Hoping for a quality win today. I’m cautiously starting to like this team but today will be a very telling game on defensive side. We can’t score enough to get in a shootout with Tech so hope defense keeps them in the 60s. Win today and I think we are officially on the bubble.

Their record doesnt change their ranking.
Sorry you dont like my facts. Neither of those are "bad losses" bad losses are to teams ranked outside the top 100.
We have none of those.

We have to win against teams with those rankings, especially

at home or on a neutral court, to have a chance at the tourney. If we had won those 2 games, we would be listed as on the bubble or better. We lost them, hence we are not listed as a bubble team. With the automatic berths, I can guarantee you a number 55 team isn't going in with that kind of winning percentage.

I am aware of that... I have never said that we did.
We dont have any signature wins that is what is holding us back right now.
You and the other guy said we have bad losses... We in fact have zero bad losses. We just need to get some good wins on the resume.
Once again Creightons NCAAT outlook doesnt matter to their quality. Good teams dont go to the NCAA T every year.

I said we had losses to teams that will not be in the NCAA

tourney. I stand by that statement. So you made the cutoff for bad losses for a ranking of 100 or lower. Does the NCAA selection committee sanction that, or did you come up with that all by yourself?

When looking at teams resumes they literally break down your record based on teams ranked 1-25 25-50 50-100 and 100 up.
Anything greater than 100 is considered bad...
No you jumped into a conversation about bad losses by saying that we had bad losses.
You were wrong period have a nice day im enjoying watching Clemson win instead of trying to tear them down with false claims.

I never used the term bad losses. I said non-NCAA tounament

teams. When you trying to secure a NCAA tournament bid, any losses to NIT bound teams at home or on a neutral court are bad. It is stupid to conclude anything else. Turn those losses to wins, and we are considered contenders today. Without those, we have to win sone games against NCAA bound teams going forward to get back in the hunt. I hope that begins today. It is common sense.

I asked who were our bad losses and you said those two teams...
That is basically you calling them bad losses.
Not going to argue semantics with you. You were wrong. Our lack fo quality wins are holding us back not our "bad losses".

as a bubble team going into today. That is a fact Those 2 losses are the reason why. You called me wrong, and I am calling you wrong. You are right about those 2 losses not being bad when being considered for the NIT.
