Message: [QUOTE="Scrutineer, post: 3083069, member: 8240"] A couple observations after reading Izzo's comments in the following article: [URL='https://www.yahoo.com/sports/tom-izzo-not-happy-with-ncaa-tournament-seeding-treatment-of-big-ten-055415319.html']Tom Izzo not happy with NCAA tournament seeding, treatment of Big Ten[/URL] 1. Izzo complained loudly, possibly rightfully, about his seeding as a 2 vs Duke, but maybe he ought to go after whoever is responsible for their tournament final being played so late (same for the AAC, by the way). What if he lost to Michigan and had already been given a better seeding (like against Gonzaga)? TV rules the roost. 2. Also, he touts how demanding it is for his team to play 20 games against opponents in such a tough conference. Really? They can't play a double round robin in 20 games anymore than they can in 18 games and by eliminating two games against outside competition the league loses 28 chances to prove just how tough they are.
