How many days have you been a fan of college basketball?no_uh said:I kinda think SMU got screwed worse than when UW won the conference and didn't get in. I like how the committee claims they've stopped paying attn to "what have you done lately" but seems to really despise first round conference tournament losses. Goes to show why more than a few coaches have been vocal on why they don't like them.

If I didn't know any better, I'd actually assume that our AD cared about winning. You'd think woody would be pissed off and not want to reward a shitty team by letting them play in some worthless tournament when the fact is they'd rather save the money to send the women's softball team to another tournament. But if they WERE actually serious about winning, they would have a search committee hard at work right about now.

Nobody ever gets truly screwed as in "there's no way that ever should have happened," but as far as truly surprising snubs go, I think both were up there. My ultimate point being that the SMU one was more surprising.allpurpleallgold said:

SMU went 12-7 in the #6 conference in America and played a horrible nonconference schedule:no_uh said:

The fact that they were close to making the field further proves that the tournament should be shrunk back down to 64 teams. -
It's a pretty decent conference that has multiple title contenders. Certainly, their non-conference schedule is the ultimate justification. Still, you are way off base if you think that it wasn't a surprise or their consideration is reason that the field should be reduced. SMU swept UCONN, beat Memphis, and curb stomped Cincy. Pomeroy has SMU at 32. I'm not in the minority here. NC State? BYU? Explain those...TierbsHsotBoobs said:

I have no justification for including any of those teams. The whole field is a #fuckingdreckfest after the 4th seed line.no_uh said:

This. The majesty and pageantry of March Madness is a fucking joke. Sure, Cinderella stories are nice if you give a fuck, but basically, fucking dreckfest. Just make the entry point the sweet sixteen. Fuck.TierbsHsotBoobs said:
