So when does...

[Rudi]

the 4th place team in the Mountain West conference [one of the best conferences in basketball this year] get consideration for a spot in the tournament?? At 17-9 (6-5) I believe Colorado State should be in as of now. Sure their only big wins are at home against SDSU and New Mexico, but I think they are a stronger team than some of the current teams considered to be ahead of them. Teams like Northwestern and Miami who are pretty shitty but get a pass just because they are in a bigger conference.

Wheres the respect for the Rams??

Win last night was a huge one, still dont think they get in tho.

[Proof21]

Win the last 3 games and they should be in.

[Archer]

I'd say they have a great shot of making it but the argument against them would be that they were unimpressive OOC with only Colorado as a semi-decent win and the bottom half of the MWC is rated terribly in basically every metric that Lunardi etc use.

Basically they lack quality wins.

I'm almost 100% positive he did this morning on SC

Unless they collapse, it's gonna be hard to keep them out.

Sure they have only 2 big wins, and although inflated, their RPI is now 24 with an SOS of 6, gonna be real hard to keep someone out with those numbers.

[Rudi]

Damn I didn't realize their numbers were that strong. Barring a major collapse, they gotta be the MWC's 4th team

Big game for the Rams tonight

How on earth is that the 6th best schedule? And I have no idea how their RPI is so high with zero quality road wins.

Best wins are all at home...Montana, New Mexico, Colorado, UNLV. Good wins, but not exactly murderer's row.

Had cracks at Duke, Southern Miss, Stanford, Northern Iowa, and UNLV on the road and lost them all.

I don't think i'd put them in.

Their SOS is now 59th on kenpom, hard to believe it was ever 6th.

Yeah, after looking at the schedule, it definitely looked fishy.
