Wait until college football goes to an 8 or 16 team playoff. The uproar from teams left out will be deafening.

Bells two hearted i heart you especially for your 7.0 abv

Doesn’t get any better than Bells two hearted.

Pay the playoffs

lowest seed to reach the Final Four .. New Mexico 3? Saints Louis 4? Butler 6?

Michigan / South Dakota State winner.

but TNC – it’s NOT who you beat. MTSU, St. May’s beat nobody. But they ‘played’ people (non conf SOS).
Tenn, Maryland have quality wins. but they didn’t play as many in the non-conf.

I agree. I may have wrote poorly. That is my argument (and Bilas). Who you beat is related to who you schedule. And teams like UT played a far better OOC schedule than MTSU.

Look, UT sucks and got what they deserve. But they went out and scheduled aggressively (Wichita St, Georgetown, others) and it didnt help them any at all.

For what its worth MTSU would probably smoke UT and Virginia and probably Maryland also.

everyone writing off the Zips. wait and see.

They are playing a VCU team that destroys turnover prone teams… they just lost their starting PG, so I’d say VCU will murder them unless their backup PG plays the game of his life.

The hatred is gone, but there is still underlying resentment.

I wish they had televised Roy’s reaction, probably an epic facepalm.

I’m a Terps fan and I didn’t think Maryland deserved to make the tournament — not enough OOC tests coupled with some bad losses. But then a team like MTSU gets in, and I get irritated all over again. Bottom line: beating Duke twice matters a whole hell of a lot more than scheduling a few decent OOC teams.

I feel like the 8 seeds were seeded low esp. Pitt and UNC. It’s almost like they wanted to set up some juicy 2nd round matchups. NCSt. is pretty feisty as well. Likewise UCLA and Memphis at a 6 seems way too high.

Also if seeds hold we’ll have yet another Wisky-K-State matchup in the 2nd round, they met in the 2nd round in ’08 and ’11.

Oregon as a 12 is also really baffling. The media seems to focus on the bubble teams and ignore the questionable seeding decisions.

KU vs Roy Williams in Kansas City. Print money.

Yeah the NCAA has really been good about flaunting that storyline. Have Kansas fans really still not moved on? I figured 40-12 and the championship would have been enough to let go.

Pretty stunned UNC got an 8 seed. They are higher in almost every conceivable metric when compared to every 7 seed. The committee must not have thought highly of the ACC.

Its who beat you and how many losses you have that trumps and not vice versa. The committee needs to quit pretending otherwise.

Those are actual schools? Not interested.

Some school named Saint Louis
