Well ... nobody’s perfect.

It’s almost like the outside world doesn’t really respect us, or something

MTSU losing may be best for the conference. We're definitely a two-bid conference this year. I bet MTSU is embarrassed. Go prove something Raiders!

According to Lunardi, they were already in as was Xavier. I don't think this one will hurt Mtsu

Lunardi’s bracket doesn’t include MTSU or Louisville anymore.

Replaced by WKU and New Mexico.

RE: I will be pissed if MTSU gets left out
As of this morning, Bracketology has MTSU in the "next four out" line. Basically not even in the bubble discussion.

Also, what changed for Texas and Oklahoma to go from out of the discussion to in the tournament!?

Texas in their last 10: 4-6 with one RPI top 50 win in their last 10. Currently holds a 7-9 record against the RPI top 50, so not bad. I would have them in before Oklahoma who started red hot and cooled quicker than winter in Barrow Alaska...

Oklahoma in their last 10: 2-8 with no RPI top 50 wins in the last 10. In fact, their 6 big top 50 wins came in the first half of the year. So this isn't even that same team.

Unreal, the biass.

ODU sitting at 76 currently. I don't know how likely that is to change.

I think MT has to be either last four in or first four out.

Also, why does he have New Mexico in? They're not even the team that upset Nevada?

I take it he has New Mexico beating San Diego State...

But yeah, that Nevada loss could have been the final nail. It's opened the door for all these mediocre power teams to sneak in....

Honestly, it could change with a Marshall win today considering you all have the two wins against us...that could be the needle to move you all to 75...

Again, it's all so close.

In all fairness to Nevada they have a ridiculously low RPI (16). I would be more annoyed if they bumped MTSU for 14 loss power conference team which I am afraid is going to be the case.

We'll, it looks like multiple 14 loss mediocre power schools are getting in over MTSU.

It's real close...

RE: I will be pissed if MTSU gets left out
I think MTSU is a team that could do well in the tourney but losing your last 2 games (one to a really high RPI) hurts. In some ways it sucks because ND can suck half the season, but they find a way because they will get the benefit of the doubt with injuries. Unfortunately for MTSU I think they are out with Alabama in.

It looks like MT is going to be the only team in the top 40 of the RPI not to be in the tournament. I would say I'm surprised but...

MTSU certainly didn’t finish strong but I think they definitely should be in; BUT I’m cynical when it comes to Power conferences and the NCAA. I believe had MTSU beaten MU, USM, and MU again then lost in championship, the powers that be would have kept them out as well.

I don't think the title game will effect our RPI at all. If anything a WKU win would help since we played them 3 times to Marshall twice. How we faired against those teams is separate to how they perform.

Actually, if Marshall wins tonight, WKU is currently sitting with an RPI of 35.

It would totally be two CUSA teams to be under a 40 RPI and not make it though...that's sounds about right.

Or a Western win, for that matter.
