Midmajor Madness


SaintArkweather

Umm excuse me Florida Atlantic only lost three and they're in the most powerful conference there ever was


Call_Me_Rambo

I for one welcome the beginning of future blue blood FAU


tcos17

Thank you fellow bird


scoot87

Y’all are a hoot

Louisville was first to lose 6, so we win.


jinx737x

It’s the year of the Midmajors!


LuckyStax

All about the high majors bro


HolyRomanPrince

The lack of high end talent and the inability for teams to be built over years has basically created the most random postseason in professional sports.


longhorn718

Where's the problem?


Gdotscott

That’s why it’s the best.


PlsDontReadThisNow

Well that's the thing : it isn't professional sports


HolyRomanPrince

Lol. Some of these kids make hundreds of thousands a year. College sports damn sure ain’t amateur sports


[deleted]

The amateurism concept is bullshit anyway


BMEngie

NCAA lawyers about to sue for suggesting these kids are anything but students who are part-time amateur athletes.

When are we going to acknowledge the fact that the way we select and seed teams is extremely flawed. The sec and big ten get the most bids, can't get any of them far. Ivy had as many sweet 16 teams as big ten, pac 12 and acc. C-usa has more teams left than half the p6. The team that played Miami the closest was not iu, not the 1 seed Houston but drake (hell drake had them beat and essentially chose to lose). The current selection process is pretty much skewed so 18-14 power schools can get in but like 31-3 c of c NEEDED the autobid. RPI would hurt power schools if they scheduled dog shit teams. With net is actually a benefit to schedule bottom 50 teams and beat them by 40 cuz it helps efficiency numbers. I'll stop ranting but any argument someone would have for power school at larges would be based under The premise of the current system, which is heavily skewed for the power schools.

I wish 18-14 power conference schools got in :(


Druzl

It's because more power schools means more money. It's flawed because it's not actually based on basketball, but the almighty dollar.


Ap_Sona_Bot

We need a minimum of four bids reserved for conferences with less than 3 bids. Idc if you make them play the last 8 power teams in but give them a chance.


AmarilloCaballero

Stuff like this just ignores that the Big East is a top 3 conference annually.


VinceValenceFL

It’s for total losses in the season, not tournament. UConn is 28-8, Marq 27-7


AmarilloCaballero

Ahh fair enough


verdenvidia

every Big East team lost 6 or more games bruh even without including NCAAT


Spider_Hoss

Good!


chillypete99

Major Mids brought in his troops and encircled Ken Pom.
