True. And I like that.  Last season UConn was a top 3 SOS team on multiple stat sites until the conference tournaments when the P-4 tournaments are played and the top teams end up playing each other. The odd thing is that the committee often won't penalize a top team that loses early in their tournament. It seems every year I read [I]"U of Z lost to an unranked U of X in the 1st round of the AB conference tournament but that won't change their seeding according to the committee". [/I]Why should[I] a [/I]loss in a conference tournament in March count less than a loss in November? The NCAA could do a big favor for the conferences if they counted conference tournament games double regular season games. I can remember when the ACC mens tournament was better than the NCAA's.

I suppose seeding with a field of 350+ and very little in the way of common opponents is never going to appear fair. I played in a lot of seeded golf tournaments but the seeding was determined in a qualifying round. Good players who had a bad qualifying round still whined about their seed but it was fair.
