I was disgusted by Nantz and Packer but no skin off ur backs BU fans you guys are in. I thought you would be a 10 or 11 but Kansas is a winnable game if you play good ball.

Brebeuf 15-6
We lost in the semis.
Good luck at Bradley Andrew, its been a pleasure. -
I agree that it could be a winnable game. But Bradley has to shake off the tendency to start slow. They need to play well from the start of both halves.
If Bradley wins, they will play the winner of the Pittsburgh-Kent State game. Go KSU!"Peoria, land of 10,000 coaches"Comment

The key for the Braves will be..........not to get stuck on a # for a long period of time........this is do or die time, no tomorrow if you lose! If the outside shots fail to fall.....take it inside and work back out.........no more fade-away treys!
Also having a healthy DR will bode well for the Braves!

Very bushleague of those two! As I said on another thread, they probably don't deserve to be fired because of their opinions. But I CAN see them being fired because of their rudeness toward the committee chair, and their unflinching disdain toward "the little people" of Division I basketball! EEWWWW!!!Originally posted by mplona
They ought to be ashamed of themselves! Not very good "journalism" to say the least!

I think Bradley's biggest problem all year, even during their few losses during their hot streak, is that they get too easily flustered when they fall way behind. They start forcing up "NBA" threes, and they get away from their patent inside style of offense that has helped them get to where they are. Oh, and then they forget how to play defense as well!Originally posted by BU fan
IF they are patent, they can hang around and overtake the best of anybody. If not, it could get ugly fast, like it did during that ten minute stretch of the MVC championship game!Comment

4 got in... I don't see how that is no respect...Originally posted by SpfldBUAlum
Now if you said no respect from the talking heads on CBs.. who actually talked out of their other ends.. I would agree....???We all want Bradley to win. If our methods and visions for that are different, then so be it. Don't ever attempt to tell me I am not a fan!???Comment

A&M beat Texas
Creighton beat who??Comment

I think most MVC fans didn't have a problem with Creighton not getting in. They had the highest RPI of any of the top 6 MVC schools (39). Creighton had some nice wins, 6 against top 33 RPI schools-- George Mason (RPI 26), Missouri State (RPI 21), Northern Iowa twice (25), Bradley (33), and Wichita State (27).Originally posted by Evolvehawk
But Missouri State had an RPI of 21 and was left out. Why bother even having the RPI if the #21 team can be left out. No team has ever been even close to that and been left out. Texas A&M had an RPI of 44. They did beat Texas at home (their only quality win), but how many teams like Texas could Bradley and Missouri State have beaten if those teams would have the guts to play them in Peoria and Springfield, MO?
By the way, Texas A&M's win over Texas was the only win they had all year against any team with an RPI less than 59!
They did not deserve a bid IMO.Comment

why should Big 12 teams visit MVC teams?
shouldn't it be vice versa?
Gonzaga started playing anyone anywhere, then once they earned respect they started getting more teams on better sites (neutrals, home/home's)
Like it or not, it's a BCS conference world, and the MVC simply lives in itComment

Here is one man's opinion of the selection committee's work. I happen to agree with most of what is said.
Looks to me like the committee was concerned about the number of bids per conference. The quality of the teams they put in or out was secondary to the balancing of the conference bids according to their preconceived ranking of the conferences.
Here is another opinion by Gregg Doyel of CBS. He takes the committee to task--

Yes, and as far as I know the MVC went 7-9 against the Big Ten, SEC, ACC, Big XII, and Big East.Originally posted by EvolvehawkComment

A lot of the a******s like packer, nance, and digger wont be happy until the smaller conferences break off into a div1-aa or something like football.
We just need to hope for some wins. I think all the valley teams have a reasonable shot at winning their first round games (although we got screwed the most of anyone, well minus Mo State).Comment

KU turned down a visit from WSU on national television this season. Instead WSU went to Auburn Hills to play Michigan St and KU brought in Cal.Originally posted by Evolvehawk
Good thing too cause playing KU would have hurt their RPI.Comment
