Purdue Person Vitale actually has a point, and I'm about to head over to the Kentucky boards to see what they think.

 

Kentucky and Texas A&M split the regular season conference championship.

 

Kentucky wins the SEC tournament championship over A&M.

 

Yet, A&M gets the 3 seed and Kentucky a 4?  How does that work?

And if not for the technical at the end of the game at A&M they'd have beat them.

you said conference tournaments were important i pointed out examples and now u changed it to losing early in the conference tournaments. Kentucky beats a&m in the finals but yet Kentucky gets a 4 and a&m gets a 3


Can you not see the difference of losing an opening game of a tournament to a bubble team and losing in a title game against a 1 seed? There is a difference and is shows the importance of the conference tourney. People are just being bitter right now. The issue is Tom Crean pissing down his leg and not using his timeouts to stop the Mich run.

The UK IU is purely about $$$. If IU beats Michigan we are at least a 4 seed. IU makes the fina vs MSU and we are a 3 seed as a worst case. IU lost and left themselves exposed to the committee.

Absolutely ridiculous job by the committee

Just for the record, I never believed losing to Michigan didn't matter or that we didn't need to win. All I meant was that after the fact, it ain't worth going nuts over.

We got screwed. But it wasn't just that single game like you guys think. For some reason the committee went away from KenPom this year


The committee doesn't go by Kenpom, they use the RPI and have for years.

Did the same thing with potential aTm/Texas and Villanova/Temple matchups too
