Midmajors are doing very well, and have thrown egg in the faces of the pundits and NCAA selection committee...
Maybe they shoulda listened to us and they'd have seen this coming, as the mid-majors are better than most give them credit for.

"Midmajors Show They Deserve Better Deal"
"Doug Elgin..felt that Northern Iowa..was given a raw deal by the committee.
“I think this year’s wild-and-crazy N.C.A.A. tournament proves that there are
a lot of good teams out there under the radar that we’ll never know about,”
Elgin said. “They’re in other tournaments and never got that opportunity.”
‘We have darn good teams that haven’t gotten in.’ ”
..the four days of upheaval in college basketball showed that
Minnesota does not need to be in the field. Nor does the eighth-place team
in the Big East, or the seventh-place team in the Big 12."
