The bubble is the crappiest it's been as long as I can remember actively following college basketball.
Well clearly the solution is to add 31 more teams. That'll solve it.
So many shitty teams, surprised the CAA or MVC schools are without solid bubble teams.
How is Ohio a 14 seed? Joe Lunardi has them as a 14 as well and I truly don't get it. They came in 9th place in the MAC and they have no notable wins out of conference. It is becoming more and more clear that I am missing something for I do not believe the MAC to be a powerful conference.
They have managed to beat 4 RPI top-100 teams which is more than the teams behind them like Montana, Morgan State, etc.
For all the talk of a weak bubble, I can't believe we're at a place now where teams like Florida and Virginia Tech are on the outside looking in.
I don't have Wake nearly that low, Zach. They have 6 top 50 wins. I have them a 7 or 8 seed. Games earlier in the season count just as much as games down the stretch.
I do. They were despicable down the stretch and lost to Miami in blowout fashion. People say that games earlier count equally. I don't buy it.
I mean, if you really want to dig deep with Wake, their win at Gonzaga came when Gonzaga's most talented player was ejected in the 1st half and the Richmond and Xavier wins were at home in OT. Not taking anything away from that, but let's not go crazy about those wins. All 6 or 7 seeds.
Moving Cal into Last Four In. Guerrero essentially just said they barely look at RPI. Good for Minnesota and Illinois.
