UNI stayed put at #25 today, but other Valley teams saw their RPI go up. MSU broke the top 20 at #19, WSU jumped past us to 24, and SIU is 29. The good news for us is that UNI is now 6-1 vs the top 25. I don't think any other school has a record that impressive vs the top 25.

A Syracuse loss, and LSU & Iowa wins today should push our RPI up a bit after today. It would be great if Iowa & LSU won their conference tourneys actually (unless the Hawks play the Badgers, of course!).
Bradley moved up to 35, Creighton 40... and in probably the biggest key for us yesterday, Bucknell moved up to 49. -
Agree MadCat, we need LSU and Iowa to keep winning, if for no other reason then to make our wins look all the more impressive and improve regions and seeding (if not help us get in). Bucknell needs to win their tournament to not cost the bubble a bid, but even if their RPI slips into the 50's I have a feeling the committee will give us credit for a top 50 win anyways, because Bucknell has more then proven themselves out of conference and in (they pound everyone, which is something Gonzaga did'nt do), and they can't help that their conference is horribleOriginally posted by UNI MadCatComment

We would like to see Bucknell, Syracuse (if G'Town wins, they jump in front of us---plus it helps out Bucknell), Iowa, and LSU to win today.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

PTTB - that means you think Syracuse is in right now I'm assuming. (I do too...but just checking with you). Does that mean Seton Hall or Cincinnati is out? Bucknell, Iowa and LSU need to win for sure.
Air Force losing last night was a good thing...if San Diego State can win the Mountain West Tourney. (at least that's what I was thinking while watching the game last night).

Seton Hall is definitely out after losing to Rutgers on Wednesday. Cincinnatti can still get in, but their best player is hurt which doesn't help them in the selection room. My gut feeling is that they are out and the big east only gets 7.Comment

Oh, I guess I was assuming that a Syracuse loss would move us ahead of them. Hmmm... ok, I see your point. I guess I dont really care what happens either way then, really. However, I will say that another 'Cuse win likely gives them a better seed than us (if they haven't locked that up already).Originally posted by Panthers to the BoneComment

Syracuse is in. Seton Hall is out. And Cinci is on the bubble...and I guess the right side of the bubble.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
