NCAA Tourney Selection Hatin

[districtballer]

I'm just going on what I've seen the Selection Committee do in the past. Last year Siena earned a 9-seed in the tournament despite 0 wins against top-50 teams outside of conference play.

...and they won a game and took a #1 seed to the wire.

I never said Siena wasn't deserving, I was simply going by seeding.

In 2006, George Washington went 27-2 in the regular season and still only got an 8 seed despite having a top-10 ranking in both polls. Why? Their non-conference schedule was pathetic. Neither of their losses were as bad as Virginia Tech's losses to NC State and Boston College.

Ahh... ok I see what you were doing.

The selection committee said they werent going to reward teams playing cupcakes out-of-conference. We'll see. I myself see nothing special about VPI but there are a lot of down teams this year nationally.
