Message: [QUOTE="bpo57, post: 208820, member: 1572"] Where to begin. Villanova had no business being in the tourney. Overseeded? Not even really worth a discussion. They had a #1 lose to a #8, a 6 lose to an 11, another 6 lose to an 11, a 2 lose to a 10, a 4 lose to a 13 and many of the losses were not even remotely close. Yeah two were eliminated by fellow BE teams, that's one way to look at it. Another way is to say that they didn't have to beat a non-BE team to advance. You'd have to twist yourself into a pretzel to say the BE wasn't overseeded last year. I give you credit for trying. Keep applying the lipstick on that pig. It's not a conspiracy theory. I just think it is fresh in people's minds what happened last year when they invited a ton of BE teams and they might not want to hear the criticism that would come with inviting ten BE teams this year. Not a big factor but I think it is possible it comes into play in a minor way. [/QUOTE]
