I always enjoy the hoops blogs. Thanks Joey.

Do you think South Florida is a lock for the NIT (based on their current record and similar projection) or do they need to do more?

Yes. Considering the weakness of the bubble, I wouldn't count them out of the BD either. There's a path to 11-7 in the Big East, and if they could pair that with at least one win at the Garden, they'd have a decent case.

Thanks Joey.

I'd rather they got in the NIT and were able to make a bit of a run to gain some tournament experience, than to make the BD and end up a one and done.

No CU or CSU? I was thinking both look like they will be in.

Colorado isn't getting an at-large. Best nonconference win came by two points over RPI No. 114 Georgia and they've yet to beat a top 50 opponent. If they beat both Cal and Oregon, then maybe things change a little, but for now, they're easily an NIT team.

As I wrote about Colorado State:

Speaking of the Rams, they got that win they had to have, but I don't think they've locked up a bid just yet. They're 2-4 vs. the RPI top 50 and 6-6 vs. the top 100, but don't have real quality in the nonconference, have three losses outside the top 100 and are still just 6-5 in league. They likely need to win one of the next two (at San Diego State on Saturday, vs. UNLV 2/29) to feel comfortable heading into the MWC tourney.

Sorry, I skimmed right past the CSU bit. Hoping to see both make it in, always makes things fun around here when people have someone to root for.
Nice work on this, very enjoyable to read.

good call

it's so sad when they match 2 really good teams vs each other and 2 bad teams against each other. VCU is really good, but they get stuck with Wichita ST. Kentucky will have their hands full with either..I'm sure VCU would have loved to get Texas or Cinci.or Fla or Virginia or any number of teams they would have whupped.

Well said. It's also part of the committee's "mid-major elimination program."
