March 16, 200818 yr If they win tomorrow, UK will be able to add a Top 100 win to their resume....a double edged sword if you would. MSU dropped to 43. Arkansas is up to 25....if they lose they'll plummet as well.

March 16, 200818 yr Well Lunardi finally updated the Bracket Math segment (http://insider.espn.go.com/espn/blog/index?entryID=3294842&name=ncbexperts if you're an Insider), and even before the Georgia win he still has UK in as a lock and not even in the last 6 in. I know he's not committee, but seriously, the guy is not wrong often. This boosts my confidence.

I know he's not committee, but seriously, the guy is not wrong often. This boosts my confidence. I have felt really good about things after I heard him talk today. He is pretty good at this stuff and he says there's not even anything to worry about. I have to go with him.
March 16, 200818 yr After I looked through all of the Conferences I came up with 72 teams that had a legitimate chance of getting in with UK being one of those. The teams I have that are sweatin' it are Va Tech, UMASS, 1 of the 3 Baylor/Oklahoma/Arizona St., Villanova, Ohio St., VCU, UAB/Houston, Illinois St., Brigham Young, New Mexico, Arizona St./Oregon, Arkansas/UK (especially if UGA wins), Ole Miss. There will be alot of teams sweatin' tomorrow.
March 16, 200818 yr On the RPI, it will probably go up a few points tomorrow if UNC wins and I guess the Arkansas/UGA will help us either way. It would probably help UK's RPI even more if UGA wins because we beat them twice already.
March 16, 200818 yr Lunardi interview on ESPN right now. His interview was consistent with that article. He said there were 6 spots open and that Georgia or Illinois could take one or two of those. Kentucky is not one of those last 6, he has them in as a lock.

March 16, 200818 yr In 2006, Lunardi correctly picked 32 of the 34 at large teams, correctly picked the seed 44% of the time, and missed the seed by one either way in 75% of his picks. Last year, he again picked 32 of 34 at large teams, correctly picked the seed 29% of the time, and got the seed right within one either way 76% of the time. 32 of 34 the past two years. Who will be his two this year?

It would probably help UK's RPI even more if UGA wins because we beat them twice already. Those numbers aren't going to be an issue at 5:30 tomorrow. No time for that...
