Great, albeit long, read for those interested in tournament math from a well-respected blog that covers Cleveland sports better than the local papers do these days.  http://www.waitingfornextyear.com/2013/03/the-diff-ncaa-t.../   Back to Top Ted Thompson Administrator Member Since: 11/11/2004 Location: MAC Play Post Count: 7,723 Status: Offline     RE: Can The Zips Get An At-Large?    Posted: 3/6/2013 1:49:02 PM  Dance Card says 5%. http://www.unf.edu/~jcoleman/dance.htm Rank Team (@=automatic bid) Dance Card Chance of Bid RPI Rank 1 Duke 11.9572 100.00% 1 2 Indiana 10.8424 100.00% 6 3 New Mexico 10.7227 100.00% 2 4 Kansas 10.5386 100.00% 4 5 Louisville 9.8612 100.00% 5           6 Gonzaga 9.4515 100.00% 7 7 Georgetown 9.1436 100.00% 8 8 Michigan 9.1121 100.00% 12 9 Miami FL 8.4494 100.00% 3 10 Michigan St. 8.4150 100.00% 9           11 Ohio St. 8.0090 100.00% 16 12 Marquette 7.4681 100.00% 13 13 Wisconsin 6.8952 100.00% 31 14 Florida 6.3033 100.00% 10 15 Kansas St. 5.8606 100.00% 19           16 Oklahoma St. 5.1320 100.00% 24 17 Pittsburgh 5.1007 100.00% 29 18 Nevada Las Vegas 5.0743 100.00% 18 19 Syracuse 5.0564 100.00% 11 20 UCLA 5.0238 100.00% 20           21 St. Louis 4.9838 100.00% 21 22 Minnesota 4.9708 100.00% 14 23 Arizona 4.8970 100.00% 17 24 Notre Dame 4.1519 100.00% 39 25 Memphis 4.0573 100.00% 15           26 San Diego St. 4.0102 100.00% 34 27 California 3.7166 99.99% 43 28 North Carolina St. 3.6371 99.99% 27 29 Creighton 3.5875 99.98% 38 30 Butler 3.5045 99.98% 28           31 North Carolina 3.4963 99.98% 23 32 Illinois 3.4819 99.98% 30 34 Colorado St. 3.4555 99.97% 22 35 Virginia Commonwealth 3.3904 99.97% 25 36 Oklahoma 2.8410 99.78% 26           37 Middle Tennessee 2.4761 99.34% 33 38 Oregon 2.3533 99.07% 45 39 Missouri 2.2113 98.65% 37 40 Colorado 2.0360 97.91% 35 41 Cincinnati 1.5024 93.35% 42           42 St. Mary's 1.4068 92.03% 40 43 Villanova 1.1500 87.49% 55 44 La Salle 0.7188 76.39% 46 45 Virginia 0.6660 74.73% 65 46 Belmont 0.6504 74.23% 36           47 Temple 0.5944 72.39% 41 48 Wichita St. 0.3356 63.14% 44 49 Boise St. 0.2700 60.64% 48 50 Kentucky -0.1179 45.31% 47 51 Louisiana Tech -0.3382 36.76% 49           52 Tennessee -1.1591 12.32% 54 *** THE BUBBLE BURSTS HERE *** 53 Iowa St. -1.1813 11.87% 53 54 Iowa -1.4241 7.72% 71 55 Mississippi -1.5107 6.54% 59 56 Akron -1.6284 5.17% 50           57 Providence -1.6873 4.58% 62 58 Maryland -1.7939 3.64% 61 59 Southern Mississippi -2.0255 2.14% 51 60 Massachusetts -2.1168 1.71% 52 61 Baylor -2.2447 1.24% 60           62 Washington -2.3730 0.88% 69 63 Stanford -2.5500 0.54% 58 64 Alabama -2.5603 0.52% 66 65 Arizona St. -2.6152 0.45% 77 66 Xavier -2.7495 0.30% 83           67 Valparaiso -2.8749 0.20% 73 68 Brigham Young -2.8928 0.19% 57 69 Northern Iowa -2.9613 0.15% 67 70 Southern California -3.0603 0.11% 70 71 Denver -3.2483 0.06% 82           72 Arkansas -3.6425 0.01% 68 73 St. John's -3.7520 0.01% 63 74 Bucknell -3.8464 0.01% 56 75 Air Force -4.6002 0.00% 90 76 Saint Joseph's -4.6833 0.00% 86           77 Ohio -5.0543 0.00% 75 Follow Ohio Football recruiting on the BobcatAttack.com football recruiting database.

A similar team to look at would be Iona from last year. They lost in the MAAC semis and still made it in despite most people thinking they didn't have a chance. At the very least they should be a team mentioned as "on the bubble"  Back to Top Mark Lembright '85 General User Member Since: 8/22/2010 Location: Highland Heights, OH Post Count: 2,460 Status: Offline     RE: Can The Zips Get An At-Large?    Posted: 3/6/2013 2:15:48 PM  Can they?  Yes Will they?  No, the MAC will be a one bid conference this year.
