MWC and USU got the shaft

A bigger tragedy than the MWC's 3 bids is that the Pac-10 got 4. USC lost badly to TCU!!!!!! Any team those loses to TCU should not be dancing, period, end of story.



And the SEC did not deserve to half its teams get bids, when the conference was pretty weak.



UNLV should have got a 6 seed. USU should have got a 7 or 8. But the committee did USU a favor by giving them a good shot to win -- most 5/12 matchups are very competitive and this one should let USU have a chance at a Sweet 16.



SDSU could easily make the Final Four (given that the Aztecs can only lose to BYU....)



And as for BYU....I really like the SE bracket. BYU should be able to make a make the Sweet 16 and even the Elite 8 is not that big of a problem.

That's insane...

Given Colorado State's out of the NIT after one home loss, it shows they were pretenders this season.



Had NM not lost to :utard: twice and Wyoming, they would have gotten a bid. They only have themselves to blame. And at least they won their first round game.

I agree, but the mwc can suck it. I hope they struggle with BYU gone...After this summer I will wish them the best, when my school is no longer held down by their small and insignificant chains.

CSU cannot make an argument to be included, particularly when Colorado and Va Tech were left out. They didn't have quality wins



UNM has some big time wins (us) but they have enough bad losses, that again, they don't have an argument when you compare them to Colorado or Va Tech, who were also left out.



I do agree that USU should have gotten a better seed, however, that loss to idaho is really really ugly.



USC had no business in the field, but again it should have been Colorado, St Marys, or Va Tech.



The other 3 pac 10 teams that got in all have crappy seeds, due to the amount of losses the have, but they all have tournament caliber teams.

Nope. USC lost to VCU.



Virginia Commonwealth. I'm very happy about it too.
