    Yeah, I really hope BYU can just win a first round game finally.

    At least I am guaranteed to be shown the entire first round game due to my proximity to A&M.

    UConn will beat BYU by 30+ if the Cougs can get by A&M.

      Really is sad that the MWC will end up with only 2 teams in the tournament. I really thought 3-4 could have made it. Well, there is still one region to reveal, but I doubt SDSU is in...

        Looks like Penn State will be out. Wisconsin only got a 12 seed. Interesting.

          The committee must be feeling sorry for Mark "First round" Few. Gonzaga has a cake walk to the sweet 16.

            Penn State doesn't deserve to be in. They've collapsed over the past month or so.

              4 "non power conference" teams got at large bids. Pathetic.

              BYU, Dayton, Xavier and Butler were the lucky ones.

                Makes me wonder if BYU would have been out if SDSU had won yesterday.

                  Gonzaga is now officially overrated.

                  I don't think they're that great.

                    If SDSU had won, the Arizona or Maryland would have been out.

                      BYU's resume is not that much better than SDSU's, so I'm not sure they would have put three MWC teams in.

                        I would tend to agree with you had BYU been one of the last teams in. But, as an 8 seed, they were solidly in the tournament, so I think BYU was in no matter what.

                          BYU has 2 wins over SDSU (1 in San Diego)
                          SDSU 1 over BYU on a neutral court

                          BYU has an RPI of 30
                          SDSU 34

                          BYU has 25 wins
                          SDSU 21

                          BYU has 5 wins over RPI top 50 teams
                          SDSU has 2 wins over RPI top 50 teams. (Utah and BYU)

                          Also if BYU was on the bubble they would not have gotten an 8 seed. They would have been a 10 or 11. The last team in was clearly Arizona, followed by Maryland, Dayton, and Michigan.

                            Cougs seeding meltdown is classic.
