    Re: Bracketology = bcs

    What did Colorado, Alabama, or Michigan St do outside of conference that was so great. If Missouri St could play some big name teams at HOME maybe they could win some of those games.

    The big 10 crapped their bed on New Years Day but some will still say how great that conference is in football.

    I just think the little guy should get more of a chance. Look at the NCAA last year and the runs made by the little guy. In football teams from the non-AQ's went 4-2 in bowl games against teams from the AQ's including TCU beating what some said was the hottest team in football. Missouri St WON their conference so give them a chance.

    Michigan St was suppose to be a top 5 team this year and they have looked like **** but give them a chance because they deserve it so much. This is the reason why I don't care about the NCAA as much as before.

    Just to let you know in the past I have gone to NCAA sites to watch games not just UNI (though I saw UNI last year) but I'm not going this year and I will not miss it at all.

      Its the entire resume. If your conference stinks, youd better show something out of conference. MSU didnt. UNI and WSU got home BB games and failed, hurting MSU's resume.

      Your football point is completely irrelevant.

      The little guy does get a chance. Indiana State did very little all year, and they are in the tournament. Plenty of non-BCS teams will get in. If they don't lose, they can win the National Championship.

      If you don't care about the NCAA tournament that much, so be it, but it seems to be doing fairly well.

        So the big 10 can crap the bed on New Years Day and still be a great football conference and the MVC can crap the bed on BB and be a bad conference. I guess you are right my football point was irrelevant.

        I never said I didn't care about the NCAA tournament I just don't want to spend the money I used to on the tournament. I don't care to spend money to see Michigan St play Kentucky when I can see that same game on TV all year. I want to see Missouri St play Kentucky since that rarely happens.

          Honestly, what in the world are you talking about? You aren't even within miles of making a point with your football comparison. The B10's perception took an absolute beating nationally on New Years Day.

          I want to see UNI play Duke in the Final Four. That doesn't mean UNI deserves a bid.

            If you want to look at the entire resume the rpi right now says Missouri St as a better resume then Michigan St.

              Minnesota has a better RPI than Indiana State.

                No offense to anyone who really cares, but Missouri State doesn't deserve an at-large... at all. Neither does Witchita. Sure they were 1-2 in the conference but who did they beat? The Valley is WAY down this year, but I don't anticipate that lasting long.

                      Let me be the first to congratulate Michigan St on making the NCAA tournament and saving what was a **** season for them._

                          MSU in no way deserves a bid. They beat no one, they have some really bad losses, and they won a pitiful league. End of story.

                            With your amazing knowledge of college basketball I will have to agree with you. I know it's right up there with your knowledge of college football. You can look it up but 2 years ago when UNI lost to SDSU you and everyone else said the playoff hopes of UNI was over since 3 teams would not go from the pitiful MVFC. I said if they win out they will make it. They were a second away from doing that and making it to the playoffs that year.

                            I still say MSU is not in the no way deserves a bid category . Will they make it? Probably not but they are still in the discussion.

                            I will still bow down to your greatness and say this about watching more great big 10 teams play this year like yesterday..
