If UVA had went 18-12 this year,they'd be in the NIT (Not Invited Tournament)
My wife really thought the NIT stood for Not In Tournament, when she said that one day with a serious look on her face I fell to the floor laughing.
Arizona made it in due to their active streak.
I had no problem with Kentucky making it. They were playing very good team ball down the stretch, even without Patterson. I think if the games had been played in the Ga Dome, Kentucky would have won their game. Their crowd is worth a couple points 9 out of 10 times. I do think VT got hosed, as they were playing pretty good ball down the stretch. That being said, if #0 goes up for a rebound with 2 hands, they beat NC and are in.
I kind of get what was said by Techs coach, when he was referencing expanding the field being equivalent to football. How many bowl games do we have now? We have more football teams that get rewarded at the end of the season than basketball.
Percentage wise yes, but not total.
I hate tech but they got robbed!
Only four teams!!! Thats a joke!!! FSU and VT should be in the tourney
FSU had a losing ACC record
there was no way they were going to get in
Still they where tough!!!
But they might have not deserved to make it, but Tech did!
I would've taken Tech over Miami. However, Miami finished with a better overall record. I think your out of conference play has a lot to do with where you end up.
I like Bob Knight's solution. Have one extra day of basketball, you'll have 128 total teams. The tournament might be a week longer, but you'll narrow the field down to the top 64 teams, and won't have any arguments over anything.
