March 17, 201313 yr They say the #1 overall and the easiest path is not true. It's most geographical. I think Lville got hosed.
March 17, 201313 yr Ole Miss was going to get in win or lose they say. So that's a bit of a surprise to me.
March 17, 201313 yr I'm placing all my hopes on Murray lol I'm not seeing them making it. Too many bad losses. Hope I'm wrong!
March 17, 201313 yr I'm not seeing them making it. Too many bad losses. Hope I'm wrong! Me too! Really don't want to see Canaan end his career the way the Belmont game ended
March 17, 201313 yr I don't guess that I have a lot of complaints or feelings that someone that's not in got hosed. I will say that although Middle Tenn. had a great record they played absolutely no one. My main complaint / question is New Mexico getting a #3 seed, I could argue them for the 1 seed over Gonzaga and the 2 seed at best, NMU got hosed on the seeding, jmo.
March 17, 201313 yr I think Lville got hosed. That is imo the toughest bracket by far. UL is playing so well right now I will still probably put the in the F4.
March 17, 201313 yr The committee did one thing they have never done put two teams that have played each other playing in the second round. UNLV and Oregon.

I agree with you on Middle Tennessee St. They played 4 games all season against teams in the RPI top 100 and went 1-3. They also lost to Arkansas St. RPI 164. MTSU is RPI 29 but ....

I don't have a problem with MTSU getting in. I think the idea the committee head tried to sell as what set them apart rang hollow though. He said what separated them from others was their ability to win away from home vs. the inability of the bubble teams. Their best road win? At UCF, #102 in the RPI. They were 11-4 on the road with only two of those wins coming in the top 150 of the RPI, both in the 101-150 range. So yeah, they won on the road, but against middling to bad teams. He needed a different argument.
March 17, 201313 yr Did I hear right that Miami is the first team to win the regular season and conference tournament in the ACC and not get a #1 seed?
March 17, 201313 yr Ole Miss was going to get in win or lose they say. So that's a bit of a surprise to me. I was surprised when they said this too.
