[QUOTE="Roll Cuse, post: 1703515, member: 3404"]
I get this and its sorta true... butttttt its just a cop out IMO to simply make excuses for these teams and say it means nothing.  Comparing the resumes of the likes of monmouth and Bonas to Cuse its apples to oranges and not an exact science.  Any type of results have to help add some context.  They are trying to determine the better team and better resume when they play such drastically different schedules, so when you look at the results since and see that Bonas lost at home to Wagner, Monmouth Lost at home to GW in dominating fashion, and then consider that not only does the ACC have 6 of the sweet 16, and not only that cuse played 7 of the 15 other remaining tourney teams, but that there is only 1 mid major remaining, it has to make one wonder if maybe the comittee actually isnt as stupid as everyone wants to believe.

Imagine if cuse missed the tourney and we were sitting here staring at this sweet 16 filled with our peers.  We would be losing our minds.  Meanwhile Monmouth gets praised for how tough of a schedule they played (basically the only reasoning for even gett9ing at large consideration) yet I look at it and see exactly 3 tournament teams.  The entire season.  ND Dayton and Iona, who is only in because monmouth couldnt beat them in their conf championship.  Sorry but I dont feel bad for the little guy...Cuse belonged in this tourney period.
