Reviving 7 votes in the AP  top 25  the AP has us 4 spots out of the top 25

Nevada also receiving votes in the coaches top 25

At large chance for Nevada looking better by the day if the season ended today we would be in

Let's go four corners and stall till selection Sunday

Just because the rest of the conference sucks , do not affiliate us with MWC tournament or bust

 

This has everything to do with your resume and the conference standing. It's been said over and over again so I'm not gonna repeat it.

i just don't see a team winning out in this league. Especially with little to no depth.

After the Carter years, we're happy to just have a dream to hold on to. 

Dreams are nice. Realistic dream is phantom MWC championship with a #1 seed in MWCT so you improve your chances on winning the only bid this conference gets.

It's still early enough to have a small amount of hope for a two bid league and another two in the NIT.  

I know it's not likely to come to fruition, but it's better to be an optimist than a defeatist in January when you're sitting  at 15-3 and don't have any "sure loss" games remaining.  

If we continue to play well and lose in the tourney final, we would at least be a bubble team.

The resumes just aren't there nor is the depth IMO to run the table for Reno.

In the MWC this year there are no sure loss or sure wins. Reno is dogs at their best 2 games remaining tho. At SDSU and at BSU. The only A games on your schedule besides @ St Mary

No way will we run the table. But if we win all of our home games, & only drop a couple on the road we have a chance for an at large so long as we do well in the tournament.  

We have 13 regular season games remaining plus the tourney.  We have an opportunity to build a post season resume'.  

As nentioned earlier, it's nice to have some reason for optimism and not have to hang our hopes on the conf championship game

I just don't think its possible. Even with a couple losses.

SDSU had a much better OOC SOS, was ranked #47 Kenpom. Had a top 30 win and multiple close games against top 50. Ran the MWC with only 2 losses and lost in MWCT championship.

Went to NIT.

2 more losses and a loss in the MWCT is 6 total losses. The MWC has zero credibility right now. It will be near impossible to take Reno over a bubble P5 team who plays top 50 matches night in and night out when Reno will only play 1 all season and get blown out in that game.

 

 


There are 36 at large bids in the NCAA tournament.

 

Reno is ranked a MWC best #66 overall right now.

 

Big East has 7 Top 60 teams. (6 at larges possible)

Big Ten has 9 top 60 teams. (8 at larges possible)

Big 12 has 8 top 35 teams. (bottom 2 teams are still in top 75)  (7 at larges are a lock.)

Pac 12 has 6 top 60 teams (5 at larges a lock)

WCC has 3 top 70 teams (1 at large lock, BYU #67 is bubble)

SEC has 9 top 70 teams. (8 at large bids possible)

ACC has 13 top 75 teams.(12 at large bids possible)

A10 has 3 top 55 teams. (2 at large possible)

AAC has 3 top top 40 teams. (2 at large possible)

 

52 at large bid quality teams right here.

 

25 of them are probably locks because they are in the top 35.

Reno will be battling the other 27 teams that are in the top 70 for an at large. Except these guys play top 50 teams twice a week and Reno has played one all year.

 

 

Winning out might make the NCAA committee throw you a bone. MWCT is still the best bet for anyone.

You're saying that if we finish 30-4, we have no shot at an at large? That's nuts-o.

Where did I type that?

I don't see why you would think youll run the table until the MWCT championship game? You don't have the depth and your starters play 35-40 mins a game lately.

The MWC is always a grind. That will wear on you. Especially at a game like @BSU when it will be your 3rd game in less than 7 days.

We're only 5 games in and youre a couple banked 3's and terrible UNM coaching away from 2 losses.

Keep winning till they visit SDSU on Feb 12th...that way we can knock you off and boost our RPI....I think it's good for SDSU to be the hunters....
