What are our chances to make the tourney? Will seven wins do it?

You can check out the Yale Undergraduate Sports Analytics group thread to find out their probabilities (spoiler alert - Brown is currently in fourth for the men and eighth place for the women).

If you check out that group's website link below, you can plug in a variety of results for the next two weekends to see what will be needed.

I assumed that seven wins would get Brown the 4th spot but that’s not the case. In fact, we could lose out with eight wins based on tiebreak rules!!!

Looking at the Brown-Columbia game on ESPNU.

The camera appears to be at a different angle, which makes for a good view. Also, the court looks polished and much better lit.

These guys might just be ready for prime time!
