Title: Here's where we see the hypocrisy of the selection committee....
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 30, 2014, 10:34:54 EDT
Dayton getting a play-in game in their hometown would be unfair, and would destroy the integrity of the game.  So let's just give them a bye and send Tennessee in their place. 

But UConn playing a higher seed for a trip to the Final Four an hour from their campus, in a venue where they've been playing 4+ games per season for the past 30 years?  Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. :frown:

Yup.  Not to mention DOOK playing the first round in NORTH CAROLINA, in our bracket no less.

But fizzle them, they lost anyway.   :naughty:

Rules 1 and 1A of bracket building: There must ALWAYS be a region in Charlotte, Raleigh, and/or Greensboro.  And UNC and/or Duke must ALWAYS be placed in that region.  I'm pretty sure it's in the NCAA by-laws somewhere. :frown:
