It’s like all these idiots did was look at conf standings, even though that’s not a factor, i’m really blown away by how much BS this is

[Hovadipo]

Can’t wait to beat Wyoming (this is actually hilarious in BTB terms) then immediately fly out to Portland! That should be good for us!

[RaceToTheTop]

Dayton being first time out is a joke.  They shouldn't have been anywhere near.

[Blackmon_for_3]

We got in.we can beat anyone I’m confident of that. One game at a time.

So if Texas A&M had won today, we might not have been in.

Unreal.

Need to see true seed list to answer that

Why have NET and efficiency if someone like Rutgers can get in?  Hell, why have wins and losses?  Just play six good games and you are in.

Like I’ve wrote repeatedly, less than 25% of the committee members could explain you NET…or Kenpom or sagrin for that matter. It’s for the fans. 
 

They obviously factored in conference record heavily.

Oh, wait, it's because non-conference SOS.

Except Rutgers SOS was absolute **** and they were seeded ahead of us despite two less wins.

Glaringly obvious that conference tournament performance doesn't mean jackshit.

 

*hottake*  lol

Prayers needed for my wife who will be with me watching live.  Lol.  So much for a relaxed First 4

Wouldn't that have to be the case if IU/Wyoming are the 12 and Rutgers/Notre Dame are the 11?  I know there is a conference rule, but that would have to involve either Wyoming or Notre Dame with conflicts since Indiana and Rutgers are both in the same conference.

I’ve been told that’s a conspiracy theory.

As a friendly reminder, it’s located in Indianapolis 40 minutes from Bloomington - how do we get slighted?

The only thing I can think of is our non conference schedule being cupcakes. 
 

But jeez. 

[Josh]

Last year a play in team made the Final Four.  This year it'll be us.

Also **** this Tom Burnett guy

They have to look impartial so they have to dump all over us.  It's the Dan Dakich rule.

[RaceToTheTop]

Really want to hear what the first four order was.  If IU was last, that means a Texas A&M win would have kept us out.  If we were first, that would mean that the Davidson loss kept us from a bye.
