    Another screwjob
    Butler get the correct seed (6) and faces Texas as an 11 seed. A game in which Texas will be favored. Disgusting

    Kentucky gets the jokes that are West Virginia (25) and Maryland (33) as their 4 and 5 seeds. Not shocking

    Wichita gets a 7 seed as being an easy top 15 team. Another mid major screwjob

    Indiana gets in the tournament? Shocker

    Virginia gets paired with Michigan State again potentially. Horrible matchup for them. Funny stuff

    Utah as a 5 seed playing SF Austin who should be an 8 or 9 seed when Utah should be a 2, 3 at worst.

    UCLA in the tournament? Another big name GIVEN a bid

        of course, they are there to eliminate VCU who they properly seeded at least

                I refuse to do that, this is corruption at its finest destroying the hopes of teams that don't have the ability to provide big TV numbers and money

                          We just have no big men. Makes the team a lot worse. I do think we will beat VCU though.

                                Die hard UCLA fan and we did not deserve to be in tourney.
                                But i will say they have a really good Guard in Powell who will give SMU fits.

                                  Looking over things, I don't think Wichita State is as big a screwjob as some believe. Their RPI was good, but their SOS was poor. Both them and Northern Iowa, so if you want a little better seed, schedule better OOC. N.Iowa played VCU and that was before VCU was on the radar and nobody else. Wichita State played Utah and that was about it. They did play Memphis and Alabama, but both had down years so that did not help.

                                  Missouri Valley as a conference overall, incredibly weak RPI.

                                    Outside of UNI and Wichita, the Valley was absolute dogshit. That's not even debatable.

                                                  What are you basing this on? Who have they beaten away from SLC?

                                                    Eh missed that one & Iowa. Still, MVC killed them. MVC RPI as a conference was even way worse than last year when it was bad.

                                                    Just saying the categories we know they use make the seeds understandable albeit not popular. Kansas will be the one complaining most that Wichita got underseeded LoL

                                                      who cares? You don't play home or away games in the tournament anyway. Letting road wins take precedent is so brain numbingly stupid that I just give up.

                                                          Kentucky gets the jokes that are West Virginia (25) and Maryland (33) as their 4 and 5 seeds. NOT SHOCKING ONLY TOUGHER 4/5 COMBO IS ARKY/UNC SO NOTHING HERE

                                                          Wichita gets a 7 seed as being an easy top 15 team. Another mid major screwjob WRONG

                                                          Indiana gets in the tournament? Shocker

                                                          Virginia gets paired with Michigan State again potentially. Horrible matchup for them. Funny stuff NOTHING WRONG WITH THESE SEEDINGS. BASICALLY SAYING MSU IS A TOP 28 TEAM WHICH THEY AREN'T ANYTHING MORE THAN THAT.

                                                          Utah as a 5 seed playing SF Austin who should be an 8 or 9 seed when Utah should be a 2, 3 at worst. WRONG

                                                          UCLA in the tournament? Another big name GIVEN a bid

                                                            Arky? LMAO they should be a 7 seed for gods sake. Utah is a top 10 team, STFU. It happens with 6/11 all the time because the 6 seeds suck like Providence and Xavier, Butler is a respectable 6 seed and got screwed. How you don't think WSU is a top 15 team I'll never know
