clearly there is a P5 bias and opportunity to beat teams on your conference schedule to improve your resume...but Let's win some games and "upset" some of the higher seeds before we whine too much
I put a lot of this on Areasco- our supposed commisioner. He needs to man up, get some balls and do some major complaining. We won't get any respect until he starts demanding it. He must insist that we get some representation on the committee. The AAC teams got hosed again this year. I think the AD and Univ. Presidents need to tell him to get something done or move on. JMHO.

We really need a resurgence in football program so we can jockey to get in with P5. We have the Dallas market as a selling point and strong alumni base, but we just have not had prolonged success with football and bball simultaneously. Until then, we will be outsiders

His best quote was how well they did down the stretch. They played the bottom 3 teams in the conference. Who cares if they beat them. Do you think anyone is saying "it's a big plus that SMU beat USF and ECU!" Hell no. Absolute joke.
