Kenpom -- If Only

They now have us losing only three more games.

1 point at Georgetown
1 point at home against Xavier
2 points at Butler

Too good to be true but we can dream.

That's a bit far fetched. How do they come up with that , Dan?

 

[Halldan1]

As with all sites like that the info is computer generated. Of course the game isn't played on paper so yeah that does seem far fetched but still fun to read.

Realistically you want to win every game you play but with the next three at home 2-1 would be a good result for this team.

Was watching ESPN last night. And they listed Marquette as a "bad loss" for some team. Forget who.

We need to beat Marquette and imo GTown (to ensure the split)

Pat, as a loss?

Huh?

Huh?

When I first read your post it didn't appear in its entirety. Just part of the first sentence. That's why I was confused.

Weird. Lol.

I'd love to take all 3... 2 is much more realistic.

Now at second thought. Could Butler be seen as a "bad loss" or did they do enough OOC to prevent that title?

 

[Halldan1]

Pat, they're playing without their point guard who is very important for them. He should be back soon lengthening their rotation . That will really help Butler.

That bad loss, good win concept is not exactly an exact science. I saw one show that had Georgia as a good win for us. Isn't it too early to determine good wins and bad loses. It is still January.
