Message: [QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 5197556, member: 71"] Forgetting everything else, we were a three seed in that tournament (which means we would have been at worst the 12th team on the committee's S curve when they filled out the field). As 37 schools received at-large bids that year, we would have had to have jumped at least 25 spots if we weren't in the tournament prior to the BE tournament. Additionally, eleven BE schools made that tournamrnt. We were the ninth seed in the BE tournament, which, if no non-conference results were considered we still would have been in. In non-conference play that year we were undefeated and won the Maui Invitational, beating Michigan St & Kentucky, who both were ranked the entire season and spent time in the top five. We were nowhere near the bubble when that BET started. [/QUOTE]
