Let the Bubble Burst....

[elnutsmalljaws]

We had bubble snubs when the tournament was 64, had them when it was 65 and now have them when it is 68 teams. We will have bubble snubs when there is 96 teams and probably some Division 2 teams throwing a fit when they let every Division 1 Basketball team in the tourney. Colorado, Virginia Tech, Alabama and others that are kicking and screaming had NO SHOT at winning the title and only a small shot at winning a first round game. VCU and UAB should not have gotten in the tourney. But Florida should not have gotten a 2 seed, Pitt should not have gotten a 1 seed and so forth...

Let the games and the smack talk begin......I will fire the first couple of shots


Big East getting 11 teams and Big Ten getting 7 teams is a JOKE!!!!

Pitt rated above Duke, JOKE

George Mason will give Ohio State all they want and then some in round 2

Oakland will give Texas all they want in round 1

ODU wins at least 1 game and maybe 2

Belmont drills Wisconsin in the first round, Big Ten will be down to the Big 2 then

Morehead State will give Louisville all it wants, Kenneth Farried for Morehead is a MANCHILD first round draft choice in the NBA

How is Florida a 2 seed and Kentucky a 4 seed when UK beat them 2 out of 3 and the loss was by 2 points. Not saying UK needed to be higher but certainly Florida should be lower.

Big East wins 5 first round games and Big Ten wins 3 first round games (maybe), losing record for both conferences in round 1







Somebody pinch me, Digger Phelps actually just said a few things nice about UK. What has ESPN done with "The Digger"? Would the real Digger please stand up?

Elwood, who would be your other #1 if it was not Pitt?

Notre Dame was more deserving than Pitt. Better RPI, better record against the top 50, at least ND won a game in their own conference tourney. Not only is Pitt a number 1 seed but they are the 3rd number 1 seed ahead of Duke. So I guess it is better to win the regular season BE title, lose the first game you play in the conference tourney than to finish second in the ACC then manhandle and destroy the UNC Tarheels in winning the ACC tourney championship.

I agree with it because Pitt won the regular season and that is much more about your entire season. Also, Notre Dame didn't win the conference tourney either. I think if Notre Dame had on the B.E.T. then they get the 1 seed and Pitt gets a two.

The thing that is even more stupid is that if Kansas is the "#2 Seed in the entire bracket" then that means Notre Dame is the #7 seed in the entire bracket since they are in the same division. Utah State is top 15 team in the country but an 11 seed does not make any sense. Really idiotic seeding and just outlines how stupid this committee is. Must be the same committee that determines the penalty for rules infractions.
