Congrats GolfBulls!

 

Way to put the boot on the neck and STOMP!!!

 

Bring on the NCAA's! !!

 

I think it was you who pointed out that the NCAA site only showed the Golf Coaches poll.

 

Interestingly, "The NCAA Men’s Golf Championship Committee will only use the Golfstat rankings."

Ringler's regional predictions: How NCAA men's postseason could look

Only 3 teams huh? ECU  to Chapel Hill makes sense, but I gotta believe they wouldn't send Houston to Chapel Hill and USF to Washington state. Makes more sense the other way 'round.

GolfStats udated their rankings today and USF remained at #18. I was hoping we would be in the top 16. Aside from USF, the ACC doesn't have any other top 25 teams this year (SMU is #29 and UH #35). So, winning the conference, in a relatively weak field, didn't give us a big lift.

In any event, the top 5 teams in each NCAA regional moves on. So, unless we really get shafted by being put into a top heavy bracket, we should be OK.

When do we find out the real brackets?

When do we find out the real brackets?

 

I seem to remember reading that it will be on May 4th.

 

I know that the regionals, will take place May 14-16 at six different sites. Only the top five teams at each will advance to the NCAA finals.

They keep delivering the goods, glad they're getting a little recognition.

Way to go Bulls!

Golf Stats put out a new ranking on 5/1 and USF moved from #18 to #16.

 

 http://www.golfstat.com/2014-2015/rankhth.cfm?gender=M

 

The NCAA selection committee supposedly only uses the Golf Stat ranking when seeding. The selection show is May 4th and will be televised by Golf Channel at around 10 AM. 

 

The AAC should have three teams selected: USF #16, SMU #28 and UH #35.
