None of the games mattered this weekend according to the committee

 

[Joseph Hathaway]

Lmao we actually were the last 2 seed wtf

 

[Clonehomer]

How were we the 8th seed overall??????

 

[Jnecker4cy]

To me they are saying that confrence tourneys are only for little leagues and bubble teams.

 

[Cyclones423]

Here comes their ******** justification

 

[jaj040]

What a joke

 

[jsb]

WE ACTUALLY WERE THE LAST 2 SEED. **** THAT ****.

 

[Aclone]

We got put in a tournament that didn’t end up having great teams aside from us; we got matched up with DePaul which is garbage; Iowa sucked, out of our control. What does scheduling one more neutral game against a P6 team really matter? The committee went out of its way to make sure they wouldn’t face heat from media and psycho blue blood fans. Its ******** plain and simple.

That was my thought. Generally we play some mid or low majors, trounce them, then when March Madness rolls around, there are two or three of those teams that make it, and I think, “Oh, they turned out to be good?”

Apparently that didn’t happen this year.

How do you predict that?!

 

[Cyclones423]

Liar, you did this for storylines, be honest.

 

[CycloneErik]

Hi, Charles. #8? You suck.

Jay Wright. You're not awful.

 

[jdoggivjc]

Iowa St was never even considered.

 

[Nothingman]

Wow they just showed we were the last two seed. Win it all. **** ‘em.

 

[FriendlySpartan]

South Dakota State is peppered with people that have coached with or know our coaches well. So they'll know what we are going to do. That's a disadvantage for us.

Drake will be annoying because the media in this state will act like it will be great no matter who wins and that's not the kind of vibe I'm going for.

Dude if you’re worried about South Dakota state you aren’t following your team. There isn’t anyone until the elite 8 that should been challenge you

 

[HoustonClone]

Committee is claiming that Tennessee was the possibility for the last one seed. Not us. Pathetic.

 

[dahliaclone]

Kansas got a helluva nice path for a 4 seed.

i've already picked them being upset first game. kinda easy too

 

[jsb]

Dude if you’re worried about South Dakota state you aren’t following your team. There isn’t anyone until the elite 8 that should been challenge you

Dude, you aren't an Iowa State fan. We worry about everything . It's mostly fine, but it's kind of ********.

So overall, does this bracket mean that conference tournaments don't seem to mean as much as you'd think they do? That is, for power 5 conferences....

We should be where Tennessee is and they should be where we are.

 

[RagingCloner]

This might be a dumb idea, but do we do CF bracket pools? Instead of paying for brackets, donate $20 to we will or something?

 

[CycloneErik]

Appropriately placed? That's funny.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Remember everyone besides maybe UCONN is pissed that WE are in their region.

I doubt UConn is thrilled about it either.

I’ve never seen a bracket yet that looked like a cakewalk right off the bat, and I think this is as good of region as any.

Just saw that we were 8th overall. Must have been a clear 3 before winning this weekend, or the Big 12 tournament didn’t matter at all.
