8bucks Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Looks like all but A&M have a better big win than us. Quote
Scooter D Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Called it. Our poor SOS, bad losses and poor showing in the BTT killed IU. Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Needed 2 wins in BTT to solidify our resume. Class of '66 Old Fart 1 Quote
Hoosiers219 Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 If IUs the top 5 seed, how are they not in Midwest instead of Purdue? Defenserocks28 and Kepner 2 Quote
Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 I thought the committee really sucked this year. Not just based off us being a 5 either. A lot of questionable seedings, but when you look close it sets up a lot of high ratings games and extra money which is what they look for most sadly. JaybobHoosier and Kepner 2 Quote

Bowhunter Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 We got hosed! We should be at least a 4. I don't have a problem with UK as a 4 but they should be head of a&m. Virginia should be a 2. MSU should be a 1. Winning the Big ought right is not a 5 seed no matter how hard you try. Maryland and Iowa were top 10 teams all year along with Purdue top 15. Total BS on our whole conference. I was really upset with losing to Michigan, but I never expected this. We got absolutely no credit for beating teams by 25 to 30 points throughout the year. Too much stock is put into the conference tournament! cjvz20 1 Quote

Too much stock is put into the conference tournament! It wasn't just the conference tourney. PAC12 and ACC got a lot of love. I guess the B1G actually lost the B1G/ACC Challenge in the end. Don't get me wrong, I think the PAC12 was a good conference this season but I'm not sure they deserved 7 teams seeded as high as they were. Cal got a 4 seed? Too many losses and not a great OOC. They had 0 OOC wins against tourney teams. JaybobHoosier 1 Quote
Bowhunter Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Yep! How about tge committee cutting us some slack for winning without key players or losing at the last second with the same beat up team? I just wish they wouldn't have given UK a chip on their shoulder too. Calipari will motivate his troops as well. I saw us as a final four team , at least elite 8. This is a tough draw starting with Chattanooga. Quote
HoosierRob Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 I honestly think the committee under seeded IU and uk to play each other. Call me crazy. Alford Bailey and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote
Alford Bailey Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 I honestly think the committee under seeded IU and uk to play each other. Call me crazy. Its becoming a made for tv thing. They are gonna ruin it. mdn82 and southsidehoosier 2 Quote
CrossboneIU22 Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 According to the rankings released by the committee, we should be in the South bracket as the #1 5 seed. Purdue should be in the East, Maryland in the Midwest and Baylor in the West. Quote
USMCHoosier Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 I'm not going to complain about our seeding. We laid an egg vs. Michigan. We had no business losing that game. We literally snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. A lot of selfish play in that game. Not nearly enough kick outs to get the 3 game going. A lot of forced action. Maybe that was game plan? If so, it was a horrible plan. You have to put teams away. Alford Bailey, Class of '66 Old Fart and WayneFleekHoosier 3 Quote
