Both ESPN and CBS released a new Bracketology on December 10th prior to our HUGE win at Michigan. Lunardi at ESPN had us as a bubble team in the "Next Four Out". Have to think after this win we are dancing in his eyes.

Jerry Palm at CBS had us as an EIGHT SEED! Very exciting that the national media is starting to take this Gopher team seriously.
 

TeamRankings upped us from 38% chance to make NCAA tourney to 63% after the Michigan win.

Predictions Update
Dec 12, 2021
After beating Michigan 75-65 yesterday, Minnesota is now projected to finish the regular season 18-12 (8-12 Big Ten).
The odds that the Golden Gophers make the NCAA tournament are up to 63%, an increase of 33% since yesterday.
We currently rank Minnesota as the #58 team in the country, and the #10 team in the Big Ten.
Next game: Tue, Dec 14 vs. #278 TX A&M-CC. Our power ratings give the Golden Gophers a 96% chance to win.

Minnesota will probably make the NCAA tournament even if they don't win the Big Ten tournament, but they should aim for an automatic bid to be safe.
As for an automatic bid ... Minnesota has a 1% chance to win the conference tournament. The outlook is bleak, but stranger things have happened.
If the Golden Gophers can get to 20 total wins (including conference tournament wins), their odds to make the NCAA tournament increase to 98%.
We project the Golden Gophers with a 5% chance to make the Sweet Sixteen, but essentially no chance to reach the Final Four.

Team Rankings also has Michigan at #25. My analysis of their rankings says that their rankings are trash.
