The programs have that kind of talent and the conference deserves that respect. The committee should make that happen. The MVC is a 1 bid conference. What is frustrating is that bid stealing is allowed. They should establish the number of teams a conference, big or small, gets in, and then boot the lowest team in that conference if a new team wins their tournament. For example, UCLA should be out now and UCONN as well. The Group of 4 (WCC, A10, MVC, MW) below the Power 5 +2, is getting 8 bids, 2 per conference.

Bay Area Billiken Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Our last breath, if the plug has not already been pulled, is we need Houston to beat Cincinnati in AAC, just about to start on ESPN. I think we're NIT bound, as #2 NCAA Replacement Team, maybe #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Bismack Byombo was the 7th pick of a draft, primarily based in his 7’7” wingspan, you would think that someone might take Ossuniyi in the first or second round with a 7’8” wingspan. I think the later is a better player as of the time of drafting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Follow the money. Each game played in the NCAA Tourney produces an NCAA Unit valued at $1.8 to $1.9 Million. FWIW we don’t know that anything has been ignored, unless you mean by meaningless bracket predictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are at least six 'if's on that statement. If Schmidt comes back If Lofton comes back If Osunniyi comes back If Welch comes back If Adaway comes back If Holmes comes back But yeah, line up what we know today and they will be Top 25.

Matty Light Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Who cares what Joe Lunardi and Jerry Palm and other journalists think? They don't run this tournament. Business executives do. They want the best product. The CSU Rams, Drake and Wichita State are not it. SLU's resume is considerably better than those teams. You think CBS's producers aren't relishing the chance to feature Jordan Goodwin and Travis Ford's 92 Final Four? I think we will be first 4 in. We all saw each conference's product in the conference tournaments. The A10 was far above the MWC, MVC, AAC, and all the other non-power 6. There are so many great players. They have to give 2 at-large to the A-10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This weekend has been a roller coaster of emotions haha The problem with the journalists is that they have fallen into the sam flawed model used in college football. They decided to make a projected bracket before conference tournaments started and then dropping or raising team's positions after each time they play. What they should be doing is completely reassessing the body of work each day. It's why CSU gets great credit for beating UNI and SLU gets no credit for beating LSU. Journalists weren't talking about LSU 2 weeks ago. Go look at that win now. In football a team ranked at the beginning of the year moves up if they don't lose, despite who they play. 2010andBeyond and Slu let the dogs out? like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billikenbill Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Over the last 5 days, we’ve gone from appearing on 39 brackets on bracketmatrix to one. The last one https://haslametrics.com/ratings.php has us as an 11 seed. Maybe out of 130 or so brackets, hoping this is the one who got it right.
