    Look at middle tenn's resume. They are probably a drake-type team at best. Their inclusion was unprecedented. Every valley team plays a far tougher schedule than they did with just the conference games.
    It's complaining....you mentioned there wasn't a lot of that going on amoungst the iowa nutballs. Their exclusion would have actually been unprecedented. A 28 win team has never been left out.

        You are correct. It was Davis who made that comment.

                  What is predictible? That there is a lot of hawkize hate?

                    You do remember that he found nothing wrong with the hawk trolls that came on to PN to talk smack to us after the game this year.

                    His schtick is pathetic. Defend defend defend his real favorite team, and then tell people that they are stupid when they call him on it.

                    The simple fact is that iowa did not deserve a bid. mad fran scheduled the way he did because he was trying to get w's. It worked, yay.

                    They had the easiest of the b1g schedules, and mad fran showed repeatedly that he has no clue how to close out games. See playing mccabe the last 10 minutes of the mich st game friday. He was more concerned about throwing a meaningless temper tantrum than coaching the game while his team melted down.

                    If i were a hawk fan like said person and his flunkies, I would worry more about the fact that mad fran got his ass outcoached repeatedly during crunchtime.

                          I am more upset for teams like Virgina (who I know had some bad losses) but they also had 7 top 50 wins. I mean they beat Duke for crying out loud and they get bumped to the NIT.

                          The final 4 teams all had 4 combined top 50 wins. Virgina had 7, Iowa had 4, Maryland had a few. It just goes to show that the committee this year really favored the non-conf schedule and who you lost to, not who you beat. Jay Bilas said it best, "its not who you beat, its who you lost to, and that's not right."

                          It will be an interesting tournament no clear cut favorite, but some of the match-ups they made are mind boggling. New Mexico & VCU have the easiest roads to the final four.

                            it is completely ridiculous that the out-of-conference schedule is viewed differently than the in-conference schedule. a team like MTSU gets in because they played a whopping 3 BCS schools, beating one at home and one on the road. guess what? your average BCS team plays EIGHTEEN of those games. even the typical MVC schedule is twice as hard as that. the average RPI of their conference games was over 200!

                              This could all be fixed if teams played fairly equal schedules.

                              Every team plays approximately 12 non-con games. Take out exempt tournaments and you have 8 or 9 dates that you have control over. Every team should be required to play 4 of those dates on the road or at neutral sites, with at least two being true road games. That somewhat evens out the whole system.

                              Though we know there is too much money involved for this to ever happen.

                                the selection committee has always rewarded playing a tough non-conference. You schedule tough games, you get rewarded. Would have been nice to get a win or two for UNI
