SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default This year may prove the selection committee hates BYU

It pains me to say it but I think if BYU wins the tournament in Vegas (I still hate how Vegas gets the home court every year) it deserves a no less than no. 6 seed, maybe 4 or 5. It ran away from the conference title, and under my scenario would have won the tournament. Moreover, winning at Louisville was a solid "quality win," even though Louisville now is not the same team it was then. Louisville finished in sole possession of second place in the Big East (Louisville came within three points of winning the Big East outright Saturday, losing at Georgetown by 3). Louisville is probably easily one of the ten best teams in the country now. If BYU gets a less than 8 seed then yes, I agree the committee hates BYU (though I've thought claims of bias were BS in the past).
