8th seed
 

If you had told me after the losses to Lamar and BSU that we would end up 8th seed in the NCAA tournament, I would not have believed it for a second.

Arkansas. How can a team that goes 7-9 in their conference get an at-large bid. Freaking ridiculous.

It's because of their conference. I don't understand the love that some conferences receive. The MVC for one.

I don't understand some of the seeding. Duke is a 6? USC a 5? Stanford an 11 seed? They shouldn't have even earned a bid.

Personally I am fine with an 8 seed. But playing as an 8 seed in Xavier's backyard? It seems kind of low based on all of the projections as well. I thought a 7 for UNLV was kind of a low seed.

Arkansas? I thought you were talking about Duke.

The MVC gets love because their conference RPI is high, because the perform in the tournament (or at least have lately) and because, especially this year they had a bunch of great out of conference wins, which is noticeably lacking in some of the BCS schools resumes.

I was absolutely furious when I saw that we got an 8. I was not surprised. What is truly outrageous though is UNLV as a 7, Creighton with a 10, while Vanderbilt has a 6, USC has a 5, Virginia has a 4. I wonder why they even try to appear as if they are objective. Clearly they are not.

Not only an 8th seed, but to get in the same bracket as Ohio State! Ouch.
