Bracketology Updates - 2021-22

[Jet915]

Just being honest- anyone who has watched Creighton play would agree that the Jays are not an NCAA tourney team at this point. Maybe we can get there as the young guys improve, but no way right now.

I think the Jays are a year away, but the crazy number of upsets make the bubble a very weak one this season. Let's see if they can win 2 out of next 4 before their BE opener.

yeah totally agree. seeing buy game losses all over the place along with other bad losses.

I think they need to split with Iowa St and BYU. Arizona St at 2-5 isn't going to help much at all.

I'm worried about tomorrow's game lol...

We need a full student section now that they’re back. The SIUE game had not 12 students

Gotta agree with this one. Providence with wins over Tech and Wisconsin. Seton Hall with wins over Cal and Michigan. Marquette with wins over West Virginia, Ole Miss and Illinois. Xavier with wins over Ohio State and Virginia Tech. The Big East has done really well and still has opportunities to improve.

I think some of it is some of the wins have been diminished by how the teams have done since... Michigan doesn't seem anywhere near as good now as they were perceived early. Illinois as well. Will be interesting to see what Bracketville says next update.

I feel like it's been a decent start to the year. Yeah Big Ten challenge was excellent, but the exempt tournaments weren't that good. Right now had 23 RPI Q1/2 games and are 11-12 in those 23 games.

Right now 5-8 in Q1 RPI games- the 5 wins are:
Auburn by UConn
Wisconsin by Providence
West Virginia by Marquette
Ohio St by Xavier
Tennessee by Villanova
(will be really interesting to see how those change come Monday when the NET gets revealed).

These next 2 weeks are extremely important. Got so many huge games left. About as many Q1/Q2 games left as had already.

Jerry palm has 6 big east teams with the hall all the way up to a 2 seed.
No sign of St. John's or Creighton but I imagine their lurking also Depaul.

Palm is one that I largely ignore- he's of all the big ones one of the worst. Much worse than Lunardi.

The guy from Bracketville will be up tomorrow.

My hunch is St John's and Creighton would be about 5-10 teams out, and DePaul would be a bit closer if they win, and about 15-20 out if they lose tonight.

Ah, Palm must have finished his college football duties. I actually like him because his brackets are always a little more out there and adventurous.
