March 13, 201610 yr I like IU to advance, but Chattanooga is a tough match-up. Versatile group. Little erratic, but can be dangerous.
March 13, 201610 yr UK 15-5 vs top 100; Miami 16-4 UK 3-2 vs top 25; Miami 4-3 vs top 25 UK regular season and conference tourney champion; Miami didn't even make their conference tourney final and finished 3rd in their conference. I am not saying UK is clearly better, but it is comparable and winning your conference regular season (tie) and tourney should count for something. Miami's conference is exponentially better. Does that count for something?
March 13, 201610 yr Sick of reading KentuckyEARNS #4 seed More like they were given it for some reason because we earned a better seed than a 4
March 13, 201610 yr What is the lowest RPI team to ever get an at large bid? It seems to me that the breakline on having a chance to get in is usually around 50. Syracuse has an RPI of 72.
March 13, 201610 yr Miami's conference is exponentially better. Does that count for something? I agree I have no problem with Miami's #3 the only thing the Cats should have been a #3 and A&M a #4.
March 13, 201610 yr Is it true Duke is the highest rated 4th seed? If so I would love to hear the justification of that.
March 13, 201610 yr What is the lowest RPI team to ever get an at large bid? It seems to me that the breakline on having a chance to get in is usually around 50. Syracuse has an RPI of 72. Syracuse is the worst. Already been on Twitter.
March 13, 201610 yr Miami's conference is exponentially better. Does that count for something? And Miami's non conference SOS was 90. Borderline embarrassing. Again, I am not arguing UK clearly is better. Just saying it is debatable. UK's non-conference SOS was 12.
March 13, 201610 yr Miami's conference is exponentially better. Does that count for something? Agreed. I don't think Texas A&M should have been seeded ahead of UK but Miami definitely gets the nod. Being competitive in a very tough conference means something to me and should mean something to the committee members. Bottom line, if UK wouldn't have dropped games against two of the worst teams in a very average conference, they'd be a 2 or a 3 seed.
March 13, 201610 yr I agree I have no problem with Miami's #3 the only thing the Cats should have been a #3 and A&M a #4. An argument could easily be made for UK over A&M. There is no argument for UK over Miami.
March 13, 201610 yr I agree with Cal that the teams (like UK) that may have been knocked down a seed or two are punished less than the teams that have to play them. It's PC, but I also agree with it.
March 13, 201610 yr And Miami's non conference SOS was 90. Borderline embarrassing. Again, I am not arguing UK clearly is better. Just saying it is debatable. UK' non-conference SOS was 12. UK's non-con SOS is obviously going to be better because they play in a joke of a conference... They load up in the OOC for that reason. Every year, rinse and repeat. You can debate it if you want, but in no way does UK deserve a higher seed than Miami.

March 13, 201610 yr Can we get Bernie Sanders protesters to go to NCAA selection Comm HQ and protest the seed UK got.
