NTR :( - si.com NCAA bubble watch - 02.02.16
Very not Tiger related :(

With each passing week, it looks more and more like this is going to be a one-bid league. Only Cincinnati (16–6, 6–3) and Connecticut (15–6, 5–3) have done enough to be considered for an at-large spot, and both of those teams likely have some work to do to secure a bid.

....

The committee isn’t going to care if about wins over the likes of Houston, Memphis or Tulsa. That’s why third-tier teams in the conference, like Temple (12–8, 6–3) and Tulsa (14–7, 6–3) are going to have a hard time earning an at-large invite.

Crap. We are not only not even on the bubble, we're a 'no-credit' win now and/or a bad loss.

RPI: 125 (http://realtimerpi.com/rpi_223_Men.html) projected 19-12
KenPom: 77 (http://kenpom.com/)

This guy has us on the NIT bubble: http://www.dratings.com/predictor/bracketology/

But 125 RPI won't hunt. Lowest RPI of an at-large NIT berth last year? 104.

Our only remote shot is to win the conf tourney which apparently is the only AAC shot period.

It's not Josh's fault. He said so yesterday on the podcast.
