Tournament Chances Thread

[ucswais]

Winning at UL and then turning around and losing at home to USF is pretty much a wash. What BE tournament bracket have you been looking at? We are going to finish somewhere in the 7-10 range, so the only likely first round opponents are Nova, St. John's, or Providence. If they beat UL, but lose to UConn, USF, and say Providence they are not getting in. It's going to take 21 wins and really that shouldn't be that difficult for a tournament worthy team.

Yep, we'll be in the 7/10 or 8/9 games...

tues 11 vs 14, 12 vs 13
weds 5 vs 12/13, 6 vs 11/14, 7 vs 10, 8 vs 9
thurs 4 vs 5/12/13 3 vs 6/11/14 2 vs 7/10 1 vs 8/9
fri semis
sat final

Mbodj is a pretty good defender and I think he will hold his own against Dieng. Smith and Siva are so much better than our guards it's not funny. Hopefully they just have a bad shooting night.

Did Chane Behanan die? Chane Behanan vs Justin Jackson/Titus Rubles = Bloodbath

If those are anything like the McDAA game jerseys, then they will be god awful.

Adidas is foolish for putting Represent the C on the jerseys.

I don't think that's part of the jersey, is it?

It looks like its going to be a patch on the back of the jerseys on the neckline.

From ESPN Chat wrap

"Brandon (Sarasota, FL)

What does Cincy have to do over the next 3 games and and in the BE Tourney to guarantee themselves an invite in the Big Dance?
Joe Lunardi (2:04 PM)

Win two of three remaining regular-season games and avoid losing to a lower seed in the Big East tournament."

So, if this is true, our chances look.....iffy but doable.

That's to guarantee a spot. I think they could easily go 2-2 and still easily wind up as a 9-10 seed.

A couple notes on the uniforms from Tommy G:
1. The uniforms were designed during the fall, hence "rep the c"
2. UC requested no more infrared; Adidas said no

3. They are hideous.

3. They are hideous.

4. The players and recurits love them according to Tommmy G which is all that matters.

What does "rep the c" have to do with the fact the unis were designed in the fall?

What is infrared?

We still had Butch Jones who was the "rep the c" guy.

There is a long answer to infrared, but the short version is it's that neon color on last year and this year's special jerseys.

If they do love them then good for them, but they are still hideous IMO.

If they like these it would explain their inability to put the ball through the basket.... they have terrible eyesight!!!

 

[RedlegZdid]

Lol I wish I could like them, but camouflage only works on military personnel.

I'm all about new jersey designs and I think are current all black uni's are slick. I love the throwbacks from years past and I actually liked the uni's we wore in last season's NCAA's.

I love what Oregon does as well in football. But ugly is ugly, just because you're designing something different doesn't mean it's cool. Adidas whiffed on these just like UA did on the Maryland uni's. They are U G L Y. They're just uni's though and we're only going to see them for a couple of weeks so no big deal, and I'm sure it does help recruiting. Any pub is good pub.
