What it takes to make the NCAA tournament
There are two ways in. How qualifying works.
- Win the MEC tournament (the auto bid): 17% chance.
- Or earn an at-large place on the NPI, the NCAA's ranking formula: 69% chance. NPI now 57.1, 5th of 53 in Super Region 1. The last at-large team usually ends on about 55.1, so Concord is about 1.9 above it. Super Region 1 has 5 at-large places.
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.
| Wins | How likely | NCAA chance then |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | under 1% | – |
| 1 | 2% | – |
| 2 | 12% | about 55% |
| 3 | 24% | about 80% |
| 4 | 30% | about 95% |
| 5 | 21% | about 100% |
| 6 | 8% | over 99% |
| 7 (all) | 1% | over 99% |
– 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 Concord wins all 7: it makes the NCAA tournament as an at-large team, even without the conference title.
