How many will the AAC get?

Postby LA_Mustang » Wed Feb 03, 2016 4:40 pm

Right now it looks like two according to Lunardi, both terrible seeds...

AAC:
#9 UConn
#10 Cincy

OOC opponents
#7 Michigan
#8 Colorado
#10 Zags
#13 Yale
#16 Hampton

CBS has Tulsa as one of the first four out...

2-3 bids tops, depending on how the season plays out but I expect to have 5-6 teams playing in the post season. Just like our season 2 years ago, would not mind having an AAC team reach MSG to compete for the NIT title. I don't expect anyone to advance beyond maybe a 1st round win in the NCAA Tourney

They are 17-6, 7-3 in the BIG 10 with no bad losses and a win over #3 Maryland.

In Lunardi's new bracket he has Temple in and Cincy out.

I figure UConn, Cincy, Temple and maybe even Tulsa as teams that could get hit and win the tourney and auto-bid. For at-large, Cincy and UConn might have a chance but they need to win their games against us to increase their chances. We win out and AAC might be a one bid league. Need everyone to win more non-conference games against "quality" opponents to earn respect

I just can't believe there's a real chance the AAC will be a one bid league!
