What was the best thing about our win last night? Getting the AUTOMATIC bid to the NCAA tournament! Now we don't have to sweat out waiting for the selection show to see if we get an at large bid. 
You're always a one bid league unless you get another one. That's sort of circular logic.
fran just needs 10 more years to get his guys son's inDamn near rivals the Fran turnaround at EIU...
They placed Auburn in Birmingham last year, which is like 100 miles, they would 100% them there as a 7/8/9.
I partially disagree.
I agree the committee ignores the results of the tournament.
I disagree about seeding more heavily on the regular season. They seed more heavily based on total body of work. If two teams are close in the regular season, then the results of the tournament absolutely could flip things.
That said, Iowa State and UNC are really close either way and I wouldn't be surprised if either one is the last 1 seed.
If Nebraska's spot on the seedline comes up and Omaha is open, they will go there. There are no bracketing principles that prevent that.
I do not want us to get a one seed. I want this team to play angry.
But that was against Iowa, so that’s acceptable
Maybe, but the best #2 seed is not gaurenteed to go west. They could put us in the midwest, especially if Purdue is the #3 team.
Yeah, there's no way they can ignore a game during the season (conference tournaments are the season, albeit, not the regular season) where a team beats the AP #1 ranked team by nearly 30 points at a neutral site.
Not saying it's enough to pull the #1 seed. But saying things are locked in before the season ends just doesn't work. This is a committee that does their homework. You may not agree with what they do, but it's not like the Football eye-test Bull ****.
Were ISU and UNC considered close a week ago? I thought we were pushing for a 2 seed at best.
Nardnuts is firmly in the “conference tournaments don’t matter” group but what we did to Baylor and Houston HAS to matter. Likewise NC losing to a team that was playing their 5th game in 5 days HAS to matter. It’s a total body of work and those games count. If we get pushed to East as a 2 that would be criminal.
Nothing says disrespect like a 2 seed...
They definitely try to avoid it but at times their hands are also tied due to conference rematches etc. With that being said, Nebby isn’t getting Omaha.

It’s certainly been hit and miss at times but we’ve also never seen what happened yesterday. I think they will matter.
I think (only a guess but competitive guys do competitive things) TJ finds things to motivate them and I can see him using the 2 seed as a slant.
