If we hadn't lost to UTEP, NC St., and T A&M twice, there would be no bubble discussion. There would just be a discussion about what seed we're gonna be, what region, etc., IMO.
That team played a ridiculous number of games against NCAAT teams. I want to say maybe 40% or more of their games were against tournament teams. Oakland and USC were tournament teams along with Nova, VCU, Pitt, and maybe Memphis.
