So of course, the committee puts us and Michigan St in the same bracket. Would've much rather have had Xavier or Oklahoma as the 2 seed in the region instead of Michigan State.
It is what it is. If we can't beat a team like MSU in the elite 8, then we aren't championship material anyway.

Strength of schedule is the reason. Whether it's right or not.

Maybe St Bonaventure as well. Had a much higher RPI than Syracuse (30 for them and 68 for Syracuse). Regardless, no way Tulsa should've been in.

Just curious. Who should have been in instead of Syracuse? Just want your opinion. Thanks.

I would have taken a good mid major team instead of average middle of the pack power 5 team that really doesn't have a good resume. I would have taken Monmoth, St Bonaventure, San Diego State, Maybe even St Mary's or South Carolina over Cuse or Tulsa

Syracuse beat St. Bonaventure.

More than 1 game season and game was in November. Teams have changed in last 4 months. It's about overall resume and not one game in November

Reward teams that don't play anyone. South Carolina beat noone out of conference. Syracuse beat St. Bonaventure, S.D. State possibly and St. Mary's after Gonzage beat noone.

San Diego played solid OOC, I believe top 10 so at least challenged themselves. I agree South Carolina OOC SOS killed them and St Mary's played nobody OOC on road.

Then we do agree. Sorry but I'm easily confused.
