As weak as this thing is, you have to think that winning 2 games to get to 8-3 in our last 11 puts us in the very back of the field. Win three games (which should get us to 6 quad 1 wins and 12ish quad 1 + 2 wins is enough to lock the door.

Again, this is very basic stuff. Our record in our last 10 or 11 games is irrelevant. Our jersey color will be discussed as much by the committee. If you are under the impression two wins is enough to get us in the field, I hope you are prepared to be disappointed. Especially since one of those would come against an awful team.

We already have comparable resumes to the teams at the back / on the bubble...win two while those other teams go down to bad teams in round 1, and we will take a step up. 2 wins puts us on the first four out line, no question. Depending on who loses, it slides us into the back of the field. three wins locks us in the field.

Bubble team Virginia Tech currently losing to wake Forrest at half.

Maybe squeezing in with 2 wins, Moser will get another FF appearance as an 11 seed lol. One can hope. Assuming we don’t beat SC and lose on a late collapse to A&M.

It would be nice if wake knocked them off. Especially since OU beat wake

Baylor lost to asu. They were behind ou in pecking order but at least they were out to bed.

Wake Forest beats VA Tech

lol at Baylor. Always good to see them go down. It’s harder to win when everyone else can pay players now. Baylor’s previous advantage is gone and they’re fading away.

I think wcc gets 3 with zags, st Mary’s, Santa Clara.

That was locked before tonight. Once Santa Clara avoided an upset in their first round game, they were in.

OU net is 52 now. It was 55 after the texas win. Wake and osu wins yesterday must have boosted the net a bit for us. Va tech I think moved down below ou after their loss to wake, too.

March Madness bubble live updates: How does Santa Clara loss change bracket?

College basketball conference tournaments will be the final opportunity for teams to prove they belong in March Madness. Who is taking their chance?

Oklahoma​

• Record: 17-14 (7-11)
• NET Ranking: 54
• Quad 1 record: 3-9
• Projected seed: Next out
• Quality wins: at Vanderbilt
• Bad losses: vs. Arizona State (neutral), at Mississippi State, at South Carolina

Stanford's loss opens the door for another team to join the first four out, and that honor goes to Oklahoma. While the Sooners don't have a great resume, they've been winning, and that's something not many bubble teams can say. With four straight wins, Oklahoma has to extend it to at least six to move up the conversation.

Next game: vs. South Carolina (Wednesday, SEC tournament first round)

It would be crazy if we ended up first out for the third time in 4 years. You couldn't accomplish that if you tried. Just crazy. But, it is shaping up that way with one or two SEC tournament wins. Maybe even with two win, the fact that we wil have beaten every team but the SEC locks will help along with our record over the last 10. That used to matter, but it is my understanding that it doesn't now.

In any event, good luck to the kids and coaches. Just keep playing defense and there is a very real chance to make a run.

 

[SunshinePumper]

Only giving us Vandy as a good win is misleading. If beating other 7-9 seeds are good for the other teams listed then we have more with UGA and at Texas.

We are in 1 bracket on Bracket Matrix LOL

look I want OU to win and go on a run ..... BUT.................

i fully understand the POV that if a loss gets him fired let them lose .. i think that is a very valid thing ..



the gutless Joe C should have fired him over a month ago .. and then we could be 100% together in cheering for him
