Man what a great set of answers so far. I’ll add mine: Multiple.
Admittedly, the SEC was much tougher than all the other conferences this year. Still, it must be possible for worthy teams to exist outside of the...
I hate to ask you to extend your great work, but if we are comparing stats, I think Calathes would come out pretty well.
I think it’s tough to know. Our data is always incomplete, and experts continually disagree. It might be that Duke is getting to much credit, but...
These two are measuring different things. I still think Auburn earned their seed. 16 quad 1 victories, including four over the NET top 10, is hard...
Yeah you should. Not sure where I’m getting my info from these days. :confused:
I don’t know that I’d say stupid. It’s not like they are ranking us 35th. 3rd ranked team in nation wins national title is hardly a surprising...
I don’t think there is another AP poll until after the NCAA championship.
I read CJ Moore’s bracket analysis in the Athletic today, and he addressed the question of why so many teams are killing it in the metrics. One is...
Woah. It’s a rational pick, but not the only rational pick. But everyone picked us in 2007 too, and if memory serves that worked out alright.
Seems so. You were right on with this one.
Clearly the committee was favoring metrics over resume. Can’t complain too much about the program’s third ever #1 seed, but I would have seeded...
Oddly, I’m somewhat wanting to defend resume here, so I’d go with those two teams being Auburn and Florida, but Duke has a hell of a squad. I’d...
I maintain that Gators seeding shouldn’t be determined only by the eyes of Gators fans. If that’s a ship you still think isn’t worth being in, so...
And the Gators have now broke 36 on KenPom. Less than one point away from the highest ever rating prior to this season. https://kenpom.com/
ESPN has the SEC now. No reason they should have a bias against the SEC title game. I’m watching the halftime show of the Memphis-UAB game, and...
You are totally right, Hey, SOS needs to be well considered to make these decisions. Auburn likely has the best resume. Still. Their SOS is sky...
Maybe, but when you get roughed up like we did there, I don’t think we deserve excuses. We avenged the loss today, and now we control our own destiny.
The eyeball test is great if you can figure out whose eyeballs are the ones seeing clearly. Auburn’s and Duke’s fans probably think their own...
I hear you, and I’ve been making this argument that Florida should be seeded above Duke for the same reason. I would say that there has to be some...
