Committee/Tourney Gripe thread

1. Nova as a 2...they lost 6 of their last 10 and their first Big East tourney game. See 2006 Tennessee.
2. Siena is much better than a 13. Purdue is fricked.
3. Leaving out State and putting in Minn. I know...Iknow 5-7 vs. top 50 rpi, but what an embrarrasment today for them, whereas State was inches from vicory. I guess neither deserved.
4. Leaving out Rhode Island. I just like their mascot and their state.
5. Notre Dame as a 6? Bubble a week ago!
6. San Diego State as an 11? I think they will upset the Vols.
7. Mizzou - not so much a gripe - but they got in bc of the strength of the Big XII.

Correct.

Eh, they should have been a 12. And Purdue will beat them.

The bracket must have been done before Minnesota's loss today. No way they deserved to be in.

The biggest mistake is that they gave Duke a much easier road than Kansas or Kentucky. Specifically, matching the best two 2 seeds with the best two 1 seeds. I'd be pissed if I were a UK/KU fan.

Duke is always going to get the red carpet treatment. Not a shocker. Kansas should be livid.
Posted on 3/14/10 at 5:50 pm to emmanuellewis
no, dude, according to some guy in the other thread, the higher seeds get tougher brackets. that's how it always is....

Siena is a little overrated this year
They will be a VERY popular pick to upset Purdue
I said from before conference tourneys Purdue was goin out in the first round
Im gonna probably pick Purdue to win this one

thats for sure, what the hell is UK who is the 2nd 1 seed having a potential match up with the 1st number 2 seed in wvu

im definitely gonna pick purdue. everyone thinks this is the siena squad from the past that fricked up vandy and whatnot. but it's not.

Purdue is going to beat Siena.
Posted on 3/14/10 at 5:54 pm to rockchlkjayhku11
But Purdue's injury?
Posted on 3/14/10 at 5:54 pm to PiscesTiger
Purdue beats Siena.

Gonzaga lumped in with Texas, Cal and UNLV as 8 seeds is BS.
Posted on 3/14/10 at 5:57 pm to SprintFun
Hold on, they are changing the 'One Shining Moment' song? Are you fricking kidding me? Was anyone complaining about the old song?
That makes about as much sense as adding another 32 teams to the tournament.

Dude, it's really not. Gonzaga isn't good. That's right, I said it. They aren't good.

It annoys me that no one brought it up. Also, Kansas has the second best 2 seed and the best 3 seed. A terrible job from the selection committee.
Posted on 3/14/10 at 6:04 pm to emmanuellewis
the committee guy just made no sense on cbs about the seeding with duke
Posted on 3/14/10 at 6:06 pm to StraightCashHomey21
I think WVU got the second hardest 1 seed, but the easiest road to the Elite 8.
I think Duke got the worst 2 and 4, but the second strongest 3. The 8/9 game might give the biggest challenge on the way to the Final 4.

But we need a celebrity to sing it. Everybody loves celebrities.
