St Mary’s has weak schedule but it’s hard to win 28 games and they beat Gonzaga on the road. 

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

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

Michigan was going to be in regardless.  Good basketball squad.  The team that absolutely doesn't belong in the tourney is Syracuse.  Every year they sneak in and only once, recently have they had a solid run.

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.

And they weren’t even the first out ... Notre Dame was.... Davidson stole NDs bid when they upset Rhode Island.

Cuse’s 2-3 zone can give teams problems. They upset uva few years back when uva turned the ball over late .... uva gagged that game.

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

Speaking of zone defense, one game we should keep our eyes on is Cincinnati vs Georgia State. 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???

Interesting. In their notable games, the two losses they took to dayton and ole miss were competitive games. Can't wait to see how they do against their best opponent to date this thursday/friday.

SOS is 126

RPI of 22

Against the top 100 they are 7-1

Loyola sure is creating a lot of hype. Hopefully they're as good as we think they are.

Can’t see a 14 point underdog pulling the upset. That’s the line for penn and Kansas Too....
