    Re: Who wants to play in Carver next week?

    I love Seth Davis and Doug Gottlieb.

    The committee awarded touch non-conf scheduling. Iowa, Marland, Kentucky, and Tennessee all played awful non-conf schedules.

    I think this is very funny that one year after Iowa stopped the UNI series in order to free up more "scheduling freedom" they are snubbed because of their schedule.

      And true to form... I've already got an Iowa-fan friend complaining about not getting in and wondering why other teams did.
      "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

        So you're saying they watched the selection show actually thinking that Iowa had a realistic possibility of making the tournament?

          Sounds like it.

            The committee spoke loud and clear this year. If you play a bunch of OOC cupcakes, you won't be getting the benefit of the doubt.

              They've done if for a few years in a row now too. I'm glad, its the way it should be. Rewarding those BCS teams that rack up garbage wins with a ton of cupcake home games is horrible.

              Its also kinda depressing for us because of how good our schedule was, we were probably only a couple wins away from getting in to this tournament. Win at least 1 in Atlantis, win 2 or 3 of those flukey Indiana losses we had and we are probably on the right side of the bubble.

                  Gottlieb said this yesterday on live TV: "I have Iowa as the last team in" and the other three guys on the panel laughed out loud! Looks like Doug was wrong but it was funny. If Greg Anthony would have been taking a drink it would have been one of those spit yout drink out moments.

                    It's hillarious that Iowa fans watched that and actually thought they had a chance to get selected. Prepare for a week of butt hurt hawk fans. Hopefully it distracts them enough that they lose their first nit game.

                      Didn't Goettlieb get recruited by McCaffery at Notre Dame? Sound more like a shout out to an old friend than a realistic prediction.

                        He either got embarrassed or is a liar. On the telecast I'm pretty sure he said he had all the teams who got in correct.

                          It's a good thing Iowa dropped the Drake game so they could pick up a critical win against Texas A&M Community College. They obviously gained a lot of respect with the committee.

                            He did say that he predicted them all and followed it up by saying something cocky like "it's not a coincidence either."

                              Is it asking this board to think above the media drivel too much or what?

                              Iowa could have still scheduled cupcakes and made the tourney. This isn't hard to understand. They just needed to schedule 200-rpi teams instead of 300-rpi types. Also, playing uni in dsm was a net gain over playing at carver as originally scheduled.

                              So quit playing the butthurt card "that'll learn em!" card because it simply doesn't apply here.
