Ya'll don't know the pain of getting f'ed in the A by the selection committee like us Missouri State fans.... The amount of exposure and money we have been robbed of is criminal. If we have got even 2-3 at large bids from our 5 best seasons, our program would be in a completely different place right now. We still have one of the best arenas in the country outside the P5 (and better than many p5 arenas IMO) and a ton of potential, but unless we can get into a better conference where we can actually get an at-large bid, I think our program is going to fade away and just be another low-major. Wichita and Creighton have already left the MVC, I don't see our conference ever getting another at large again...

Just look at all this heartbreak, 19 years and no dancing and I still watch/listen to almost every game... WHY???? WHY do I do this to myself!!!!
2000- RPI 33
2005 - RPI 56
2006 - RPI 21 ---- I'm still pissed, like legit pissed about this. F the big schools/selection fools screwing the mid majors over. Seriously.
2007 - RPI 48
2011 - RPI 39 AND MVC regular season champions... No Respect I tell ya, NONE!

MVC frequently doesn't get the respect they deserve by the committee.

Realistically, other mid-major conferences don't have complaints too often.
