ND didn’t have colson half the year and Ferrell missed 4-5 games ... with both they beat witchita state on neutral court and are a top 15-20 team. Ok state beat Kansas twice and WV on the road. Ok in bc committe wanted Trae young in the dance. That’s all. Not to mention ok state beat ok multiple times head to head. I said I don't understand how ok state was left out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nptb17 Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 Oklahoma St might be the biggest snub in tourney history. They have 2 wins over a number 1 seed, plus about 6 other wins over tourney teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ten wasnt a great conference this year from what im reading. And so it hurt teams on the bubble. I dont watch PAC-12 basketball too much so i cant help you out there. And with Michigan winning the big 10 conference tourney im sure it hurt some teams. There was also 2 ACC teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point people have to accept that its a field of 68 determined by people. Forget that RPI SOS and the records. Its determined by people that have some sort of interest in what schools get selected. Does Oklahoma deserve to be in...if you go by how they are playing lately i would say no. They are a one trick pony who could be ousted by URI and i wouldnt consider it to be an upset. Im surprised with the amount of money ND brings to the networks they were not selected 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cincy has one of the best defenses in the nation while georgia state has one of the best zone defenses in the nation. You think we could see another georgia state upset???
