Pool C

[Titan Q]

I'm a homer here, but Middlebury below MIT and Brandeis doesn't correspond with regional rankings. Having easily dispatched Wesleyan in the NESCAC quarters, Midd advances to play Williams in the semis. A loss to the Ephs (or Amherst in the finals) would not drop Midd below either MIT or Brandeis in the regional rankings. So, I guess you can project how "you see it," but this doesn't match with how the members of the committee—you know, the guys who pick the field—see it.

That's a fair point about the regional rankings.  When I did this, I projected that MIT would move ahead of Middlebury in the next NE ranking.  Since the last ranking, MIT picked up the huge win over WPI...and Middlebury lost (albeit to Amherst in 3OT).  I think the numbers now suggest MIT over Middlebury in the regional ranking.

I do think Brandeis should remain the third of those three.  I reconfigured the order above to go: MIT, Middlebury, Brandeis.

This has sort of evolved as the day has gone on.  A rough look at how I see Pool C heading into Saturday's games.  Notes about data:

* In-region records are through Friday 2/15. 
* SOS is from the regional ranking week two data sheets, through 2/10
* Results vs regionally ranked are through Friday 2/15

Howard Payne 75, at UMHB 73

Thursday night in Belton.  This was the biggest upset in the ASC, (IMHO). UMHB had a road loss at ETBU during the early season cross-over schedule. That is not unusual.  The CRU did not defend home court in the last week of the season and contending for the #1 seed in the Region.

This morning at 11:00am Eastern, Wash U plays @ Brandeis.  I have both in right now, but today's loser definitely moves closer to the bubble (especially if it's Brandeis).

I consider the first 12-13 teams on my Pool C list "safe" at this point, but the teams lower than that are at the mercy of conference tournament upsets...and we know there will be a good number of these.

Was Ithaca newly ranked? They don't show games against teams that appear in that week's rankings because they're generated before the RAC calls.

[Titan Q]

Scranton is 3(Catholic,Cabrini, Ithaca)-1 against regionally-ranked teams

Good catch.  The NCAA data sheet (games through 2/10) had that one wrong...

http://web1.ncaa.org/champsel_new/exec/pdf/staticpdfrank?doWhat=publicrankings&sportCode=MBB&region=15&division=3

Was Ithaca newly ranked? They don't show games against teams that appear in that week's rankings because they're generated before the RAC calls.

Good call...Ithaca jumped into the Week 2 East ranking but was not in the first.

[Titan Q]

Hampden-Sydney's record against regionally ranked opponents would be 3-1, unless you are including the loss to Guilford .... ?

The last data sheet had H-S 3-1 vs regionally ranked, and then I added the Va Wesleyan loss mid-week and Randolph as a win (entered South ranking).

I have 4-2...

Wins - Lynchburg, Randolph, Guilford, Lynchburg
Losses - Guilford, Va Wesleyan


I should have clarified above that I tried to update the results vs regionally ranked through Friday 2/15.

I have...

Wins - Wesley, Guilford, Randolph
Loss - Guilford, Va Wesleyan

I tried my best to update the results vs regionally ranked when I put my Pool C projections together...I added the loss to Va Wesleyan from mid-week (which was not accounted for in the most recent regional ranking).

Isn't it based upon a team's record against others that are currently regionally ranked?  If so, then:

Wins - Wesley, Randolph, Randolph
Loss - Va Wesleyan

As you'll hear posters frequently refer to this rule, "once ranked, always ranked."

Middlebury will also pick up their first regional win as a result of Plattsburgh entering the East rankings.  They will be 1-2 next week.  I wonder if that helps them remain in the Top 4 in the NE region.
