Thought I read this doesn't kick in for a year but it'd be foolish to not think it will be used to some extent. Gives the committee another metric to use on a selective basis.

I'm allowing myself to think about the possibilities of a 5th straight appearance. I just hope that the loss to a far inferior UMass team (despite our injuries) doesn't sway the jury. Looked at the St. Louis/UMass result of yesterday and saw that the Billikens (a team we killed) journeyed to the Mullins Center and beat UMass by 19, holding them to 47 points.
We're playing well now, but boy is that a blemish on our schedule.
PIZZA, SODA, GRINDERS!!!

On the flip side, a KC circus shot saved us from a home loss to Belmont.

Sadly after being benched in the prior game, Desi Rodriguez played yesterday in SHU's loss and I heard got 19. I was hoping they would implode amid back-biting but it looks like that ain't happening. I know it's unhealthy and unwise to despise the 9 other teams in the Big East, but I can't help it...I want to win every single Wow game

even with that hiss poor performance at umass and the Marquette we could be in a worse spot....pretty lucky to have won all of the brown, rider, Belmont trio the way we played...plus Wash and BC have thankfully stepped up.
Find a way to get one of the next 3 and we will have set ourselves up quite nicely. I'd be fine if he rested White til SHU.

Exactly the way I feel

realtimerpi.com/college_Men_basketball_rpi.htmlKeep it going Friars ...gotta get one on the road or dare I say two. And then we come home and begin peaking until the BET well that's my plan anyway ps Rams are at #10 with just 3 losses and no bigtime wins except over us maybe? I would think as they go undefeated the rest of the way against just awful A10 competition that they will lose some ground...but a high seed is already assured and unless they mess-up in the A10 Tourney, name another team in that conference that will Dance?

DEX You picked crieghton to beat friars Hope you cheer for the friars here on out Joe, Joe, Joe ... Pick-em isn't about rooting for your team. We're all rooting for the Friars and dex is one of the biggest Friar fans. But Pick-em is about trying to win a contest. Creighton is a most worthy opponent and there's no foul in thinking they might have prevailed. Remember, I think we opened at a 1 point dog. #dexthekingofalternativefacts might be guilty of other offences, but his "fan" status should never be questioned! PIZZA, SODA, GRINDERS!!!
