2019-20 Games of Interest

What's your definition of "stack"?

I can't see the original quote but I'm guessing that was directed to my UNI comment. The answer about how they stack?

They have the best win and that's where it ends. Order of ranking of wins

UNI - @23 Colorado
WSU - @61 UCONN
WSU - @71 OSU
WSU - vs 45 OU
UNI/WSU - Neutral 63 South Carolina
WSU - @87 SMU
WSU - Vs 60 Memphis
WSU - VS 67 VCU
UNI - @109 Bradley
UNI - @115 Missouri State
WSU - @127 USF
WSU - @130 UCF

That's the entirety of the Q1/Q2 wins for both. WSU has 7 of the Top 9 wins (which are teams that are likely NCAA/NIT quality)

With Losses here is the rankings of Worst losses

UNI - @197 ISUr
UNI - Neutral 151 Drake (by 21)
UNI - @163 SIU
That's really where the "bad losses end for both teams, but for comparison we will include Q2b losses
WSU - @116 Temple
UNI - @105 ISUb

So that's 4 of the 5 worst losses below to UNI

Let's go one more further and look at analytical rankings that are on the team sheet

NET: UNI 47, WSU 48
KP: WSU 40, UNI 48
BPI: WSU 41, UNI 66
Sag: WSU 43, UNI 89
KPI: WSU 37, UNI 57
SOR: WSU 32, UNI 54

5 of 6 analytics heavily favor WSU.

Basically the ONLY way you can try to say UNI is in before WSU is to ignore EVERYTHING except the Colorado win and put 100% weight on that.

Wasn't directed at you, but still a nice post.

Watching Creighton play so well kind of hurts the soul.

Don’t worry. The NCAAs are coming.

Pretty good start for the day/

Texas with the quality 22 pt loss at home to Oklahoma State. Should secure a bid for them

Shaka screwed the possum on that one.

[ShockRef]

Thanks to the U! Syracuse goes down hard.

That is all.

Merrill is phenomenal player. First time I've seen USU play and I'm impressed.

[Stickboy46]

Utah State steals a bid

Reaves drops 41 to beat TCU by 2 ....
