This is the same year in and year out. Beat the bad CAA and crappy local teams. Split with likewise CAA teams and get smoked by the good ones.

It wasn’t the same last year when we were one of the bad teams.

We went 3-4 against the bottom 3 teams, our-self excluded on a 6-12 campaign.

Against the top 3 Teams (excluding us when we finished top 3)

20: 2-3 so far

19: 1-5

18: 1-5

17: 1-4

16: 1-3

15: 0-6

15: 3-2 F the last loss

We’re 2-6 this year, going into these last 2 games, vs the other top 6 teams. TU2012’s statistical breakdown as to our record vs top 3 conference teams since 2014 is sobering (11W vs 31L). Objectively speaking, it’s hard to imagine we’re going to win 3 in a row in the conference tournament. Of course, you can’t win 3 in a row unless you win the 1st one, so I’ll see where we are after the 1st game of the tournament.

Its amazing to me that since the 08-09 season, the lowest seeded team to make the conference final is a #4 seed. Law of averages being what it is, that’s got to give, eventually

1 Seed has a big advantage now with just 10 teams.  8-9 game starts at 4 not 12. Add in an hour daylight savings. You have less than 15 hours after your game ends, to rest, recover and get ready for the next game. A 1 seed is essential a double bye as no 1 has lost to an 8-9 seed.
