Eye test will be used 173 times during the ESPN follow up show to the CBS bracket show.

Actual Over under 44.

The "Eye Test" is code for subjective placement to put a team where we would like.

Bingo.

We do well on the eye test, minus the UConn game, but I do agree it is subjective. This year, playing our schedule, I understand what they mean. We shall see. Maybe our schedule has prepared us for a run, who knows. Stranger things have happened.

Perhaps. THe cold hard numbers of top 50 RPI record really sells short what we did and who we played in the top 50

we certainly shouldn't be punched in the mouth by anyone.

But will it outnumber "body of work"?

BigTigerMike · 03-16-2014 04:27 PM

If someone wanted to be subjective an eye test could be define as: Louisville won 7 games in a row by a margin of 30 before losing to Memphis and then preceded to win their last 6 by a margin around 40 points. So what does that tells you about Memphis?

My eye test is saying none of these top teams in college are dominating. On a given night, all of them can be beat. Florida has managed to win their tight games. I still haven't seen much of wichita state this year. Bunch of teams have a good shot at the championship this year.

I haven't seen much of Wich St either. Even though they played against morbid competition, they also beat the snot out of most everyone as well. It wasn't like they were playing close games. They pretty much took care of business.

tigerderek · 03-16-2014 04:53 PM

they are pimping loserville hard... they said they dominated the league but I say why didn't they win it out right and why did they get swept by sorry little ol memphis...while they are playing good right now their ooc schedule was horrid and DO NOT deserve a 1 or 2 seed.

tmoneyinmphs · 03-16-2014 05:05 PM

During one point in the season, i felt like the tigers were a borderline sweet 16 team, now i'm not sure. We ended the season bad. Guess a lot will depend on who we will face. When we lost to florida, i felt they would end up in final 4. Kansas should have the talent to be final 4, but they are beatable. Ville is a strong team but obviously they are beatable. Arizona is pretty strong. Duke has a good team. Then you got 5-7 teams i haven't mentioned who have a legit shot depending on their path as well.

twcoleman · 03-16-2014 05:05 PM

Wow, VCU got a 5 seed.
