We also couldn't get paired with Purdue...guessing Illinois lands in the 8/9 game in the Kansas region.Agree I personally think we were up to a nine but got shifted back as I’ve seen Iowa and Maryland as eights

You're really insufferable. As I said, you could state that a coin will land on heads 100% of the time, and when it lands on heads, think you were right all along. We obviously had a >0% chance of dancing with a loss on Thursday, and anyone that understands anything about the NCAA selection process/bracketology would back it up.We had no chance without a win--absolutely none as a 10 with 3 high profile wins proves. As I said all along--no matter what happened you'd refuse to acknowledge you were wrong. We could have been in a play-in game now and you'd still stand to the false belief we had any chance with a loss on Thursday
I have no idea what that is even supposed to mean (and it makes me question if you even really understand the process).We realize using the S curve we're the 3rd 10 seed even with some shuffling, right?
We had zero chance as this showed. We weren't getting over Pitt or Miss State to start with which I'm pretty sure you admitted prior.You're really insufferable.

Predictable. It's not a bad draw honestly10 seed vs A&m?? Tf is that????
And if we lost in the first round you think we'd have been higher than any of them?Wow...one of Rutgers, Providence, or USC will be out.
Just ignore him. There is no way to know so it’s a stupid argument. Penn State is in the dance and that’s all that mattersI have no idea what that is even supposed to mean (and it makes me question if you even really understand the process).
That is all that matters. With a great draw.Just ignore him. There is no way to know so it’s a stupid argument. Pen. State is in the dance and that’s all that matters
Or we weren't in even for sure after the first win?Apparently our last two wins in the tournament meant nothing…the committee waited long enough for us to win the first game then put us in as a #10 in ink.
Sad it’s in Iowa. Was hoping for an eastern region so would get a big turnout in the crowd. Won’t be much in Iowa.I like the matchup with A&M...tough team to face, but they've got a very small backcourt. They make a living getting to the line, so that will be a key for us. Will need to throw a lot of bodies at Marble.
I doubt that, but wouldn’t be surprised. They try to make it all about numbers, but perception still carries a ton of weight (obviously).Or we weren't in even for sure after the first win?
Look at us agreeingI doubt that, but wouldn’t be surprised. They try to make it all about numbers, but perception still carries a ton of weight (obviously).
Yeah, very tiring hearing the same damned thing over and over. And him always telling everyone he is always right.Just ignore him. There is no way to know so it’s a stupid argument. Penn State is in the dance and that’s all that matters
Yes, I want to hear myself talkYeah, very tiring hearing the same damned thing over and over. And him always telling everyone he is always right.
Don’t engage with him and let him talk to himself all he wants.
And I’m not sure how Kentucky ended up a 6 seed with their only good wins being over other SEC teams.Seems that the committee did not think the big 12 and Big Ten were as good as everybody else did. Looks like the ACC, who many thought it was very poor this year, got more teams that anyone expected as well.
Agreed--I think we (and others) overvalued the Big Ten especially.Seems that the committee did not think the big 12 and Big Ten were as good as everybody else did. Looks like the ACC, who many thought it was very poor this year, got more teams that anyone expected as well.
Seems as if name and history overrides season record.Seems that the committee did not think the big 12 and Big Ten were as good as everybody else did. Looks like the ACC, who many thought it was very poor this year, got more teams that anyone expected as well.
Did the ACC get more than expected? Seems like they matched up exactly with what most were selecting.Seems that the committee did not think the big 12 and Big Ten were as good as everybody else did.

I had seen/heard that neither Pitt nor NC St would be in via some people. Also UNC and Clemson being the next 4 shows they were a bit higher than originally thoughtDid the ACC get more than expected? Seems like they matched up exactly with what most were selecting.
The one big surprise was Nevada getting in over Rutgers...makes you wonder how much the Mag injury played into things (well, and the Q3 losses).
NC St was in 97/112 on the matrix, and Pitt 73/112. There were still a few with Clemson/NC in too, but not many. I’d say the ACC went pretty much exactly as expected.I had seen/heard that neither Pitt nor NC St would be in via some people.

BS - that is what.10 seed vs A&m?? Tf is that????
