Likely need the following to happen to get that last 1 seed: 

  • Texas needs to beat BYU and win the Big 12 tournament.  Would be helpful if the opponent in the finals is Baylor (as WV/KSU are on our side of the bracket) because OU's NET is lower than Baylor's
  • UCLA loses at Arizona tomorrow and does not win the Pac-12 tournament
  • Virginia Tech fails to win the ACCT 
  • Iowa loses to Ohio State Sunday and does not win the B1G tournament.
  • USC does not win the Pac 12 tournament

We want to win the Big 12 tournament, Stanford to win the Pac 12 tournament and Ohio State to win the B1G tournament.  Anyone but VT to win the ACCT. 

Things get extremely complicated if you have:

  • Big 12 tournament winner Texas
  • B1G tournament winner Iowa (over Ohio State)
  • Pac 12 tournament winner UCLA (over Stanford)
  • ACC tournament winner Virginia Tech

Pac-12 is the #1 conference in NET.  Big 12 is #2, ACC is #4 and B1G is #5.  So the pecking order in that scenario is probably:

  • UCLA (aka, the committee rankings from last night)
  • Texas
  • Virginia Tech
  • Iowa

If the committee hand selects the one seeds, I would much rather get a neutral site win over OU than another win over Baylor even if Baylor has the better NET. Being 0-2 against OU is a resume eye sore that could look a little better if that record were 1-2

AAS calling out the scum ref that gave the B12 championship to the cheaters.

Texas basketball coach Vic Schaefer objects to referee's travel call (statesman.com)

Translation:

- Vic was on the phone to Patty Broderick, the coordinator of refs for the Big 12 and Big 10, immediately after the game

- The conference office didn't respond because they aren't in charge of the refs--Patty is. If someone calls the conference office, they'll just call Patty to take care of it because she works for the conference, not the officials.

- My guess is they all got their asses chewed out because when they got back to the locker room to see the play on 360, they saw it was incorrect.

- They *might* not ref the Big 12 tournament, but 2 of the 3 refs (including the one who made the call) ref in every league in America so they'll just make it up somewhere else

It seems the only thing better for the Big XII to do than sticking it to OU is really sticking it to Texas. We can't leave this conference fast enough.

Ehh, the conference had nothing to do with it. Refs are independent contractors and not employees of the conference. We will have Roy ref out games in the SEC. Lisa isn't in the SEC as far as I know, but more West Coast refs are starting to ref more in the east so I wouldn't be surprised to see her in the SEC as well next year.

"A Big 12 spokesperson did not respond to multiple requests from the American-Statesman for either a comment on the traveling call or a clarification from the officials on why a whistle was blown."

Can't get out of this chickenshit conference fast enough

The committee is dying to pair Texas with aggy but not sure they're making the tournament. They were #39 in NET before last night's L to Tennessee. Likely outside the top 40 now. 

They need to beat Alabama on Sunday. 

aggy down 12 at the half. Not looking like the committee will get their dream match up.

Joni was an awful hire and it’s sad that Janiah Barker is wasting her talent there. She’ll probably transfer. 

Speaking of awful hires, one has to think Krista Gerlich's time at Texas Tech will end around 7:35 p.m. Thursday.

She should be but I bet they will use the injury excuse to give her another year in their quest to land Chavez. As soon she picks somewhere else, Gerlich is out at the end of 2025 if she can’t finish top 4 in the new Big 12. That’s my guess

Tech fans seem to think garlic needs more years added to her contract in order to turn things around, so she’ll probably be there regardless. Like I said earlier, she was the savior and lady raider hero they all wanted so best of luck?

Maybe they will give us a 1 just so they can give aggy a 16 so we can play.  Probably just give them a 15 then and save the 16s for the holy shit we won the conference tourney at 13-18 type teams. 

If they lose this they will need to win 2 in the SEC tournament at minimum. Probably 3 to even make the NCAA tournament.

aggy would have to win the SEC tournament to get in the NCAAs which means they would also need to beat USCe in the process. Good luck with that, aggy

Have to get past Miss St first to get to SC.

With VT losing again to 14-14 UVA, Texas’ split this week and Iowa’s win over Ohio State, my guess is the new 2 seed rankings are roughly: 

#5 Iowa

#6 USC

#7 Texas

#8 VT

Would not shock me if the committee has Iowa possibly the fourth 1 seed, knocking UCLA down to the top 2 seed, and LSU bumped to a 2 seed (#8) with VT at #9. 

OU’s loss to KU may have knocked them off the top 16 seed (they were #16) for someone like Notre Dame (who probably should have been top 16 but it would have looked bad not to have the Big 12 champ in the top 16)

As for the media rankings, I’m going to guess it will be SC, Stanford, Ohio State, Iowa, Texas as the new top 5

Why does the NCAA claim that the NET rankings matter so much if this is their most recent release? 

With only 18 days remaining before Selection Sunday, the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Committee tabbed South Carolina, Ohio State, Stanford and UCLA as the No. 1 seeds in the latest top-16 reveal. If the season ended today, Virginia Tech, Texas, Iowa and Southern California would be the No. 2 seeds. 

Other than the obvious (South Carolina at No. 1) and Stanford (fourth), they've given No. 1s to UCLA (sixth) and Ohio State (seventh). 
Among the 2s, USC is 12th and Virginia Tech is 14th.

UCLA plays in the #1 NET conf and has non-conf wins over UConn, FSU, Ohio State, as well as conference wins over USC, Utah, Oregon State, Colorado

Ohio State was the B1G leader but they only have 1 notable non-conf win (Tenn) but conference wins over Iowa and Indiana 

I do think Ohio State is/was the outlier among the #1 seeds because their signature non-conf win isn’t that good. Texas has a win over UConn, as does UCLA and VT.

Iowa may have stolen the #1 seed from Ohio State with today’s win and if they win the B1G tournament.

Seems pretty inevitable that SCar gets a 1 seed, the PAC 12 gets a 1 seed, and the Big 10 gets a 1 seed. So we’re fighting for the last one and need the ACC to eat itself and some chaos in the PAC and BIG.

My belief is that SC and Stanford are locked into 1 seeds
The winner of the B1G tournament will get the third (Iowa or Ohio State)
And the following can work their way into the fourth #1 seed:

  • B1G tournament runner-up, if Ohio State or Iowa.  They'd both have to make the finals. 
  • PAC 12 runner-up, if it's Stanford or UCLA.  They both have to make the finals.
  • Texas, if they win the Big 12 tournament. 

I think the ACC is out for a 1 seed - ND is the highest NET team (#8) but wasn't even in the committee top 16. NCST is 15 and VT is 17. 

I think Texas winning the Big 12 tournament is probably the "best" for the committee, because they can just give the 1 seeds out to the SEC winner, B1G winner, Pac 12 winner and Big 12 winner.  Assuming Stanford wins the Pac 12 tournament.
