For the Johnnies they are on the bubble right now, and likely on the outside looking in, according to the Pool C wizards (not me). A buzzer beater against Concordia and the loss to Bethel doesn't help.
So what does a 19 point ass kicking mean?
SJU belongs in the tournament...especially if they play in the MIAC Championship. The only thing that would rule them out is an upstart winning the MIAC tournament.
Nice win by J’s for the parts I could see (some ugly webcast kinks). Had to turn the audio with incessant VOJ whining too. His color guy offsets hima bit at least. You’ll get no disagreement from me that the Johns should be in, and that preceded tonight’s win. I was more so noting that there was “chatter” from the experts that know the selection process that they were hovering on the bubble. The Johnnies do need to run to the championship to keep the auto-bid to them or UST.
The Tommies have some defensive issues to sort out.
