If Louisville got a four seed, we might get a six.....

I've seen a lot of people saying UC dropped to a 5th...

I think at this point I'd rather be a 6th.

 

[Cincyfan78]

Also, they just gave UL one of the easiest roads...good god..

Manhattan

SLU/playing

Whichita may not even make it to face UL...

 

[bengaldoug]

Well, we are in the East, anyway, by default............

 

[Cincyfan78]

Umass as a 6 seed?!

HAHAHAHA

What was this committee smoking?!

 

[bengaldoug]

Wow, tough fucking draw.......

 

[cincygrad]

LOL!

A 5 seed.

Travel to Spokane.

Play MSU if we're lucky enough to beat Harvard.

Maybe I should have continued to avoid this season.

 

[Cincyfan78]

Rough draw, seems like they really loaded up 2 sections of the bracket, and then totally blew off the other 2 sections.

 

[cincygrad]

SMU left out.

Louisville a 4

Committee hates the AAC.

Another round of 32 exit. Our first game will probably start at midnight eastern too.

MSU will beat us like a drum.

 

[kramer1]

...and we're not losing to fucking Harvard. Just stop.

We'll beat them by 20.

Agreed, and agreed, but you know what...compared to what I thought about this team before the season...I'll take it.

I didn't even have them in the NCAA's before the season started. Hell, I don't know anyone that actually thought this team would end up ranked at any point in the season, let alone top 15 for most of the 2nd half.

 

[bengaldoug]

If I could have picked the one team to avoid in the second round, it would have been Mich St. We should start now.

Worst draw of the tourney. I'd rather play Florida in the round of 32.

 

[bengaldoug]

How does SMU not get in?

 

[kramer1]

How does SMU not get in?

I have no idea. It's bullshit.

[Cincyfan78]

The committee will cite poor SOS, OOC, RPI, etc...but none of that seemed to matter for teams like Nc State or BYU.

Hell, XU is better than all 3 of those teams in terms of RPI, SOS, and got stuck in Dayton.

Agreed, we turned out much better than I expected, but there appears to be no year end reward for these guys. More like a punishment. The bottom of the AAC really hurt the top five teams. In the future if we are going to stay in this conference, which is soon to be weakened considerably by Louisville's departure, we are going to have to upgrade the non conference schedule.
