In response to HARVARDDADGRAD
We have never had a 2nd bid or a sniff of one. We also haven't had this level of talent in the IL, ever. As MRJames has already said, last year, if Penn had continued to play at the Big 5 Championship level and gone 12-1 in OOC with wins against Miami, Villanova, Oregon State, Temple, LaSalle, Toledo, etc, and then gone through the IL and lost in the title game to Yale.....They would have had a very strong resume and been a contender for a 2nd bid.
As MrJames has also noted, Harvard isn't playing the kind of OOC schedule this year that will put them in a position to win a non auto bid, but Penn and Yale both have schedules that could give them a strong resume. Unlikely it will happen but one year, if the talent keeps trending and the OOC schedules stay strong, it's bound to force the issue with the committee.
