BYU isn't even on ESPN's Bubble Watch anymore; it's definitely looking like WCC

tournament or bust for us this year. Even running the regular season table might not get us in at this point.

Oh well, there's always next year...

Running the table would make us 23-8

Except a win at gonzaga this year would be a great win along

Just like our win at gonzaga last year

Was gonzaga the number one team in the country at any point last year?

They were projected as a one seed at the time ended with a 2

you are thinking of 2 years ago. Last year Gonzaga was a bubble team themselves

Wouldn't we have a RPI of 36 and 98% chance of making the tourney if we win out?

Sorry, clarification...winning out until CG WCC tourney.

coug10278

good point. would give us 3 top 50 wins (assuming St. Mary's would stay top 50

BYU is at 2 or 3% odds to win 3 in a row in conference tourney.

Better wins and worse losses. 25 wins seems to be the magic number since we've joined the wcc

Finishing 3rd in WCC will be a challenge for BYU. No quality wins = no NCAA!

2/8/17 7:06am

Just win the conference tourney

I think that shipped sailed before the Zags loss

As soon as we lost to San Diego it became "Well, if we win out..."

BYU is on NIT bubble watch - 5 or 6 seed, very much lower and autobids kick in

TomPetty

2/8/17 9:33am

Exactly. Everyone here is assuming the NIT is a sure thing. The reality is

2/8/17 10:08am

CBI bound indeed!

Archaea

It's been this way for almost 3 weeks. Nothing new.

2/8/17 9:40am

In other late breaking news, the Titanic has sunk!

Real Men Wear Blue

2/8/17 10:13am

Nor should BYU be on the bubble. It does not have a Tourney resume.

Archaea

2/8/17 10:38am

If we run the table and get to WCC championship, we'll get in

2/8/17 11:21am

or CBI

Archaea

2/8/17 11:29am

And you were surprised by this??
