Bracket Show

Virginia Tech got screwed. Champ of P5 conference coming on strong ... did not deserve an 11 seed
 
With games in Greenville, SC, Duke as a 2 was never in doubt.

I’ll be at the games on Friday. Should be fun with Duke, Auburn and Davidson in driving distance, plus MSU in the bracket.
 

And A&M beat them head to head
 
I didn't think they did a terrible job based on the precedent they had set in prior year.
Certainly I would like more mid-majors then middling P5 schools but that is the way it always is.

They pretty much lock teams in before the Big10 final every year.

Duke as a #2 was a joke, but its the same old crap for Duke.

It was a bad job by the committee. Hopefully that charade goes out the door when K retires. I have my champagne on ice.
 
NET is worse than RPI, too. Not transparent about the formula and clearly favors P5s over mid-majors.

Not sure if NET is worse or not. Could be, Certainly agree that it is not transparent.
I think they just ignore them if they are high for mid-majors -- just like the past.

Personally think Bryant deserved at least a 15.

Their metrics were pretty clear of that of a 16 and a play in. I worked on the 16 line earlier today.
They had the second worse NET, the fourth worse KenPom, and no Q1 or Q2 wins to push them up

They are trending well though -- they might be a great pick in the "JN Cuse Make up a ****** NCAA Tournament Contrest Trophy".
