It's a hard pill to swallow that the 9th/10th ranked conference only gets 1 bid when the conference tournament literally couldn't have been played out any better. Top 4 seeds make it to the semis and the 1 vs. 2 play each other in the championship game.

Drake blew out Nevada at a "neutral site" game in Nevada.
Bradley beat Utah State

Are you really going to tell me that the MWC is that much better than the MVC?

Sorry Indiana State fans.

Virginia should not have been in. Even if it wasn't ISU they were the wrong selection.

McLelland is on ESPN now. Says there were only 2 bid thieves in the last 3 years combined (compared to 5 this year).

I think bid thieves should penalize their own conference. For example NC State getting in should have cost Virginia not ISU. if they can't beat the dregs of their conference in the tournament when they have all those opportunities they shouldn't be in. The MVC deserved 2 bids and I'm really upset. I'm not as mad at the committee as I would be in other years because of the horrible luck but ISU should have been in over a 54 NET Virginia.

For those who listen to Jerry Palm, he finished in the 200s again -- this time tied for 213th out of 226.

Virginia with 14 points at halftime. Turner Sports will love that.

The country’s #1 offensive efficiency team could’ve been playing tonight.
