gtc08 · Mar 13, 2011

they were regular season conf usa champs and arnt even guaranteed a tourney spot, have a play in game.

yeah bullshit

bucsfan67 · Mar 13, 2011

because their resume doesnt stack up to some who were snubbed....esp colorado

gtc08 · Mar 13, 2011

but they still were a conference champ. those clowns totally dismiss that.

vcu i can understand, but uab should be in

Colorado lost to San Francisco, Harvard, Georgia and New Mexico out of conference and both Oklahoma and Iowa State in conference.

If you take a look at everything they have done this season, the wins over Kansas State didnt do much to overcome some of those bad losses and some of the patsies on their early schedule.

i was simply answering his question...colorado played 8 ranked teams and beat 4 of them.....thats more quality wins than UAB easily

bucsfan67 · Mar 13, 2011

and if we're saying UAB got in just because they won conf usa, then i would say bama should be in by going 12-4 in the SEC and winning their division....that being said, i dont think bama deserved to make it either...although they beat GA twice in the last 2 weeks, and GA made it......like the announcers have said, when u get to these bubble teams a case can be made both for them making it, and them being left out......its all debatable....i simply feel Colorado has the biggest argument, and VCU got the luckiest

The committee also looks at who you lose to though and those losses didnt help their cause

their is no reason why bcs schools should have a ooc schedule strength below 150.....vt...157, ala 285, colo325.....they did it to themselves.....they could have gotten games with anyone but chose not too, so i have no problem with a few mid-majors getting in like vcu, uab....

Great point.

Too many BCS schools play cupcakes through November and December ... telling them to fuck off is the ONLY way to end this shit.

The message is clear: If you play cupcakes in Nov and Dec, you get to play cupcakes in March ... in the NIT and the CBI ...
