alabama is a 4!? We're a 7. Just how do they figure that BS out when we put 100+ on them twice in the last few weeks?

"Win for Micah!"

We got dropped a seed most likely from Handlogten out

I do not understand looking for specific reasons to fit a narrative. It is based on an entire season. Any road win is a good win in the conference,, but UF has one great road win against UK. UK won at Barn,. at UF and at TN. KY also beat UNC on a neutral floor. UF also lost to Ole Piss and Vandy. And I am not sure UF beat one non conference opponent who made the tourney field? So I am not sure that things are that unfair? All I am saying is everything counts not just the last 5 days or one game here or there. Iowa State beat Houston twice this season. Should they be a #1 seed? Maybe.

Handlogten injury hurt our seeding imo. Either way, it's a bullshcit seed. Probably better than being in that 5vs12 game though

 

[Bernardo de la Paz]

We would have been 5 or 6 without the injury to Micah.

7 is what I was expecting. Everyone knows the committee factors in injuries. Let's not go full Florida State and whine like bitches about it.

 

[MidwestChomp]

The loss to Vandy probably hurt us more than we thought. But, I like our bracket. We can make the elite 8.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

We won't even get in, the refs fuched us. And if I could buy a gun, Id shoot some fools. /born

[Silverback Gator]

Kensucky is so overrated its not even funny. How do you three seed them after the season they've had?

We play a similar schedule. 23-9 vs our 24-11.

And now we all find ourselves in the strange position of hoping Kugel plays.

Didn't want to give you a downvote, so I didn't. But 'hoping Kuegel plays' when he hasn't seen the floor in the last 2 games of the SEC tourney (even Klatsky, May, Kublickas, and Anderson got in the boxscore in the SEC final). His confidence has to be gone at this point, I don't know if we can count on him for anything so hoping he plays leaves me with

You think we got it bad. USF won 15 games in a row this year. They won their regular season conference title. They lost in the semifinals to UAB who played them very physical. Like Auburn did to us. They were ranked two weeks ago.

And they did not get into the dance.

In fact, the team that they split their series with, FAU, got into the dance. And they beat FAU for the regular season title and went further into the tourney.

These teams got absolutely hosed as well. They refused the NIT invitations.

Snubbed St. John's, OU, Pitt decline invites to NIT

First-year St. John's coach Rick Pitino told the NIT selection committee that the team didn't want to play in the also-ran event. Oklahoma and Pitt also said they didn't want to take part.

Dreams die hard, particularly in March.

The Big East found that out Sunday as three 20-win teams -- Providence, Seton Hall and St. John's -- were all snubbed by the NCAA selection committee.

St. John's arguably had the biggest gripe of the three. It finished 20-13 overall, winning six games in a row -- four of them by at least 14 points -- before a loss to overall No. 1 seed UConn in the Big East semifinals on Friday.

agreed, losing a 7 footer the hours before the committee met played a role.

USF got as fuched, but like Kentucky getting over seeded... name recognition is huge. The tournament is about money. USF isn't going to bring it in.

At some point I think we’ve just got to cue up “Thanks for the Memories” and let him loose to continue his Walk About. He’s more distraction than a positive anything at this point, even though there’s a hole in the rotation.
