Bubble Watch

I really thought we were in. How could we be so wrong as to not even be the first or last team in? These "analyst" all got it wrong as well.
 
Let the conspiracy theories begin...............

1) Football schools got favorite treatment?
2) Committee has a hard on for Pitino
3) Committee has never been favorable to SJU in general
4) Big East (arguable the best conference in the country) has terrible representation
 
New to the fourm, The one thing you have to remember is slick Rick will get no favors from the NCAA.

Anything close will go against him. They hate him since the problems at Louisville. Look at the match up they put him in at Iona last year. They made him play Uconn the one team iona could not match up against.

You guys will have a great team next year, he will get players, but remember the Ncaa loves to stick it to slick Rick.
 
Tierney said it well


The thing Tierney and a lot of guys here miss is that they are not clowns or morons on the committee; what they did was a travesty to the BE but they did exactly what they wanted to do and KNEW exactly what they were doing.
Well, maybe they are clowns! But just another concrete example that the CBB we all loved is Loooooooong gone!,
 
Go check out Michigan State. The two big wins are Baylor and Illinois. Played lots of others but they lost them.

James Madison L
Duke L
Arizona L
Wisconsin L2x
Nebraska L
Northwestern L
Illinois L 1/2
Minnesota L 1/2
Iowa L
Ohio St L
Purdue L 2x
Indiana L

Conference record 10-10
Does that read like a 9 seed? Comfortably in.?
Michigan State got in on rep and likely a handful of committee reps having an affinity towards Izzo.
 
SJU would be 3.5 point favs over UVA on a neutral.

SJU (25th) is the highest ranked team on KP to not make it this year
Guys on CBS Sports Network (Jerry Palm and Gary Parrish) were both surprised — both had SJ in field and said many others had us in field…Oh well…lesson learned…take care of your business and take it out of committee‘s hands
