us winning out. cal should smack us upside the head again.
winning 5 of our last 6 (losing in berkeley) and making the tournament championship game down in LA, but losing, would put us in a very interesting spot. we'd be 24-9, with decent rpi boosts with road wins @ palo alto and corvallis.

I think the PAC 12 is 0-12 agains top 25 teams. That is going to pulls us down regardless of wins and losses.

No way do we win 20+ and not get in the NIT. You guys are crazy. If we win 4 more games we are in the NCAA IMO.

currently 73rd in the RPI
I think we need to win 4 out of the final 5 games.
Maybe only 3 if we can beat Cal.

Re: Do we make the tournament with this finish?
We can definitely beat Utah and Colorado at home. But winning two out of 3 on the road against Cal, Stanford, and OSU? Yikes, might be a tall order. I'd honestly call 1 win (probably against OSU) against those 3 on the road would be a success.
