I'm hopeful to button this up before the Washington (Q2) game Wednesday, but I believe a 9-11 B1G record gets us dancing...

Currently
* 14-8 (4-7 B1G)
* 4-6 v Q1
* 2-1 v Q2
* 2-1 v Q3 (Rutgers dropped to Q3)
* 6-0 v Q4

Remaining
6 v Q1 (3 home, 3 away)
2 v Q2 (1 home, 1 away)
1 v Q3 (home)

Even if we go 3-0 against the Q2's & Q3, that gets us to 7 conference wins. Or, 2-1 and we're at 6 conference wins...

...which means 2 or 3 more Q1 wins guaranteed tp get us to 9 total (6-10 or 7-9 v Q1).

Currently
#16 non-conference RPI
#31 overall RPI
#79 non-conference SOS
#17 overall SOS

The above RPI/SOS is way better than a season ago. As would our Q1 record, which includes 2 road wins that we didn't have last season.

Our overall RPI & SOS shouldn't change much either way by the time the regular season ends.

I agree and I think that if we lose a couple we shouldn’t but beat Michigan and/or Maryland at PBA (very possible), an 8-10 B1G record gets us in the bubble, especially if we get a conference tournament win.

Yes. 23 days is a long time and @Jim14510 is getting a bit arrogant without Baron to put him in his place
