Not criticizing your post in any way, but I don't understand this. They win tonight I understand. But we're going improve a lot by playing a tough conference schedule and somehow make the tournament? Yet they will beat us, are deeper and have better fundamentals win 22 games in a weak conference and make the NIT.
To me that makes no sense. If they're the deeper team with better fundamentals in a weaker conference and beat us, I'd see them making the tournament and us on the outside looking in. If what you say is true, I see us struggling in conference play and although we'll be improving I don't see that translating into wins.
Like I said, not trying to flame, just don't know if I'm missing something because this doesn't make sense to me.
You're right, the logic is very hard to understand.
I think both teams are on the bubble, but ISU makes it in because they have more wins, period, whereas UI has a chance to put together a better resume just based on the amount of opportunities they'll have to add ranked wins but might not have the volume to get in.
