Because they had pretty good recruiting year AND because ALL of the sophs they had.....got better, bigger and faster.....And I think the 'Cuse could do BETTER in the tournament because VERY FEW play a zone and NO ONE plays a zone like the 'Cuse.

Losing Devenpunk was addition by subtraction. They've gotten much bigger at the top of the 2/3 zone, making it one of the best editions of it that I've seen.

Conferance RPI averages scores top teams
Big East top 8 teams -20
Big 12 top 8 teams -16
Big 10 top 5 teams -32
ACC top 5 teams -28
SEC top 5 teams -49
Not so sure the Big 12 conference is down.
The Big East has great rating on top 5 teams then falls off. The other 3, I stopped at 5 teams or their average scores would have been much lower.

The Big East has great rating on top 5 teams then falls off. The other 3, I stopped at 5 teams or their average scores would have been much lower.The ACC will get seven teams. If you picked today, the Big East would get eight, with Cincinnatti in and Connecticutt out, but over the last four or five games of the season, the roughly sixth through twelfth place teams play mostly each other or top ten teams, so I predict that Cincinnatti will drop out and Connecticutt will get in.
And we still have the tournaments. I think it is still too early to really determine who is in and who is not.
I think we're close. Essentially, I would put us as a 12 seed right now. we have as many as 7 games left. Each win bumps a seed. Each loss loses 2.
I mean seriously. Haven't we seen a couple of 14-16 and 12-18 teams in the tournament? ANY conference that has a tournament, just about ALL those teams STILL have a shot....sort of. The lower tier just have to win their tournament. It's not like it has not been done before.
George Mason beat UConn to get to the final four a few years ago...Mason was the 11 seed, UConn the 1 seed I think.
