cajunaggie08 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I'll be thrilled if the Ags win over syracuse. I wouldnt care if they got blown out by LSU or Iona in the next round. Id just be excited to say the Aggies won a NCAA Tournament game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HatCityEnforcer Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I'll throw in my 2/100ths of a dollar here...--Nantz and Packer need a big tall cool glass of STFU. What totally got me was the fact that they were whining about how the ACC and Big XII only got 4 teams each. Who else in the ACC was worthy outside of Duke, BC, UNC, & NC State? FSU? Not with the awful OOC sched they had...besides, their only claim to fame this year was beating the Dookies. UMD? The Terps were very inconsistant all season long and putting them in was a stretch to begin with before the ACC tourney...the loss they had in G-Boro killed their chances. As for the Big XII, the committee got it right with the 4 they sent. Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and A&M had solid seasons and were worthy of it. The ONLY other Big XII team that had a case was Colorado, and A&M smacking them around in Dallas ended that noise.--One gem from ESPN. As much as I like Jay Bilas, Michigan did NOT deserve a bid...not when you go 2-7 down the stretch and most certainly not when you lay an egg in the opening round of your conference tourney against a team you've beaten up on twice in the regular season.--The MVC should have had 5, IMO. Missouri State got shafted if you ask me. The CAA had a compelling case for 3 teams as well with Hofstra (especially in light of how they took out George Mason TWICE in 10 days).--Air Force getting a bid=COMPLETE AND ABSOLUTE JOKE. Their biggest non-conference opponents were Miami and Georgia Tech, two mediocre ACC teams. The rest of the sched was squishy soft. No matter anyways, I see the Illini tearing them a new sphincter in the opening round.Top Snubs: Missouri State, Cincinnati, Hofstra, Creighton, South CarolinaPredictions?

Moser316 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I was surprised to see UW-Milwaukee get an 11th seed with all the Bracketologists picking them as a 13 (or, at best, a 12). I like the matchup with Oklahoma, it has upset written all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Top Snubs: South Carolina How did South Carolina get snubbed? They finished 18-15, and that's after the SEC Tournament, which they did not win. Any other team with that record is destined for the NIT...if it's lucky. Smart is believing half of what you hear.

HatCityEnforcer Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Good column by ESPN.com's Pat Forde on that interview of the head of the NCAA Tourney Selection Committee by Nantz & Packer. Basically, Forde agrees with my take that those two idiots from CBS were way the hell out of line.Link FANTASY TEAMSHousatonic U.

WSU151 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I've never liked Billy Packer, and quite frankly, I have no idea how the hell he's still employed by CBS or what people see in him. If he and Nantz are doing the PBP for any of my teams (UWM, Marquette, Wisconsin or Iowa), I'm muting the TV. Packer is the best guy CBS has, IMO. He's much better than his counterparts, such as Vitale or Raftery. Packer provides great insight, doesn't play favorites, doesn't use gimmick lines like Vitale and Raftery, and will give solid analyses of situations. He has a very straight-forward approach, doesn't shy away from offending coaches and players, doesn't care if he appeals to the masses, and he's right about 99.999% of the time. He's akin to Hubie Brown for the NBA, Dan Dierdorf with the NFL, John Davidson with hockey, and tennis' John McEnroe and Mary Carillo (two of the best analysts in ANY sport). Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 Were the CBS guys outta line? Most likely so. However, if the questions were re-phrased, the same type of material would be asked by your Dan Patrick's and your Stuart Scott's. Observe:CBS says (paraphrased), "By having four teams from the Missouri Valley as well as the ACC and Big-XII, you're saying that the [MVC] is equal to the power conferences!" (note exclamation point, lol)ESPN woulda said essentially the same thing, but more like "Looking at the brackets, I see there are as many [MVC] teams as the ACC. Do you think they're equal conferences?"What really put CBS outta line in my book was their tone (which was more scolding than questioning). Nantz/Packer had valid questions, the kind of questions that ESPN is known for, but an incorrect, attacking attitude about themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
