...here goes my rants:
1. Texas getting a #4 seed, which is way too low, considering the Longhorns' out-of-conference strength of schedule and their run in the AP Top 10 for the majority of the season.
2. Missouri, a tournament lock by many, was revealed to be a "Last 6-In" Bubble team, and #11 seed is completely ridiculous.
3. WHERE IS COLORADO?!?!?! They have had a great season in Big 12, including upsetting Texas and beating Kansas State (a #5 seed) not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES?!?! They are also playing some of their best basketball right now, as they took Kansas down to the wire on Friday in the Big 12 semis. This is the biggest snub of the tournament and I feel for Corey Higgins and Alec Burks because the committee messed this one up.
4. Florida a #2 Seed???? First off, the SEC is overrated, and I don't even know why. So, the Gators can handle Vanderbilt over and over. They just got taken apart by Kentucky today, and haven't been in the AP Top 10 the whole season.
5. UAB getting an at-large despite losing in the Conference USA championship is ridiculous. C-USA is a joke of a conference and their domination of it did not warrant them an at-large.
6. VCU getting an at-large is unreal, as their out-of-conference was not that strong. The fact that the Colonial Athletic Conference got three teams is puzzling.
7. Michigan State gets in despite having a pathetically awful season, only because of their notoriety.
8. Alabama beats Georgia not once, but TWICE, and the Bulldogs are dancing while the Tide are watching. Ridiculous.
Disagreements with the committee aside, let's hope its a great tournament with the Final Four concluding in my hometown in Houston, Texas.
