Fair enough, I'm just pointing out how many A&M posters jumped into this thread one way or the other.

Aggies are good people, my man. But we are definitely happy to be in the SEC.

Could it possibly be because we were in the conference for almost 20 years, left in a public way, and that there are multiple big 12 fan bases obsessed with us?

I just remain unconvinced that these conferences are sooooo much better than the SEC that they deserve 4 more teams in the tournament each.

Tell some of the SEC brethren to schedule better in the nonconference.

SC

Had a total of two wins against teams in the tournament, and one of those was against Tulsa. They would have had the chance for more, but the SEC was horrid.

ETA: Three if you count Vandy getting their arse beat by Wichita State in a play in game as making the tournament.

They are not even remotely close to be being bad enough for these conferences to get 4 more teams than them. Not even close. I don't see how someone can watch these teams and actually think that. 24 of the at larges going to 4 conferences?

Who else from the SEC would have made it to the second round? Florida? Alabama? South Carolina?

SC had a weak OOC schedule,


That and LSU non conference is what killed the SEC. The SEC had good teams this year. It just wasnt good on paper because of the 2 teams mentioned above being good in conference.

The resumes are absolutely better, though. South Carolina gets in over Texas tech because Tennessee made the sweet 16 as an 11 seed one year? I mean none of the big 12 teams that got in were even on the bubble

They've got two favorites in Oklahoma and Kansas. If one of them go down early, I'd laugh, but seems a bit premature at this point.



West Virginia was being talked about as one of the best teams in the country pretty late in the year. Baylor got beat. Tech got ousted.

If Texas gets bounced tonight, which I think they will, they'll be 3-4, which for what many thought was the best conference in the nation is definitely underperming.

The question I ask is who should an SEC team have gotten in over? No one in the Big 12 for sure. SC didn't do itself any favors losing 5 out of its last 8 or whatever it was.

The worst non-conference RPI in the big 12 was 54. That team is playing Northern Iowa right now...
