They apparently beat out Marist in the computer ranking comparison. Both tied for first (with self-banned San Diego), but did not play each other. I'm not sure why they didn't wait until the end of the season to decide the computer ranking tiebreaker, but whatever…

I don't think The Butler is a surprise
(under the circumstances)

Now, if The Pards pull out a win this week to make the playoffs, that will be a surprise

I think because the GPI wouldn't be out before the selection show? I guess they didn't realize immediately when they announced what the tie-breaker would be.
