Total Disrespect AGAIN for the American

Post by StallionsModelT »

We've had the last two national champions and we (SMU) are a 6 seed with 27 wins. Tulsa and Temple both out?! If anyone thinks the NCAA is not one of the hypocritical and corrupt organizations in the country is divorced from reality.

Totally expected though if you paid attention to what happened last year.

Of course it was expected. It almost makes following college athletics pointless. If you are not a name brand program then you have almost no chance.

The message is clear. If you're not P5 you have to win a minimum of 25 games and/or win your conference tournament.

We need to pull a UConn and just win the whole f'ing thing. Maybe two NCs in a row will help 8)

respect has to be earned; we have a good opportunity with games against UCLA and Iowa State and Cincy gets Purdue so those are games we either win....or prove our critics right

I still have never heard a good explanation of why this "committee" does all of their work behind closed doors and not totally out in the open.

The fact Barns used the "eye test" to justify some of those selections. "Eye test" is a euphemism for they wanted those teams in record be damned.
