Selection Sunday Thread

[H2S]

epic dirtbag snub on Izzo, his great squad and Spartan Nation...
sure am glad we killed ourselves playing our hearts out these last three days & winning the fucking B1G Tourney...
take the trophy and jam it up the Selection Committee's ass...
and take that snub out on everybody who gets in our way.

go green!

Pretty sad that Vanderbilt got a spot. And Wichita as an 11 is criminal. #11 overall in KenPom. Sucks that either them or Arizona, who are both top 16 teams, will go home after Round 1.

Obviously the committee doesn't value KP all that much, that said Vandy's solid KP # probably got them in, they don't really have anything on their resume, same with WSU.

That's right about where they should be in regards to Zona. I was debating Cal as a 4/5. Went with a 5 but not surprised they are a 4 seed, probably ahead of Duke or Purdue if I had to guess.

I'm just saying, if Oregon is a 1 seed, and Cal a 4 you'd think they are high on the Pac. When I saw Cal at 4 I thought for sure we'd be a 4-5 seed.

PLUS, they put us in the toughest play-in game probably of all-time.

And now they're interviewing coaches lol

Seriously

Vanderbilt???

Somewhere Vandy's only CBB fan (Hammer) is celebrating.

I've seen every Pac12 team multiple times. Outside of Colorado, I've probably seen all the Pac 12 tourney teams for at least four full games and any time that I notice they are close late.

Time will tell, but I feel pretty good about my prediction the P12 will crash and burn. With Arizona's draw, I think it's likely that only 1 team (Oregon) survives next weekend, and even you all aren't a given.

Committee gave us shitty match ups. It has more to do with that and less to do with the conference.

Last year you probably said the same thing about the Pac, yet they dominated the first weekend. And this year the conference is stronger as a whole.

Cal definitely had the better resume of the two. Not surprised at all by any of the seeds thus far.

Gamecocks are going to get shut out, looks like. That loss to UGA other night (3rd time this season) was a backbreaker. Still, we beat Vandy, had a better record.

 

[NinersFan80]

worst selection show ever

 

[Cave_Johnson]

God dammit they really want to stretch this shit out don't they?

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

13 losses
RPI=60
SOS = 43
2 wins in the top 50 (both at home)
3 losses outside the top 100
(7-5) down the stretch including a first round loss

That is a tissue soft bubble team.

 

[SFGRTB]

Ughhhhhhhhh, they're going to interview and breakdown every bracket before the announce the next one

 

[Wamu]

Shut the fuck up Chuck & get back to announcing the brackets!

 

[ralphiewvu]

This shit sucks

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Dude, I don't give a fuck what Charles fucking Barkley thinks.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

This is fuckig embarrassing.

Guy is a baboon

 

[Cave_Johnson]

This show is only scheduled for 2 hours because they knew it would take Charles Barkley 40 minutes to figure out how to make his predictions on the board.

 

[michaeljordan_fan]

Why did they not rehearse the video screen?

 

[SteelersPride]

I just really don't get. Iowa (#20 in KP) is closer to Oregon (#9) than Oregon is to Michigan State (#2). And as for those five top 25 wins...they are over teams that are nowhere near top 25 in talent besides Arizona, and those games were dogfights.

so they are in the top 25 but not top 25 talent>? huh?
