Tennessee, LSU, and BC to my memory, are still playing. I don't remember seeing Nebraska, Colorado, or Oklahoma State in the tournament. All you mid-majorphiles need to get out a tape of Hoosiers and watch that instead of the tournament. You can get your fill of ground bound white bread hoops there.(DPruett2333 @ Mar 17 said:Yeah...those BCS schools are just too tough to compete with. Just ask Iowa, Arkansas, Seton Hall, Oklahoma, Tennessee, LSU, and Boston College.
They are obviously heads and shoulders above their smaller more inferior counterparts.
Add Nebraska, Colorado and Oklahoma State to that list also.
They obviously are heads and shoulders above the Missouri Valley!
TOOL :crazy:
Let's name three MVC teams that didn't make it. That would be the powerhouses at Illinois State, Drake, and Evansville.(DPruett2333 @ Mar 17 said:Yeah...those BCS schools are just too tough to compete with. Just ask Iowa, Arkansas, Seton Hall, Oklahoma, Tennessee, LSU, and Boston College.

Really. I don't quite consider 1966 and 2006 a comparison between like situations. There was a little thing called segregation back then. If you didn't sleep through history class, you might have heard about it.(hvwarrior58 @ Mar 17 said:It may be an insult, but it is a fact. Did you not say the other day that you are a big fan of accuracy? O wait, I forgot that you're the talking contradiction.
Name Missouri State and Creighton's quality nonconference wins. You must be one of those computer geeks that bows at the altar of the RPI.(hvwarrior58 @ Mar 17 said:LOLOLOL, that is extremely funny that you pick two of the teams at the bottom of the barrel of the MVC considering 2(Creighton and Missouri State) were 2 of the biggest snubs this year.
I'm not sure where race comes into white bread. I often use that term to describe dull, pedestrian things. Look at the style of play of the vast majority of these darlings. Creighton, Bucknell, Butler and the rest of the holy pantheon of mid-majors gone by, play a game that caters to what they do. The Bucknell/ Northern Iowa Bracket Buster game may have been the worst in ESPN history.To try and prove their point, "smart" guys like you continually try to shift the definition of mid-major. For example, you have people proclaiming Memphis and UAB as "mid-majors" That's a joke. Those team were in a conference last year that included Cincinnati, Louisville, and Marquette. They recruited the vast majority of those players in that environment. Let's see what those teams look like in a few years. By then, the lure of recruiting kids to take trips to exotic locales like Hattiesburg, Greenville, and Huntington will take hold. Cal will, of course, be fine and Mike Anderson will have long since moved on.(hvwarrior58 @ Mar 17 said:No, actually I don't buy jerseys. I don't need to put another man's name on my back to prove manhood.
Name a few midmajor teams in the tourney this year that are all white since the majority are all white.
Well, if you are that starved for a compliment, then you must have a pretty sad life my friend.
As far as the PG, either may land as the PG. You still haven't been bold enough to put in who you think it will be and saying it will be someone that isn't on the roster isn't predicting.
By the way, I'm still waiting for the quality nonconference wins by Creighton and Missouri State. You seem to have missed that point. I'm sure, given that they were "two of the biggest snubs", they have to have a number of them.(hvwarrior58 @ Mar 17 said:Man, you sure are a class act, prick. If someone has a different opinion then you, you have to go as far as insulting that person. Segregation or not, they still were not a high major team. They aren't the same decade, not even close, but you seem to think that every midmajor team at the current are "white bread" which is very false. No class, no clue and racist I see.
Ooh. I'll have to completely reevaluate my life. Your rebuke has really given me food for thought. By the way, maybe you can help your buddy 58 out. Do you know of any nonconference wins of substance by Creighton or Missouri State?(HotlantaVol @ Mar 17 said:hvwarrior58, just ignore this poor little hatvol dude. It's obvious by his postings he has a sad little life. It may be full of material possessions, but not very rich in meaningful relationships. Apparently he's picked this message board as his sole outlet for his meaningless rants :crazy:
Okay, if those are the criteria, explain Cincinnati's exclusion.(hvwarrior58 @ Mar 17 said:Yeah, I agree Hotlanta. He really reminds me of the guy that in a public place will try to one up anyone around by either blurting out some tidbit of useful knowledge or bring up how he just got a brand new ______.
As far as quality wins go, you don't have to have 4 or 5 big wins to get into the tourney. RPI, SOS, Conf RPI, and big losses are a bigger factor in getting in.
