Selection Sunday Thread

[ShockerDropOut]

Head of the selection committee said WSU was the most discussed. It came down to wins against top 50 teams.

Get the F*** out of this conference.

FYI: Illinois State is a 1 seed in the NIT.

Play UC Irvine in the first round. If/when they win, they'll play UCF or Colorado.

Welp, this tourney is f*cked.

Beautiful

That was a very good rant. An it was absolutely correct!

[Shock Top]

Disrespect by the committee, but not by anyone else?!

You would think at some point the committee would listen.

[XManCometh]

We did last year too.

This is all one big repeat. All the talk; all the storylines; everything.

Yea, it's like Groundhog Day. But without Bill Murray. And laughter.

Irvine is horrendous and UCF/Colorado are not great. ISUr should have a decent shot at a run.

Everyone: "No way they could possibly disrespect WSU anymore this year, than they have in the past!"

Committee: "Hold my beer."

Let’s not merely ***** about this for 14 hours then let it die on the vine, turning attention to the games forthcoming. We can do both: We can be eager about the tournament and bothered by its structural flaws. The bracket’s integrity has been compromised before we’ve even played a game. We know the committee cares about this. But let’s hold those 10 members accountable, let’s seek thorough answers for how it could have messed this up so badly

[BikeIdiot]

So a biased irrelevant metric. Gotcha

I guess teams are expected to lose a NBA backcourt and have it figured out by game 2 of the next season.

Irvine is horrendous and UCF/Colorado are not great. ISUr should have a decent shot at a run.

First game is on ESPNU on Wednesday at 9:30pm Eastern.

If they keep winning they'll play one of:

Utah, Boise St, Illinois, Valpo.

Wichita State: We're 30-4, won 15 straight, ranked Top 20 in AP and Coaches Poll, ranked Top 10 in KenPom!

Vanderbilt: We're 19-15 and lost to Bucknell + Mizzou!

Committee: WSU a 10-seed; Vandy a 9-seed

I want to see ISUr vs UCF. UCF has a 7'6" shotblocking/altering monster and is the #1 defensive FG% team in the country.

Yes, we're the 'Wichita State Ramblers'.

Don't let anyone tell you anything different.
