We would walk into the final four with that bracket.

KU has just as good of a case for a 1 seed as anyone else in the nation at this point in the season. But since you called them "The Flagship", you obviously have some deep hatred of them like most on here do, so I understand why you think they suck. I mean, they're 20-4 and they've lost 3 of their 4 games to KenPom top 17 teams. That's not bad.

I'd like to hear who you think should be a #1 seed. I bet I can poke holes in all their cases and it wouldn't be too difficult.

Anyway, there are going to be a lot of brackets busted no matter who is a 1 seed this year because there aren't any standout teams in college basketball. Everyone in the top 25 is basically interchangeable at this point.

Oklahoma State.

By 19.


I dunno if any potential #1 seed has that nice of a quality loss on the resume.

Monmouth was the last at large team to make their field. The mid major teams always get screwed and nearly did here as well. Win vs USC, win at G'Town, win vs Notre Dame, win at UCLA.

Ranked #32 in RPI, 2-2 vs top 50, 4-2 vs top 100, 3 losses to 201+ RPI teams. Ok I get it they lost 3 bad games but at least all 3 games were on the road. How many ACC, SEC, ect teams lose on the road to garbage teams and have high seeds ? Take my beloved Kentucky for example losing at Auburn and at Tennessee yet Kentucky is still a 5 seed. You can argue that Monmouth's 4 best wins are just as impressive as Kentucky's top 4 wins in fact more impressive. Kentucky lost at UCLA but Monmouth won there. Kentucky best win is neutral vs Duke. Monmouth won at USC which was a better win based on the S-Curve they provided.

So how in the F is Monmouth the last team in ??????????????????????? They should be a higher seed the crap the mid major's put up with is pure garbage. You get the huge wins and still they give you no credit.

Where is Chattanooga ? No where despite a 22-3 record when they were making this field (Yes they lost last night but they built this before that loss) so a 22-3 team that had an RPI around 30 last night and they won AT Dayton their 14th ranked team...wtf are they supposed to 24-1 to get in ?

Yet Oregon State is 36........and where is Valpo ? They won at Oregon State but I guess losing 4 games is too many for a mid major and Oregon State who wins basically only at home and on dumbass fouls from half court gets in and not only gets in but gets an FN 9 seed WTF ?

Apparently I jinxed Monmouth...lose to Rider ? Unbelievable.

Or you just jinxed the jinx.

Monmouth was down 12 with 3+ minutes left and stormed back, hitting a 3 with 3 seconds left to unbelievably win 79-78.

Wow.........I can't believe they won that game........I actually turned the game off at 76-64 with 3 minutes left and I was watching the CBS score page it was sitting on 76-68 with like 2 minutes left then all of a sudden it jumped to 76-76 with 40 seconds left and I was like wtf and turned it back on to see Rider score to lead 78-76 then I seen that step back 3 for the win.

Monmouth needed that one you can't lose to a team as bad as Rider.

Tourney or bust now. Can't believe Fred and Rons senior year has come to this.

No. As long as we don't lose few more. Right now looking like 8-10 seed.

I don't see it. Hanging out hat on 1 good win. And who honestly thinks we won't loose at least on more with the way we are playing.

[fansince80s]

Not a good time for s 17-8 NMST make up game. Everyone wanted the makeup. Hope it don't bite us in the end.

Well when Fred and Ron play like ass, that's what happens.

[AndShock]

There is a huge drop off once you get to the 10 line. We are still fine. We can lose one more in the regular season and I still think we're good, but I wouldn't feel great about it.

ANY projection that assumes we win out cannot be considered accurate at this point in time. We have regressed to the point that every single game is a potential loss. The flip-side of saying we are in if we don't lose a few or is that we are out if we don't finish almost perfectly.

Just quit using "we", you are a joke and not a WSU fan
