Message: [QUOTE="zls44, post: 3084099, member: 32"] This was almost worse for the AAC, since UConn/UL 1/2 is sorta meaningless: [URL="http://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/26296967/why-uconn-got-no-2-seed-2019-women-ncaa-basketball-tournament"]Why UConn got a No. 2 seed in 2019 women's NCAA basketball tournament[/URL] "As a No. 12 seed, UCF was the last at-large team chosen for the field, despite the fact that the Knights finished the season at No. 15 in the RPI. This is the worst seed for a team that high in the RPI in history. As an automatic qualifier out of the West Coast Conference in 2012, Gonzaga, which was 12th in the RPI, received an 11-seed. That's the best comparison. Had it not made the committee's cut, UCF would have been by far the highest-rated RPI team ever left out of the field. USC, with an RPI of 36 in 2010, was the last team in a remotely similar scenario that did not get selected." [/QUOTE]
