Marsh - I think a lot of the nitpicking is because of high expectations and the constant extrapolation of this play into the NCAAT. A lot of people see the flaws and worry.
 
Lost in that perspective however, are the accomplishments of the season unfolding in front of them.  Many view the NCAAT as the only barometer.  They don't have the view, like SWC, of the various elements that could make a season special - like 30 wins, or a BE title.
 
I have really enjoyed this season.  I think a lot of it for me has been because it feels to me like this team is overacheiving.  The flaws of no player scoring from the blocks, no above average 3 ptr, and rebounding issues, have been present all season long.  Winning with defense, and steals, is not what I'm used to.  Yet the team keeps winning.
 
But even with all the regular season success, this Pitt/Butler type winning style guarantees very little in the NCAAT.  The real advantage of continuing these wins for the NCAAT will be in the seeding and location.  Should help, hope it does.
