With selection coming up this Sunday, what were some of the worst snubs of last ten years or so?

Also, who were some grossly undeserving teams that got a bid?

So many teams involved that i always forget stuff like this.

I think Illinois State not getting in last year was a travesty.

I remember everyone flipping out over VCU getting a spot in the play-in game in 2011 and then they ended up making the F4.

Southwest Missouri St has some big snubs. I believe they are only team to have an RPI in 20's, they were #21. and not get in.

They got jobbed 2 times, and both were bad. But when you have tards like the guy from tOSU on the board, this is what you get. Make sure to put those 7-10 Majors in, who go out first day.


Richmond was 21-6 won their conference, but because they were leaving for A-10, they were suspended from Conference tourney and NCAA then screwd them over

Utah State from over a decade ago was actually ranked and got left out.

As far as undeserving teams, Tulsa got in a couple years ago to the shock of everyone, even their own players. I recall the committee chair weirdly trying to make Tulsa's case by criticizing St. Bonaventure's schedule.

UW won the Pac-12 a few years ago and got left out. First team to ever win a P5 conference and not get an at-large. To be fair though, the Pac-12 was absolute garbage that year.

Member when the NCAA trolled a 24-8 South Carolina team by telling them they were in the tournament?

Only to say it was a mistake 10 minutes later?

2016 Tulsa was one of the biggest surprises to ever make the tournament. I don’t think anyone predicted that they would make the tournament.

I still think they placed us in Greenville SC the next year as an apology.

and did this the following season ...



...with the same core of talent.

the Gamecock team that was snubbed actually had three more 4-year players with substantial career minutes, to go along with the same core talent.

Well the committee admitted that they cut Cuse some slack over Boeheim missing 9-10 games. He missed those games for a reason...
