Selection Sunday thread

1-12 in Q1 games bruh.

Right, but 7 of those were against the best teams in the country. The whole quad argument has to have some nuance within the quad itself. If you leave them out over someone else you are basically saying their own metrics don't count. However, I would have zero issues with that Q1 record keeping them out. Just saying there isn't a good argument to be made for one school definitely being deserving over another. They are all crappy teams.

unc got helped because they played a tough OOC schedule. didnt beat any of the tough teams but it looks good on a metric
That may be what happened, but it's stupid if it was.

I would imagine it was a revenue $$$ thing.
 
The bubble was really weak this year. If you got left out, you don't have a lot of sympathy from me.
 
Don't know how they justify UNC. Will be interesting to see who got hosed.

I'm anxious to hear the chair of the committee comments about all of this. I think he's going to take some serious heat.
Of course Bubba passed on that question😂 Maybe I’m just overthinking it but it looks pretty shady for UNc to get in with a 1-12 Q1 record with Bubba being the head of the committee.

Texas gets in the first four too. That means 14 SEC teams.
giphy.webp
 
I was really hoping UNCW got in that 12 vs 4 or at least 13 vs 5. But they got sent to Wichita as the 14 to play against Texas Tech.

UNC Athletic Director Bubba said he wasn't in the room when UNC discussed. Vice Chair basically pivoted and said it was all about result of Memphis UAB game. Didn't really explain why UNC got in though.

Then later Bubba said West Virginia was basically next team in but injury to West Virginia senior forward Tucker DeVries was a factor in them not getting in.

lol, Devries has been out since early December and they have some good wins since then including @ Kansas and vs ISU.
 
How good is UNCW? I know nothing about them.
They can put some points up. They've been fun to watch this year. They rebound well and also are a good passing team. But this is in the CAA of course. They played Kansas early on. Wasn't really a game. Newby can get hot and score in bunches. If he is on, they might make it a game for the first half. But Texa Tech is definitely in another league from Wilmington.
 
West Virginia and Boise got hosed.
WVU best wins against then ranked teams.
No. 3 Gonzaga
No. 24 Arizona
No. 7 Kansas
No. 2 Iowa St

Boise beat 6 tournament teams including a No. 4 seed

However, UNC got in with their best win being No. 18 UCLA. They also lost to Kansas who WVU beat. The B12 this year definitely was better than the ACC. Texas getting in with 15 losses is also kinda crazy.

Indiana got screwed also. Indiana won at michigan st. Beat Purdue. Only losses are quad 1
 
🤔It was literally a rivalry game which went to OT. SC problem is that they couldn't win close games mostly.
South Carolina would have had a winning record against in the ACC. They are actually a decent team. Auburn only beat them by 3
 
I also brought up Clemson, same record as us and we beat them both times, yet they’re a 5 seed. College basketball is a joke if they are not using the eye test at all.
Clemson also beat Kentucky who Louisville lost to. Clemson also beat Duke who beat Louisville 2x this year.
