    as are you. :lalala:

    Davidson did not have ONE quality win ALL season. If "almosts" start counting they are going to have to expand the tournament to 150 teams.

    That conference sucks ass except for Davidson which would have hurt Davidson's chances at getting an at large bid. I just don't think they would have made it if they didn't win their conference tournament. As usually happens, some BCS conference school would have been picked instead.

    Margin of victory (or loss) doesn't even matter.

    Playing UNC > Playing St. Leo's.

    so we are now whining about Gonzaga and Georgetown losing to Davidson?

    let me get this straight. on one hand, they're so shitty (coming out of the SoCon), they had to win their conference tourney in order just to make the big dance. they must really suck. get outta here Davidson, you blow!

    but on the other hand, they obviously had a huge home court advantage, playing both NCAA powerhouses and tournament veteran teams, in Raleigh. enough so, to tilt the scales of fate in their favor. tiny, insignificant, meek, wittle, Davidson College? really? imagine that?

    lucky Davidson and poor, poor Gonzaga and Georgetown *sniff*

    entirely true on both accounts....so I am guilty of that....

    I guess i am saying that 1) No 10 seed should ever be playing a game in rounds 1 and 2 and have the "home court" advantage (travel wise).

    2) The NCAA needs to seed the teams as close to the rankings as possible this bullshit about match ups is just that...bullshit.

    Davidson did itself a favor by playing UCLA, Duke, UNC and State...it prepped them for the big games.....But how does the NCAA treat them? are they "big boys" or mid major?

    10 seed was too low, 5 seed is prob too high 8-9 would have fit them well....the NCAA needs to give up on this Cinderella.....it should be set up so that the best team is there at the end.

    The NCAA probably gave Davidson the "home court" because they ranked them lower.
