The bubble was pretty good for UofL yesterday. If these teams all lose today then the bubble will be real good.

It won't matter what those teams do today if UofL beats Virginia. I think that would be enough to make it in the NCAA tourney no matter what the other teams do. Virginia will be a #1 seed in the NCAA tourney no matter what they do in the ACC tourney. The Cards were so close to beating them the last time they played. Hopefully they can finish them off today.

Go CARDS!!!

No doubt. We win today and we are a lock
 
And rounding out the four Baylor lost as well. Today we are looking for Bama to lose.
Bama won, and now Lunardi has the Cards playing Bama in the 11 seed play in game.

EDIT: Now he has the Cards playing Middle Tennessee in the 11 seed play in game.
 
Yes, bracketology, bracket matrix and real-time RPI all are showing the Cards in now. There’s not much more shifting that can be done, where a bid is stolen or a competitive bubble team just a notch below goes off.

I’d say it’s 70-30 in as of now, but ultimately the dudes in the room can just pick whomever they want and craft a narrative to support it, so that part is still shaky.

Bama losing today would put us at the #1 or 2 last four in according to Lunardi. We’re #3 right now.

Im startin to feel more comfortable bc like you said, most of the teams left already have bids. Very few bubble teams still alive.

Want Bama to lose and then make sure there aren’t any bid stealers in AAC. I think GA is only bid stealer left in SEC tourney.

The narrative would be that we haven't beat anybody of any substance.And they'd be right. With the way things have been going lately, I'm very pessimistic on anybody doing us any kind of favors.We seem to have become the team that everybody loves to hate due to all the horseshit we have gone through. In all seriousness, I see a scenario where a ND takes our bid (regardless of record or head to head) based on the committee thinking most of NDs losses were due to Wells being out and now he's back. Some kind of BS that they HAVE used in the past to justify their decision. But make no mistake about it, when it comes down to a decision making vote, we'll not get the benefit of the doubt due to who we are.

I don't know. They may decide a young man like DP deserves a break taking the bullet this season. Perhaps, just perhaps, anything more than we have gone through would seem like piling on.
