Miami will put Reneau in cavs tax bracket next year

The point is that IU has not locked up a spot in the tourney and likely needs to win two more games to make it.

1 more will most likely do it

The Purdue win was nice, but beating PSU at home and winning @ Washington isnt anything to brag about. If they can win @ Oregon, then I'll be right there with you.

This site is still showing the PSU win as one of our 4 Quad 1 wins:

And, the NCAA site still credits us with 4 Quad 1 wins (without specifically mentioning PSU):

Losing all the home games is what put us in the predicament. Consecutive losses at home to Illinois (Ass pounding), Maryland, Michigan, and UCLA is what has us here. These combined with the early losses on the road at Iowa and Nebraska and well, here we are. Again. All that said, I do believe a win at Oregon and closing it out with a win vs OSU has us in the play in round if not a 10 or 11 seed safely in the tourney and not having to do a play in game. Get to the weekend of the B1G tourney and we may get in as a 7/10. Worst draw, assuming this hypothetical plays out, is an 8 or 9 seed. The best thing this team can do is just keep winning. This Oregon game is a big one.

And, a Quad 1 win includes a win over a 50th-ranked team at a neutral site:

I count 9 Big Ten teams ranked in the NET top 50, so maybe we can also improve our status with a win over one of them in the Big Ten Tournament (neutral site).

We got destroyed by Iowa, and now Fran is whining because Iowa may not even qualify to get into the Big Ten tournament!!

Whatever happens, we did it to ourselves.

You linked to last season.

You linked to last season.

You're right, but I knew the rule remains the same:

What does a Quad 1, 2, 3 or 4 win mean in college basketball?

Confused about what pundits are talking about when a college basketball team's Quad 1 wins?

I can tell you there is no one on this forum that isn’t ok with IU winning. With Woodson leaving after this season, that weird little fear that I would get with IU playing like it has lately isn’t there. That fear that Woodson would get himself another year…and we’d have yet another year of inconsistent play and constantly wondering if we’re going to even make the tournament.

It’d be one thing if we were following a pattern of gelling late, barely getting into the tournament but then actually doing something. Instead we stand on our heads the last few weeks of the season, get in on the bubble, then immediately lose to a St. Marys
