What it takes to make the NCAA tournament

There are two ways in. How qualifying works.

How many more wins it needs

Its last 7 games against D2 teams: how many it might win, and its NCAA chance in each case. A tie counts as half a win.

WinsHow likelyNCAA chance then
0 22% under 5%
1 36% under 5%
2 26% under 5%
3 13% under 5%
4 3% under 5%
5 0% –
6 under 1% –
7 (all) under 1% under 5%

– means too few simulated seasons to say. Which games are won matters as well as how many: wins over strong teams and away wins count for more.

If Chestnut Hill wins all 7: its NPI would still fall short of the cut line, so it would also need to win the CACC tournament.

Rating over the season

Line: rating after each daily update. Shaded: likely range. Above 0 is better than an average D2 team.

Results

How much each result changed the rating. A win can lower it if the model expected a bigger win; a narrow loss to a strong team can raise it.
