Sunday CBB games on tv

Both Drake and Indiana State deserve bids. Instead of some garbage power 5, 18-14 team.
Agreed. I think if we want both in we have to root for Drake because I think Indiana State has a much higher chance for at large bid. I doubt Drake will get one they had a couple really bad losses they should not have had early in the year.

With the NET being the NCAA love tool that it is Indiana State is 26 and Drake is 47.
 
Longwood won all of 6 conference regular season game and is now 20 minutes away from punching a ticket to the big dance leading 42-24 at the half vs UNC Ashville.
 
Drake has the quad 1 wins (3 of them) and Indiana State has only 1 quad 1 win.........but ironically Indiana State is NET 26 and Drake is NET 47.

Indiana State shouldn't have crapped the bed once they got ranked losing at home to a crappy team.

That said everyone has a bad day so Indiana State should be in based off those crappy NET rankings the NCAA uses.

The announcer said something like "with all respect to Jerry Palm I think both are NCAA teams" haha
 
Ohio State looking for their 5th win in 6 games since firing their coach is up 52-35 on the road at Rutgers and would finish 19-12 in the regular season if they can hold on. Left for dead a few weeks ago all of a sudden Ohio State is stacking up a resume to be back in the bubble mix if they win today.

Wins at home vs Purdue and Nebraska, a neutral court win over Alabama and a road win over Michigan State.

This would be a nice gift for me if Ohio State made it into the big dance.
 
Surely State can get in even with a loss.
Should be in based on NET but they only have 1 quad 1 win. That home loss to Illinois State a quad 4 loss cripples their resume.

They entered today 27 in the NET.

1-4 in quad 1 if they lose
4-1 in quad 2
27 division 1 wins

no real "quality" wins as far as ncaa at large team wins

Best win @ Bradley only quad 1 win.
next best win vs Drake at home quad 2 win.

So this would be all about that NET ranking and nothing else

Even Drake had a quality non conf win beating Nevada.

I feel like Indiana State is safe.. right? They were 24th going into last night's game in the polls.. so a win and a loss.

Got a feeling Drake just stole a bid.
 
I can still see Indiana St getting an at-large. Both of these, ISU and Drake, are teams that can win at least 1 game in the NCAAT. Could even seeing them pull off a 2nd game upset.
