If we snatch ND and Louisville would that be enough to get us to the NIT?
No, it's NCAA or nothing.
2 wins gets you to 16-18, that will not help at all.

I definitely don't agree with that at all, it is sort of top heavy... but weak?!?! Idk about that.
You're right, gotta divvy it up. Top 3 could be best ever if they all get 1 Seeds. next 6 could be average but i think its slightly better. the bottom 6 probably are weaker than usual. I don't think our team could get 10th in an average year (but kudos to them just cuz they got there) cjp could get his first acct win, beyond that is unlikely.3 possible/probable #1 seeds in the tourney is about as top heavy as it gets. Still getting 8 and maybe even 9 teams in. Not the best year ever but not sure it is "weak"
ND opened a 2 point favorite. Currently it is 1.5.
I thought this would end up a pick 'em but I doubt there is enough action to move it that far.

GT is 14th in the country in opponent's effective FG%. ND is 326th in effective FG%.
If GT can rebound on the defensive end fairly well GT should win. It is a pretty big if with the zone.
I think what gets GT in trouble with defensive rebounding is when teams move the ball quickly around the perimeter and get the zone scrambling to cover the corners. I don't know if ND can do that. They don't shoot well so GT shouldn't have to scramble madly to cover 3s.
Saw where CJP said that two ACC wins would get us onto the NIT bubble with a high seed.
He felt three wins would make us a lock for the NIT.
I’m not sure that’s accurate. Loyola, Radford, Belmont, SD ST already secure in the NIT. The SoCon might get 3 in.
Don’t you need a .500 record to qualify for the NIT?
Notre Dame just lost to Pitt and only scored 53 points
We have won two in a row and looked...decent...doing so.
GT is favored
Notre Dane looks like they have given up
Obviously Notre Dame wins.
they should get back to only taking top 8 seeds. i know there are logistical challenges that are probably insane but the tournament is a shell of itself and the current approach doesn't work.I miss having the tournament Fri-Sun. That was perfect.
These Tues afternoon games are crap.
I miss the true round robin. Makes it so easy for the top seeds.I miss having the tournament Fri-Sun. That was perfect.
