Selection Sunday thread...

Iowa St wasn’t even in the top 5 seeds

The selection committee members shouldlose their jobs. Iowa State easily deserved a 1 seed. Not only did they not get a 1 seed but they got put in the toughest region too.

They are getting penalized for the NET gaming joke OOC schedule.

Pretty tough region for UConn so far. Iowa State can beat them.

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

I have not been as impressed with my Aztecs this year, but I think they will avoid the 5-12 loss against UAB. Then Auburn will end it, however. Can’t see anyone beating U Conn in the East, or anywhere, honestly

Same.

I can see Iowa State as a 2. I can’t see them in the same bracket as UCLOWN. That part is ridiculous.

I don't see any reason for them being lower than a 2. There's no 4th team that has close to the resume as them.

I posted this last night in another thread.

North Carolina has 3 top 25 NET wins - #6 Tennessee, #10 Duke, #10 Duke
Iowa State has 5 NET top 25 wins - #1 Houston (28 pt. win), #1 Houston, #13 BYU, #14 Baylor, #16 Kansas.

Iowa State - 10 quad 1 wins. UNC - 9 quad 1 wins. So what exactly has UNC done to get a 1 seed over them?

North Carolina gets constant favoritism from refs, the media and the selection committee. It's beyond a joke.

The Nebraska player lalughing at their match up is not a good look. So you got a bubble team. Don't need to laugh about it.

Of course Duke gets a defacto home game in Brooklyn

Everyone will pick JMU over Wisconsin. Not me.

 

[rrlbees]

There’s your 5-12 upset. Bye Wisky

I just don’t think they are the worst #2, which was what the committee has basically said.

 

[djorange1989]

Go Vermont!!

 

[kirbivore]

Seth picked JMU, hammer Wisconsin.

 

[djorange1989]

There’s you 5-12 upset. Bye Wisky

Yep!

 

[two3zone]

Drove of Subaru will be heading south to Brooklyn to beat Duke. We all drive Subarus that day.

 

[kirbivore]

Boise? Another MWC team to bet against.

 

[djorange1989]

10-10 in Dayton?!!

 

[kirbivore]

Marquette vs UK would be a cool S16 game.

 

[tptcuse]

So crazy to see 9 loss teams getting a two-seed. College basketball is so weird lately.

 

[Cuse181]

So far this is… something. A&M a 9 seed? Boise a 10? A 10 seed first 4?

UNC and Duke always get preferential treatment. Iowa St. isn’t name brand enough to be a one when the resumes are so close.

 

[Biaxtar]

Houston bracket is 10x tougher than Uconns
and since when was a 10 seed a play in game.

 

[Cuse181]

Either or, they’ll both be out the next round so it’s a low risk pick either way

Auburn and Arizona actually had higher net ranking than Iowa State….and NC.

 

[NineOneSeven]

March madness is as good as it gets but bottom line all of this is based on what, some old men trying to use objective data but essentially arbitrarily putting teams on a piece of paper right? So much of it comes down to matchups.

Like us against Marquette in the 2nd round in 2011.

Yeah I had that same question above. And why the hell is Boise in the play in game in the first place?
