When they won the WAC Tournament, I hoped the committee would send they our way.


Same. I like them

That's because the Big10 sucks.

Bama not even first four out.

Sucks for Kentucky.

The committee owed NC State a bid after they got screwed last year.

apparently the committee focused considerably on series wins.

A&M won series from 5 teams in the field:

LSU, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Vandy, and Georgia -- 4 on the road

No they didn't. Thought for sure Maryland would be a Top 8 seed. Really surprised Rutgers did not get in when Michigan won the B1G Tourney.

Was just about to post this.

The way we won led to our national seed.

Will Oral Roberts throw their ace in Game 1 or will they look at the A&M game as a probable loss and save him for the game against the 2/3 loser?

Would be a weird strategy, but they may not want to wasted their one "sure win" against the #1 seed.

Outside of auto bids, the tourneys are pointless

Also talking about incongruity between RPI and other metrics this year. I'm still legit shocked they veered so far away from chalk RPI but kudos to them for looking deeper into the data.

Dallas Baptist made it on strength of schedule

The deciding factor as a bubble team for the Wolfpack should have been last June's COVID Omaha snafu. Feel so bad for them.

Throw the ace to try to get in the winner's bracket. They don't have the depth to fight out of the loser's bracket

And since there are no MVC teams in Austin, they'll do just fine this weekend,

Committee Chair just said the rewarded DBU and other mid majors that scheduled tough non conference games.

Yeah, that makes sense, but I was hoping!

I bet they throw their ace and try to use him as long as possible. I'm sure they think they can win it. And taking a loss in the 1st game really puts you in a hole

I meant UCLA will come out of Auburn.
All or none. FIDO.

still can't believe Ole Miss made it.

series wins vs. Auburn and LSU were the reasons

Hell no. If you want to win a regional as a four seed, you've got to win those first two games, and force the big boys to play an extra game to beat you. You can't concede game 1.

Sounds like this committee actually gave a **** and looked into legit justification for their choices, unlik the bull**** the bball committee pulled.

This sounds vaguely familiar.... I've heard this happening to someone else this year.

Dollars to donuts they throw their ace. The winner's bracket is too valuable in the regional setup. While the law of averages usually plays out in a series, you don't concede a single game in baseball. Anything can happen.

Impressed with that Army AD. You may not agree with his answers, but he was completely candid and factual with his interview.

Was that one of the first times the committee chair had direct answers to every question?

I had an epic thread that was going troll the TCU fanbase with some major jimmy rustling and TAMU22. I'm sad to find out that that texags has the rickroll url blacklisted.

Can we get this Army AD on the football or basketball selection committees? A guy who actually answers questions and seemed to know particulars about the teams in question. So refreshing

No cake walk for the Ags. ORU is a tough "out."

He also has a world series championship ring. He knows baseball.
