Mizzou did little-to-nothing OOC and has beaten one top 50 team that probably won't even be in the tournament. Does that make me a hater? Or a realist? This is why I get irritated with homers on this board. I stay extremely neutral. Here's the facts: Missouri did NOTHING OOC, they lost to Austin Peay and Boise State and their best win is Sacramento State...... For the record, I have Mizzouri in, thanks to their inflated RPI, and I think Mizzou by the eye test (with Crow) is a team that deserves a bid. But if you look at their resume and are impressed, you NEED glasses My bad...it was ay with the "down with SEC" comment. I may be an SEC homer but certainly not a Mizzou one. I am with trojan missouri has done nothing of note except get beat by kentucky,florida, byu, san diego, utah, northern iowa and boise state to inflate their rpi. |

I have Mizzou as last 4 in right now, but with the upset they have brewing... they would skyrocket! Would like to see their RPI potential with a Florida win.. they will be close to top 25 but probably not in. |

I hope the committee minimizes the amount of seeded teams from the same conference in the same regional by distributing teams from similar conferences across all 4 regionals as much as possible. If the committee has to place more than one Pac 12 or B1G team in the same regional, they should choose teams that were only able to play once instead of twice in the regular conference season. The committee should also do its best to place the winners and runner ups of the Pac 12, B1G, and BIGXII on opposite sides of the bracket.The committee screwed the PAC in 2010.. They placed USC, Stanford, Cal, and Washington all on the same half of the bracket. They all 4 made the Elite 8, and had to play each other into the semifinals, and then Cal beat USC to go to the national championship....... They don't seem to care anything about placement after the subregionals are done. NCAA prefers to not have a one conference final. Makes for lower national ratings. |

Would a Mizzou win hurt anyone besides Florida?

Trojan, what's your success rate with your system compared to the actual picks? Would think you don't miss on too many!

They don't seem to care anything about placement after the subregionals are done. Hard to micro manage if you have more than 4 from same conference. Not nearly as bad as Big 12 having 4 teams at the SAME regional, effectively a conference tournament. That is worst ever screw job. How would you feel if those four teams you named, USC, Stanford, Cal and UW were at same regional. |

Trojan, what's your success rate with your system compared to the actual picks? Would think you don't miss on too many! Check the front page. Usually 98.4% accurate at minimum. |

They are not in the business of predicting the final match, and when they set up the 16 seeds they completely ignore conferences. (Or at least, they say they do.) |
