Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
This doesn’t even make sense. Winning a conference tournament isn’t how an at large bid is earned.

XD the selection committee doesn't care about pre season rankings nor games USU did NOT win. They only care about who they beat and the strength of schedule on selection sunday.ThunderAggie wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 6:14 pmI see what you mean but by conference end, St Marys, Florida, and LSU may very well be in the top 25 as I am sure they will do good in conference.

SDSU winning the Vegas invitational pretty much solidified our at large bid. Yes, the tournament with Creighton, Texas Tech, Iowa and SDSU.
beating creighton by 30(projected top 2-3 team in their conference and they beat texas tech) winning @BYU (projected top 2 team in their conference), and beating Iowa by 10 points (projected to be a NCAA tournament team and finish top 3-4 in their conference). Add in the fact that we will most likely go unbeaten in our non conference schedule.
at this point, a 26-8 SDSU team for example is good enough to be a bubble team, but a 26-8 USU team will NOT be good enough to be a bubble team. The chances of sdsu getting 8 losses(basically we would need to lose 1/3 of our remaining games) is VERY UNLIKELY.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Strength of schedule doesn’t mean anything really anymore in and of itself. All that matters now is Q1 and Q2 wins and avoiding bad Q3 and Q4 losses of which you guys just barely escaped maybe the worst Q4 loss possible.ThunderAggie wrote:I see what you mean but by conference end, St Marys, Florida, and LSU may very well be in the top 25 as I am sure they will do good in conference.

Looking at predictive results with OOC in parentheses:
Q1 Q2
USU 5(3) 3(0)
SDSU 4(2) 4(0)
Looks pretty even from a scheduling perspective and gives USU a slight advantage.
Game have to be played though. Now we have lost one of the Q1 games and need to win the future ones but that goes without saying. SDSU has won one Q1 game already.
The committee will also consider major injury impacts to teams. SDSU win will be discounted bc they beat BYU without Childs. Our loss will be discounted bc we didn’t have either of our 2 starting centers including NBA prospect. The St. Mary’s loss will not hurt us. A future loss will hurt us more as Queta is back now. Our neutral win next Friday against BYU though will carry as much weight as your road victory against BYU bc they will be at full strength now with Childs back.
Neither team is guaranteed anything right now. I hope both teams win out the rest of the non-conference and have a great series against each other, go undefeated in conference outside of the other and meet in the championship game. I think both would get good seeding in the tournament. I also don’t think 3 teams from the MWC is out of the question this year either, especially if it’s New Mexico getting that 3rd bid.
Good luck with your trolling though!

SDSU doesn't need to win the MWC tournament to get in the ncaa tournament.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Great job you must be so proud of your team. Not sure why you are worried if the Aggies get an at large bid. Worry about what you can control which is nothing in this matter.

I am glad you know how the rest of the year is going to play. SDSU should not even play the rest of the games because your Destiny is already set. Who knows how your team will finish in conference.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
I used to know this kid who was a good athlete, but he lacked self confidence, couldn't compliment anyone, couldn't praise anyone. He felt any acknowledgement of accomplishment of others somehow made his star shine less brightly. It was too bad, it made him look weak.
SDSU, have more confidence, you have a good team.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
nope, SDSU is pretty much guaranteed. USU is not. our resume is stronger than yours. Which means a 28-6 SDSU team will get an at large over a 28-6 utah st team. One win against LSU won't matter. There are a lot of p5 schools who have plenty of top 25 or top 50 wins and they dont' get in either.scotlandog wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 6:47 pmStrength of schedule doesn’t mean anything really anymore in and of itself.

why does it hurt if i tell ppl the truth? Either run the table in conference play(or close to it) or sweep SDSU, that's really their only chances of getting an at large. why is that so difficult to understand. Beating Florida helps mitigate this criteria.
SDSU is guaranteed, they already accumulated a good enough resume for an at large. Beating the Utes in non conf or Utah st just ONCE will pretty much 100% the deal.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Yep I have to admit you are right. Just beat Utah and Utah State just once for a total of 12 wins and your dancing! Who cares if you lose all the other ones. That solid 12-17 record with wins over the powerhouse BYU, Creighton, Iowa, Utah, and Utah State will solidify an at large.SDSU wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 7:12 pmI want the MWC to be a 2 bid leagueAggie84025 wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 6:51 pmGreat job you must be so proud of your team.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Cheering for the Aztecs all year aside from our games. New Mexico looks good too. Nevada is surging. UNLV only one not pulling their weight. MWC needs to get back to at least a 3 bid league and that happens when its big 5 are good.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Haha. Nice refuting of my points. Creighton and Iowa aren’t even projected to be Q2 wins, they are looking more like Q3 wins even with the world beating Texas Tech win. So you have a single Q1 win against a team without their best player and you think you’re in already? Haha. You better sweep us and pray Iowa and Creighton make some major runs in conference. You get swept by us and you will be watching us from home come March. Haha. Good luck. You’ll need it.SDSU wrote:nope, SDSU is pretty much guaranteed. USU is not. our resume is stronger than yours.

I think both would get good seeding in the tournament. I also don’t think 3 teams from the MWC is out of the question this year either, especially if it’s New Mexico getting that 3rd bid.
Good luck with your trolling though!

beat creighton by 30, who then beat then-ranked Texas Tech
Beat Iowa by 10
Beat @BYU
none of these were home games. it was either a road game or a neutral game.

BYU is basically in. They scheduled a strong non conf. and already have three quality wins. All they gotta do is beat gonzaga/st mary's once or twice in their 5 attempts and they should get in
U aggie fans don't have clue the importance of non conference. ;it will bite you in selection sunday. Hell, any loss to a .500 conference team will hurt. if BYU beats USU, that's FOUR quality wins for BYU.

uh you should be worried.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
You seem awfully enamored (big word, I know, just Google the definition) with byu. Perhaps you guys should just leave the Mountain West and go join the WCC church ball league. After all, San Jose State nearly proved to be too big a challenge for you guys. Go beat up on Portland and San Francisco.SDSU wrote: ↑December 9th, 2019, 3:09 amuh you should be worried.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
I love how homeboy won’t acknowledge or respond to any posts talking about their “amazing win” at home against SJSU. This thread was started before that game and my man was probably sweating it big time until that three went in.
I think SDSU is playing their best basketball right now and are peaking too soon. Hardly any teams play their best ball the full year and have slumps.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Facts and logic tend to go right over the heads of trolls. Even the most blue goggled BYU fan doesn't believe that they've done enough yet to guarantee a spot in the NCAA tournament yet this guy claims that they are already in (along with SDSU). There is still a lot of season to be played and USU still has a few OOC games to bolster it's resume.frankiesaysrelax wrote: ↑December 9th, 2019, 8:45 amI love how homeboy won’t acknowledge or respond to any posts talking about their “amazing win” at home against SJSU.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
BYU's @houston, virginia tech, and UCLA are solid wins. They also have four cracks at gonzaga/st mary's and another 1 pr 2 more in their conf. Tournament. No bad losses either. They're basically guaranted at this point. Unless they go 0/6 against gonzaga/st marys. They have thd toughest non conference sched
Either way, if BYU wins, we benefit. If USU wins, it will make the mwc benefit. Honestly, i don't think usu will win. Either way, im happy with the results

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
UCLA is ranked 112 in KenPom and also has a loss to Hofstra. They have a brand name but I wouldn't say that it's a solid win. Houston @ VT are. As far as losses go, losing to Boise and Utah are definitely not "good losses" Neither will be quad 1 and there is a good chance that they aren't quad 2 either.SDSU wrote: ↑December 9th, 2019, 9:34 amBYU's @houston, virginia tech, and UCLA are solid wins.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
Do you guys actually expect this jacka$$ to know what the Quad system means? He's already shown a complete disregard for logic, let alone using the Quad system that the selection committee will use.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
I just like how he always says guaranteed and like they just win these games and its a done deal. Forget the other 15 games they play. BYU still has to play San Francisco, Santa Clara, Portland and many other conference games. I expect them to lose some of these too, just like USU and SDSU are gonna lose one or two bad games to conference foes.ProvoAggie wrote: ↑December 9th, 2019, 9:42 amUCLA is ranked 112 in KenPom and also has a loss to Hofstra.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
I'm sure all of you are taking TrollBoy's statements as the honest truth, but before you go all in on all his opinions, you might want to review this thread to see how he does on projecting returning players, point spreads, etc.

Imagine feeling so insecure that you have to search out another fan bases board, and then post about how our resume sucks and blah blah blah in order to feel better about yourself.
Good luck this season.

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
I’m certain this guy isn’t serious at all. He knows SDSU hasn’t beat anyone of consequence and he also knows that they would have to do a lot more to get into the NCAA. He’s just enjoying getting responses, not even Aztec fans are that clueless and uneducated. I am glad they are doing well against subpar teams though. That will help the conference overall. Hopefully they can take care of SDCC this week and keep the domination of terrible teams alive. Best of luck!

Re: Will be rooting for USU before we win by blow out in conference play
There's a whole lot of variables and games to be played before the NCAA committee gets together. SDSU has looked really good to start the year and they will earn your NCAA bid if they keep it up. So will USU if they can get Florida and start playing to their potential in conference.SDSU wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 7:02 pmnope, SDSU is pretty much guaranteed. USU is not. our resume is stronger than yours. Which means a 28-6 SDSU team will get an at large over a 28-6 utah st team. One win against LSU won't matter. There are a lot of p5 schools who have plenty of top 25 or top 50 wins and they dont' get in either.scotlandog wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 6:47 pmStrength of schedule doesn’t mean anything really anymore in and of itself. All that matters now is Q1 and Q2 wins and avoiding bad Q3 and Q4 losses of which you guys just barely escaped maybe the worst Q4 loss possible.ThunderAggie wrote:I see what you mean but by conference end, St Marys, Florida, and LSU may very well be in the top 25 as I am sure they will do good in conference. Iowa and Creighton will probably not be ranked any time during the season. I just mentioned preseason because you said what genius scheduled USU non conference schedule. Whoever did it was really smart as Florida was #4 and LSU was top 20 and coming off a sweet 16.SDSU wrote: ↑December 8th, 2019, 6:04 pmthunder, non conference sos only gets applied on selection sunday. Ask monmouth that when they won a couple of non conference road power conference schools (UCLA for example) yet they didn't get a bid
also, even if you Utah st had a better non conf. sos pre season, if they didn't win any meaningful games, it's as good as useless any way. Losing to st mary's and florida for example isn't good
Looking at predictive results with OOC in parentheses:
Q1 Q2
USU 5(3) 3(0)
SDSU 4(2) 4(0)
Looks pretty even from a scheduling perspective and gives USU a slight advantage.
Game have to be played though. Now we have lost one of the Q1 games and need to win the future ones but that goes without saying. SDSU has won one Q1 game already.
The committee will also consider major injury impacts to teams. SDSU win will be discounted bc they beat BYU without Childs. Our loss will be discounted bc we didn’t have either of our 2 starting centers including NBA prospect. The St. Mary’s loss will not hurt us. A future loss will hurt us more as Queta is back now. Our neutral win next Friday against BYU though will carry as much weight as your road victory against BYU bc they will be at full strength now with Childs back.
Neither team is guaranteed anything right now. I hope both teams win out the rest of the non-conference and have a great series against each other, go undefeated in conference outside of the other and meet in the championship game. I think both would get good seeding in the tournament. I also don’t think 3 teams from the MWC is out of the question this year either, especially if it’s New Mexico getting that 3rd bid.

I do think you have point though. Losses to both Florida and BYU would put the Aggies on pretty thin ice if they drop more than 2 conference games. A Florida loss and Zoobie win would still have me nervous.
But lets play the games first. At this point last year the Aggies were still considered the 11th best MW team or close to it. I think to proclaim anything is wrapped up or a done deal is a bit much with 20+ games left on the schedule..lol
