Wow SMU got hosed!

[pumpkinhead33793]

Had the same resume as Memphis and gets left out when Memphis got an 8.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

The joke is BYu getting a 10 and nc state getting in.

What a crock.

Now this idiot is saying SOS killed SMU? But what about minnesotas?

I wasn't expecting gophers in but the way this turned out is bullshit.

Minnesota tailed off the last two weeks.. They had a very good shot before then though..

 

[kramer1]

This really is a disgrace.

 

[olympicoscar]

SMU should have made it. NC State, no.

I guess you didn't watch SMU tail off at the end, either.

That being said, you can't have a top 25 team not make the NCAA's...

Several other closer teams probably didn't deserve to get in, but had SMU won a game down the stretch....

 

[kramer1]

SMU should have made it. NC State, no.

BYU, no as well.

 

[gobigred]

Things that killed SMU - RPI 55
SOS- 137
Non-conference SOS- 303
Bad losses to: Houston (RPI 143), Temple (RPI 180), South Florida (RPI 227)
14 wins of 23 vs RPI 150+

Wow SMU must be feeling HORRIBLE. I mean really they most of thought that they were almost guaranteed it.

If NCS didn't beat us Friday, SMU would have been, sorry fellas.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

BYU, no as well.

The fact BYu had 11 losses and only played gonzaga in conference and lost to them

Yet got a fucking 10? Then zags themselves only got a 8.

 

[kramer1]

UC beats NC ST. SMU beats UC. SMU doesn't get in and NC ST does?

Wacky.

Absolutely wacky. Those players must be crying, it's bullshit, they should have replaced BYU/NC state shit even a couple more teams if you want to get into it but the first two make it an easy case.

Seems like the committee gave more weight to some of the lower tier teams despite poor SOS, RPI, but yet uses that very excuse as to why some teams didn't get a better seed (UL) or didn't get in at all (SMU).

Hell, Xavier has a great RPI, SOS, and is in the playin game...yet BYU made it in flat? NC State? Etc....just wow.

Politics. It's all politics.

 

[Cincyfan78]

You just can't not invite a team that is ranked in the top 25...I mean, if you are picked as one of the top 25 teams in the nation then how can you NOT be selected to the NCAA?

 

[SteelersPride]

wasnt smu ranked like a week ago

 

[Malibu]

BYU, Xavier and N.C. State should not be in and UWGB and SMU should have been in.

 

[MI Nightmare]

There goes my longshot.

 

[CoolStoryBro]

Ranked 25 right now..

 

[CoolStoryBro]

They beat UCONN twice, Memphis, and Cinci.
