When did Northwestern enter the conversation? Pre-injury Rutgers, maybe

Oops, sorry, yeah, I think you're right about Clemson and Utah State. They would probably struggle to get 8 wins in the Big 12.

It comes down to the argument then on which team deserves to get in, a team that won alot of games like Clemson, or the team that played a tougher schedule.

Rutgers jumping on Purdue and I'm just not into hoping ISU gets them or someone similar first round.

Agree, their non-conference was a joke and they have two bad losses to Southern Illinois and UCF.

Most of their big 12 wins were beating up on us twice, Oklahoma, and Tech. They were 0-8 against the top 4. That's a NIT resume if I've ever seen one.

Penn State, Rutgers, Utah State , Clemson should all be ahead of them in the bubble order.

As of 11:30 this morning, Lunardi has Oklahoma State as his first team out. I agree with that.

Yeah, that sounds about right, I think they'll either be in Dayton or the first team left out.

Might be too early but are there any bid stealers with a legitimate chance? Nova and DePaul lost last night, ACC seems pretty chalk so far.

Only one I can think of is Ohio State at this point.

Oregon could steal one. On the bubble now.

Hopefully Arizona or UCLA sends them to the NIT then.

Still to early but I would say:

Oregon
Vanderbilt
American Conference champ that isn't Houston or Memphis.

Houston in a battle with... East Carolina??
I think Houston is a good team but I also think their numbers are inflated from the teams they have played.

 

[JP4CY]

Woof

Bama destroying Miss. St. at half. Looks like Purdue is going to pull off the win.

Been floating around #1 all year, but they definitely haven't played a very tough schedule. They're good, but IMO they've got a 3 seed resume.

Still a 4 point game with 2 minutes left. I want to be in Purdue's bracket.

Yeah, Purdue seems bound to have another early exit from the tournament.

#4 for Rutgers just had the worst flop I've ever seen

Marcus Smart gives it a 4/10

A flop, but Edey should have never came into that and pulled 4 back.

Yeah, that dude totally tried to sell that, but Edey should have put himself in that position.

 

[stormchaser2014]

I said it before, Purdue isn't going to make it past the first weekend.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Purdue better not run into a pressing team lol. Their press break appears to consist of randomly throwing the ball when they get trapped.
