I agree. Murray State was rated 25th and is playing in the NIT!Originally posted by bradleyfan124 View PostComment

Back when Butler was in the Horizon the argument used all the time against them was..
"but they are in such a weak conference - they never play anyone tough"
even when they won enough to make it to the Championship game there were doubters...
well, guess what - now they are in a major conference and play tough teams all the time and they are still kicking butt.
They beat five ranked teams this year, were ranked Top 25 and still get a tough draw and have to get past Texas and the hottest team in the nation Notre Dame to advance...
nope - they are still treated as a midmajor and a team the big boys don't want in there
Wichita will get Kansas if they advance...
Stephen F Austin is 29-4 and they get a 12 seed - Murray State 27-5 and get left outComment

I'd rather see them seed teams by pulling names out of a hat than the way they do it currently, but this is what we're stuck with. Just like everything in life, it's all about the money.Larry Bird
I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.Comment

Couldn't agree with this more. I actually like Coach K and Duke (well, like may not be the right word, but I don't hate them). To ignore the ridiculous bias given to teams like Duke and Notre Dame (another example of teams that no matter how they perform always seem to outlast their performance in the rankings, this year may be the exception) is just more of the same bias.Originally posted by tornado View Postyou mistake neutrality and fairness for anti-Duke ...

Let's be honest - we can pretty much start the basketball season by making Duke a #1 seed in the NCAA tourney. It's that much of a given.
Big 10 bias now, I'm all about that. Bias that crap out of the Big 10 is what I say! Illini just missing again. Very sad.Larry Bird
