[quote name='Bengals1181' post='634412' date='Feb 21 2008, 02:48 PM']so will they still have a shot at the tournament based on their conference record and impressive win list, or are the 12 losses too many already? They currently stand 6th in a conference likely to send 8, though they are 10th in the conference by overall record.[/quote]
They have 6 games left, including 3 tough road games, and the conference tournament. Realistically I think they need to get to at least 17 wins (and probably 18) to go to the big dance, with at least 1 win over one of the ranked teams. But if you consider the strength of their schedule, I think as long as they are at least 1 game over .500 they have a good shot at the NIT.
