NDSU is a 12 or 13 seed in most projections.

Just giving a point of reference. I don't give a sh!t about the talking heads, just the committee members.

Just because you beat one team with a good RPI doesn't mean as much as it used to. The RPI is not as much a criteria as it used to be.

I started being a dick after USM fans started attacking UAB because they didn't like our opinions.

So ONE USM fan hurts your feelings on an online message board so you decide to be a d!ck towards all of us? We get it, you don't think USM is worthy of an at-large invite and our win over a very good 25-6 RPI 36 NDSU team (who won their conference) AT their place won't mean a thing in the committee's eyes, gotcha. Just don't be an ass dude.

And btw, I meant glass half-empty.

This entire statement proves how little you know about the NCAA Tournament. La Tech has the slimmest of at large hopes. Their RPI and SOS basically kill them though. They have a win over an at large team in Oklahoma though, which is one thing Southern Miss is missing. Middle Tennessee has 2 top 100 wins.(and Akron is 100) They have a decent SOS, but again, the RPI is not in their favor.

Again, I would like to see as many teams from C-USA get in as possible.(this has nothing to do with the season UAB has had, don't get why you guys keep bringing that up) I am looking at this as objectively as possible, and several of you aren't even attempting to do so.

Damn, the jealousy is getting much worse. Now the idiot is just making things up.

What did I make up?

And you are the biggest idiot of them all. Don't schedule teams like Louisville, that can't possibly help our cause.

You guys blame ESPN for everything, but my goodness do you even take a second to look at stats and numbers? North Dakota State has a shittier resume than Southern Miss.

You have to realize that 80% of our fans have no idea what they're talking about (when it comes to basketball)

*Cleans spewed water off of computer screen*

Few truer statements have ever been made.

I guess making every home game but 4 over 11 years equals knowing nothing about basketball. Or averaging 2 away games over those same 11 years. Or watching thousands of games on television.

What the **** do you know about basketball?

Good for your support. You're better than me.

Just because you go to home games or even if you are an expert on the Xs and Os, doesn't mean you know anything about the tournament selection process.

You may be very knowledgeable, anyway. Notice the quote above said the majority of USM fans--not every.

Go USM and Tech. We need every team that makes the post season to do well. Yes, including ECU.
