Maybe because their OOC schedule was in the 300's (I want to say 327, but I'm not sure) and they play in a crap conference yet lost in the first round of their conference tourney?

What the hell was with the TV coverage this afternoon? Not only did I have to watch the entire UF game, which was a blowout with 10 minutes left and ended up a 26 point margin, but then they went immediately to the local news instead of covering the last 50 seconds of a 1-point Alabama/Marquette game. And right now, LSU is easily beating Iona, yet we're not being switched to the GW/ UNC-Wilm game. Is this CBS' attempt to force us to buy the pay-per-view package? This is fucking pissing me off.

They were ranked in the preseason. They were a dominant team against almost everybody they played (however weak) during the regular season. College basketball coaches and analysts saw it fit to continually rate them in the Top 10 in the country throughout the season. They deserved more.

Meh, whatever, if they could have done something in their conference tourney we wouldn't be having this conversation. Or if they scheduled ANYBODY DECENT in their OOC.

They've been pretty good here about turning away from games that are not competitive, particularly when another game is very competitive and down to the last minutes like the Dub's game is. Oh and... GO DUB!

I've watched him play for 4 years at least once a season (a few more than that cause of seeing him at the CAA tourney or if W&M and the Dub are rarely televised)... he is quite good.. That being said, if his predecessor Brett Blizzard didn't go in the NBA, he won't... Blizzard was amazing and single handedly won a first round NCAA game a few years ago.

I believe I see the answer to this part of your question. Ksyrup Tallahassee The other part, I think is some sort of contractual thing, where you can get extra coverage of games [i]before your 2nd game of the day is complete but not after your 2nd game is complete.

BS on this. They lost to a decent NC State team on the road (I was mistaken - they lost just one regular season game). They beat a ranked Maryland team. The rest of their schedule wasn't great. But in their defense they really did just run wild over their conference opponents who had a very surprising down year. Other than a 3-game run near the end of the season, they scored 75+ points in basically every single conf. game.

I just checked... their RPI is 37th.... with 2 losses, why is that? Because their SOS counting their conference games was 207.

Seriously. Let's not talk about what they were ranked at the time. Let's talk about how good the teams actually were. Look at the numbers, OOC schedule in the 300's, overall SOS 207.

Ok, RPI is one measure. By that, they're about an 8 seed. By watching them dominate all year, they're about a 2-3 seed. Average that out, they should be a 4-5 seed. They got jobbed.

Well, I'm fairly certain that even most UF fans wouldn't care to watch the last 3 minutes of a 25 point game when another game is so close. I understand the connection and all, but it was BS. Then again, if there was som contractual thing, maybe they knew they couldn't stick with the close game anyway, so they never switched to it. Either way, I, as the fan, lost.

well, its really a 9-seed, and they dominated a mid-major league (mid-major at best this season). By dominating, that's probably getting them a 4-5 at most any year (Gonzaga is the only mid-major that gets seeded high, and thats after years of regular season success). So that averages about a 7. Seeing as a few mid-majors were 1-2 seeds below where they should have been (Winthrop, Zags...), then a 9 is about right. |

No, the polls said they were a 2 (or 3 maybe) seed. The RPI said they were an 8-9 seed. Given a little more weight to the polls (as the committee typically does in seeding shoe-in teams), they should be a 4-5 seed.

you know what sucks, that for some reason i root for a team, but they lose, but the team that wins is the team i picked in the bracket, and i have no idea how to feel, or why i rooted for the team that i didn't pick.

Gonzaga, the most OVERRATED! team in the tournament, gets lucky and gets by a 14 seed. I bet they get blasted by Indiana.

Morrison looks like he runs his mouth a lot.. Every time you see him he is talking smack.. Even while he is shooting free throws.
That kind of takes away from GU's Good Guy Image a bit... That, and the Porn Star Mustache.

That was a Maryland team that at the time was not missing their best player. They had 11 wins (including one over BC) and only 4 losses with McCray, with 3 of those losses coming to Duke, Gonzaga, and GW. As for their SOS, the RPI is a total joke at this point. Shouldn't the goal of a ratings formula be determine which team is better, who would win a game? Take a look at the RPI top 50 and try not to laugh at the notion of it as a predictor.
