Lunardi just said during the UVA-UL game that he's dropped Miami to a 3-seed. No complaints here. We can make up for it in the ACC Tourney though.

Sorry, complaint here. He doesn't drop other teams when they lose, but we get dropped. That's bs. We win 3 straight against UVA (top 5 team), UL (top 12 team) and ND on the road in a blowout (top 25 team) and we don't move up, but we lose one road game to the hottest team in the ACC and we drop. Got it.

Lunardi is a joke. Good thing he's not on the selection committee. Wannabe.

Looks like we may have to beat fsu and UVA to make the ACC championship.

We need to win two games in the ACC to get a Two seed.

I'd say winning one puts in good shape

I disagree. Another loss to UVA would be a very bad look.

Some people have us as a low 3 right now, we need a big win.

Yup but i want to win the tourney now win two games. Sorry I'm greedy

 

[JZCane]

Don't see how you drop us to a four unless we lose in the quarters

 

[JgDaCane]

were gonna win the acc tourney, no worries.

 

[JZCane]

Lunardi still has us on the 2 line

edit: well he did anyways

Do not want to be in the same bracket as Michigan St. Tom Izzo always has his teams bloodthirsty by March.

Don't think we get past the Sweet 16 in that bracket. MSU would waltz right through on there side

That, and Chattanooga is a tough 14 seed...I follow the SoCon because I live about an hour away from ETSU (big traditional mid-major rivalry there). Chattanooga had a 29-5 season, goes about 9 deep, and has a bunch of guys that can shoot from deep (and our achilles all year has been guarding the 3), and an athletic long-armed big in SoCon POY Justin Tuoyo (6'10/235). Their go-to scorer is Tre McClain, and he reminds me a lot of younger Sheldon McClellan. They hit their free throws and play really good D.

I'm not scared of those guys and think the Canes can definitely win, however, they're not an "easy out" like some other low seeds in the tourney would likely be. The SoCon is a really good basketball conference, and any team that wins that league, you need to watch out for. Even if Chattanooga doesn't end up being the Canes' first-round matchup, keep an eye on them.

Chattanooga is going to be a 12 or 13. Especially with Monmouth and Valpo being eliminated in their conference tourneys. The auto bids in those conferences will be below Chattanooga.

If we get back to a 2 seed, maybe we'll get a revenge game (revenge for last season) against Green Bay. Green Bay will have to beat Wright State tonight though.

 

[Notsince1985]

I live in Chattanooga. They're not going to be a 14 seed.
