@T3Bracketology @mttlnrd Did they play EACH OTHER? 🤔 No? Why not? Did they try to Create a New Confernce of just the Best Mid Teams? 🤔 No? Why not? Why won't they DO what would FIX their schedules? 🤔 Why do they just 😭?

@mttlnrd This is not true or backed by any fact. All of those schools tried to schedule better and were rejected. This happens every year

All that today has shown me so far is that we need a system that gets teams like UNCW, Yale, Belmont, SFA, etc more of a shot at an at-large bid.

@WillardSmart @WestPineBills If the Small Schools weren't playing the Power Schools U wouldn't WATCH or CARE about the games The Proof being U don't watch them play their 30+ previous games 🤔 & The only reasons U wathx these games is bc they are playing P4 Teams U SAY shouldn't be IN 🤡

@WestPineBills Yeah that's the point. I'd rather watch some small schools get in and it's also fair to say that Miami OH didn't prove anything yet by beating SMU. Both can be true

Seeing power conference fans saying SMU isn’t good anyways and didn’t deserve to be in the field. It’s almost like….like sub-.500 power teams shouldn’t get at-larges?? Hmmmmm

The NCAA wants to expand the tournament so Wisconsin can lose to Auburn instead of High Point and Siena can never even get the chance to take a double-digit lead on Duke.

@HHHardwood YES That IS what America wants bc without those P4 Teams there are no MidMajor Wins that Casuals get off on & We all know NOBODY watches MidMajors play each other There is only 100 years of Evidence on that It's almost like NOBODY would be happy without those P4 Teams IN hmm

And don’t worry sub 500 SEC and Big 12 teams, the committee will find a way to rig the system further and get you in next year. That’s what America wants!!! Not High Point. Not VCU.

@Justin029578672 @CBBCountry They got good seeds, I would’ve put VCU higher. It’s the fact that the committee literally said they would’ve been left out if they didn’t win the A10. That’s ridiculous and should never be that close given how good of a resume VCU had

Wait so correct me if I’m wrong, but: -VCU and Miami Ohio wouldn’t win a single game in the ACC and -High Point wouldn’t win a single game in the Big 10 Correct? That’s what you’re saying? All games would be blowouts? That’s where the real competition is? Cupcake schedule?

@CBBCountry @Justin029578672 That’s the argument they bring up every single time a 25+ win mid-major gets compared to a .500 P5 team who is simultaneously about to get handed a 7 seed while on the verge of firing their coach. Good losses mean more than numerous wins against whoever will schedule you, right?

High Point went 30-4, hasn't lost since mid-January - and wouldn't have sniffed an at large bid Miami (OH) went undefeated in the regular season, finished 31-1 and ended up in Dayton We REALLY need to re-evaluate how we go about selecting at-large teams for the NCAA Tournament

@HoopsWeiss It would help if they got rid of the Wins Against Bubble metric. There is a definite bias against Mid Majors there.

this is a great endorsement for mid-major basketball. win or lose, Miami of Ohio showing they belong. red hawks making the game fun with style of play and multiple players who can shoot threes. hope the committee takes a longer look at mid-major teams who win regular season but lose in conference tournament in the future.

@JonathanJWagner @HoopsWeiss Didn't all of U say Teams that go .500 in Power 4 games Don't Belong in the NCAAT? So U R pounding your chest over beating a Team U SAID doesn't belong 🤡 If they don't beat Tennessee then MOH will also be a Team that goes .500 vs P4s that doesn't belong ACCORDING to U

@HoopsWeiss They showed they belonged for four months, but too many people didn't want to believe it simply because they're from the MAC. It's nice to see the Redhawks shut those people up on the big stage. And Tennessee better be ready, too.

Seriously. They let 68 teams into this thing. If you go *undefeated* in a regular season - even against mid-major or lesser competition - and you're still on the bubble? What are we doing? Wouldn't we rather see 31-0 Miami get a go than a 7th place ACC or 10th place SEC team?
Front Office Sports@FOS

Miami (Ohio) went a historic 31-0 in the regular season and was still a bubble team for March Madness. After leading the RedHawks to their first NCAA tournament game this century, head coach Travis Steele said: “We more than belong.”

@david_kenah @ChrisLongKSTP They just played the 11th best ACC team But 🤡s think a P4 team w 10 Conference Losses shouldn't get IN That "serious" fan base only had to Travel 40 minutes for basically a Home Game vs a Team that should be in the NIT according to 🤡s

@ChrisLongKSTP And as we saw last night they have a serious fan base and they’re fun to watch. So you can’t even make the argument that the 7th ACC team will be better for ratings.

XTC@Cyber_XTC·
@Aaron_Torres It's very simple. You limit the maximum number of bids from any league. Either arbitrarily (eg, you can only send 40% of your conference) or via conference records (if you're at or below 500, you don't qualify for the tourney).

@Aaron_Torres If you want a fairer system theythis: 1) if you finish under 500 in league play, you only get a bid if you win the conference tourney. 2) if you go undefeated in your conference, you get bid no matter what you do in the conference tourney 3) 25 regular season wins is an auto-bid

@operaman86 @Aaron_Torres Only Miami (OH) was selected. High Point was an AQ. He's saying HP wouldn't have been selected had they lost in their CT. With current scheduling, fewer and fewer mid majors will get selected even if they are a top team because they can never make up in metrics
