    It's the exact reason why BYU and SDST won't be predicted to go far in the NCAA Tournament and why they won't go very far in the tournament.
    same bullshit i hear every year and then 2 MVC teams go sweet 16, and one to the elite 8. Many small schools do well in the tourney. BYU a very fine team and can't beat anyone when one of best players in nation pours in 40 pts. You guys give the same reasoning every year, yet every year we have cinderellas going deep in the tourney and Kansas's bowing out in round 2.

    like i said earlier, im not saying they can't make some noise in the tourney just simply saying they don't deserve an easier route to the sweet 16 than many other teams who are proven...

    Didn't BYU have a real nice team last year and got bounced early? I like BYU and SDSU and would like to seem them both go deep in the tourney. I just don't think they will. I think BYU does have a better shot.

    How much of the Big East hype every year is because ESPN sits in Connecticut? 11 of 68 teams. Lets see how they finish up.

    East Coast Bias...SDSU, BYU, UNLV could hang in the Big East. They would all get better as they year went by, just like the teams in the Big East. Ah except Louisville...

    23-27 Wins

    BYU when they had their best rebounder(Davies) was easily a top 5 team and SDSU easily top 10 team.

    You are correct in thinking they are not that great of teams, but there really is no great teams this year and those two teams would easily have competed in the big east but definitely would have 3-5 more losses too. If they did play in the big east they would also be a lot better now, as you get better playing better opponents. Luckily they don't or you would really be wrong when they both ended up in the final 4.

    U mad bro?

    Last time I checked Florida/UNC weren't Big East either. Guess letting in the whole division wasn't good enough for you, all I know if there isn't at least 3 big east teams in the final 4 your an idiot.

    Neither of them would have lost to Moorehead St. so being 1 seed higher than 4(Louisv.) seems quite appropriate. Fade them on the ML. You also seem to forget BYU lost it's 2nd best player, kind of a big deal. I might see an argument for cincy but who else should be higher than them? WV, Really? Go look at their losses again lol. SJ just lost to Gonzaga who SDSU already beat. And Louisiville, yeah, Maoorehead St.

    So what exactly is your argument? Do you have one?

    Looks like some teams didn't realize that getting to the tournament is only half the job.

    They would probably just have one loss each, to eachother. Big Least is overrated.
