Colorado State RPI 30, DENIED
Which idiot said that U of Arizona playing in Portland, Oregon is a virtual home game? I live in AZ and other than they are in a Pac 10 area, that is like saying that playing in Atlanta is a virtual home game for Syracuse. Stupid, stupid.
It's because you were not nearly as drunk as the committee, apparently.This is the first time in a while I miss 3 teams from the field... although I suspect many will have at least 2 misses.
I had
Temple
Colorado St
Old Dominion in
I did not have
Ole Miss
BYU
UCLA
The big surprise is obviously UCLA. That pick makes no sense.
Second worst job by an NCAA committee, unless both committees had the same members, then I would understand that they had been very, very busy for 8 years looking under rocks.Might be one of the worst jobs by the selection committee. Wrong teams in wrong seeds.
1. West
2. Midwest
3. East
4. South
...in terms of toughest brackets, in descending order, based on the 1-4 seeds. Agree? Disagree?[/QUO
I think the 1-3 are very close... South by a long shot the easiest bracket, of course, favoring Duke
Thats how I have my regions ranked.1. West (Wisc, Zona, Baylor, UNC)
2. Midwest (Kentucky, Kansas, ND, MD)
3. East (Nova, Virginia, Oklahoma, Louisville)
4. South (Duke, Gonzaga, Iowa State, Georgetown)

Saw this pointed out - the committee guy interviewed on CBS said they thought UCLA was "gaining steam" toward the end of the year...and UCLA was 4-3 over their last seven games. Yeah, that's gaining serious steam.
Georgetown's best non-conference wins are Florida and Indiana-10 seed and they beat Butler twice, Villanova, and St. John's at home and the freaking EYE TEST gets them a 4 seed. What logic is that.
