2012 Bracket Busters Projections

[XManCometh]

Warren Nolan has their rpi at 67!

It's sure to drop with their remaining games. It's only at 67 thanks to playing Duke and Kansas. Sprinkle in a few more Citadel, Wofford and Samford games that they have left and it's down to below 80 in no time.

So, Davidson goes to the final four this year? No wait, we have to lose the game at home.

Never mind.

Only good if you win. Wsu has no one to blame but itself for getting beat every time.

Someone explain to me why the Valley participates in this again?

More like 67 duderino. They dropped a deuce against a 300 RPI team Saturday night to drop about twenty spots.

And it is only going to get worse. Look at their schedule most of their remaining games are against SUB 200 rpi teams. Their best remaining opponent has an rpi around 130.

They may not even finish in the top 100. It will be IMPOSSIBLE for them to finish in the top 50.

THIS IS A TOTAL SCREW JOB!!! ANDY KATZ GOT HIS REVENGE. Mason would probably have ended up being a better opponent.

Their projected RPI via warrennolan is 55, but that's without laying another egg I'm sure. Losing to another 300+ RPI team plus a loss (hopefully) to us could mean they end up out of the top 100, which would be a disaster.

Creighton fans have to be pissed, and pissed at us for losing Saturday....and I can't blame them one bit in either case.

We got screwed, they got raped.

...Andy Katz looks like Bill Murray - I expect the groundhog to show up any minute.

I don't have time tonight, but maybe @RoyalShock or @WuShock Reaper: have time to see how these matchups would be without the Valley?

[_kai_]

This is ridiculous.

Who is Chinless Joe between Stuart Scott II and Katz?

Bracketbusters is only around thanks to the Valley participating. Without the MVC, this event doesn't happen.

Playing a 46 RPI on the road isn't bad - it's a chance to solidify our slot in the tournament (if we win); if we lose, it isn't a killer. At some point we must absolutely start winning these games if we really want respect. We have layed enough eggs already.

OK, so it's 67? We need to put the hammer down and dominate this game - only way to prove we deserved better.

Looking at their remaining schedule there is a good chance they will be a sub 100 team by the end of the season. IMPOSSIBLE FOR THEM TO BE A TOP 50 rpi team at the end of the season!

100% Elimination game for us.

If we lose, we repeat as NIT Champions.
