They only have one Quad 2 win and zero Quad 1 wins.

Asinine. If the ncaa wants congress to come screw everything up this is one way to accomplish it. This is the kind of event that gets the attention of the “everyman.”
Silly about their quad results. Their absolute consistency should get them in. Quad my #%

Ridiculous. Even if they don’t win give them a 12 seed and it will be an interesting story to see if they can get 1 of those famous 12-5 upsets

I don’t care who your schedule is, winning EVERY GAME is HARD.

Yeah, it’s disrespectful that they have to endure all this faux skepticism after pulling that off. Sometimes I despise the Sports-Media Complex.

Well, they have no top 25 or P5 match-ups. They are playing all mid-major crappie teams.
When we were a mid-major, we played P5 teams like Oregon and Alabama just to mention a few.
Bubble is right place for them. If they win out in regular season, I hope they make it in even if they lose a game in their conference tourney. But their NET is 48 and at 86 in kenpom.

Exactly why low mid-level B10 teams don’t belong.
You thought they would learn from a few years ago when all the B10 love turned into a 1-9 result (or something close to it).
The spirit of sportsmanship and recognition for a great season should override low mid-level P4 teams. Their fans don’t even care at that point.

if the low level teams do not belong in basketball, they do not belong in football too ad the p2 might as well separate now.
i remember a few years ago, SFA lumberjacks got in and actually won a few; they were never a real threat but I have no doubt all the SFA students and grads will remember that year for the rest of their lives.
mid-major? We never were a true mid-major league - CUSA was created as a basketball league and the American was also
The MAC is a different story - 29-0 in USA then and the American gers you in the top 10

I don’t think you meant to reply to me.
Coogfans bug strikes again…
Let them play Duke in the first round
One more win and they are unbeaten, WTG Miami-OH !
Hoping they get a 10 seed, they are highly unlikely to make the sweet 16 but a 7 can be beat. those kids deserve one tourney win imo.

Bruce is saying dumb shiit because his nepo baby is not cutting at Auburn. Why worry about Miami (OH), their coach will probably get hired by a bigger school. Let them enjoy their season and give them their flowers.

NOBODY deserves a tourney win… ALL TOURNEY WINS ARE EARNED!
I guess you could say they deserve a shot at a win…

I’d much rather see Miami than the 10th or 11th team out of the OVERRATED Big 10.

And Auburn damn sure doesn’t deserve a spot…

Does there really need to be a debate on who is more deserving between any one loss team and a .500 SEC team?
