basically an admission that they think a team is weaker than their regular season accomplishment.


If they lose a star player, duh

Here is the flaw. TCU and ORU are the 2 lowest ranked teams remaining. They play each other first. That means one of them is GUARANTEED to not use Johnny Wholestaff in Game 2. Meanwhile Florida and Virginia play, and one of them will GUARANTEED have to use Johnny Wholestaff in Game 2.

TCU and ORU are on a tear. Just because the committee didn't get it all right with seeds doesn't mean those 2 are the weakest teams in Omaha. Same could have been said about Fresno State in 2012 and Coastal Carolina in 2018(?).

If you just reseed in-between the regionals and supers that would eliminate the issue. I doubt Oral Roberts get out of Winston Salem. Reseeding the supers would have looked like this.

Wake vs ORU
Florida v USM
LSU v Oregon
Virginia vs Texas
Stanford vs Duke
Kentucky vs TCU
Indian St vs Tennessee
South Carolina vs Bama

This really assures either you earned the way into Omaha and no team will need to be reseeded. ORU benefited from a weak regional and super. Had they went to Wake and won, we would look at them differently.


I could actually get on board with something like this.
