Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
Now that the brackets are announced, figure it makes sense to make a topic for the tournament itself. And, if you want to talk about the men's NIT, CIT or whatever, it can go in here too, instead of that poor Week 12 thread.
Looking at the Kenpom ratings, Oklahoma at 30 is the highest rated team that was left out. However, they had 15(!) losses, and ranked 283rd in luck. Wake Forest probably has a legitimate gripe (23-9, 37th).
As expected, PC has the highest discrepancy between "computer" rankings and seed. PC is seeded fourth, but is ranked 49th. Others near them in rankings are Iowa St. and Notre Dame (11 seed), and Marquette (9). If you're looking for teams that are underseeded, Houston is 4th in Kenpom, but got a five seed. UCLA is 8th in Kenpom, but a four seed, so that might be sturdier. Then again... It's single-elimination from here on out, so anything can happen.
I haven't really looked at the highest rated NET team that missed, because the NCAA site doesn't "highlight" like the Kenpom site does. If someone else wants to do the legwork on that, or link to a good article, feel free!

Houston is wild this season. They don’t have any quad 1 wins (playing in a mediocre conference is not great). But, they lost two key players to injury and have managed to keep it together.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
I live in the Houston metro region now, and they're a fun team to watch. It's not just that they've managed to survive this season - they've kicked the crap out of plenty of teams. They went to the Final Four last year, which would be a massive overachievement this year. (Last year's team had more talent.)

I was glad to see them get their revenge on Memphis today. They also have Josh Carlton, who is just a good dude. A lot of UConn fans still seem to root for him. I’ll always like Sampson for scheduling that home and home with URI a few years ago.SGreenwell wrote: ↑2 years agoI live in the Houston metro region now, and they're a fun team to watch.

Totally agree with you on Wake Forest , this is a team that definitely passes the eye test and we’re sitting pretty much in the field most of the year , it’s not like they collapsed down the stretch . It almost seemed like the committee looked too much into their BC loss in the tournament which was a tough loss in OT .SGreenwell wrote: ↑2 years ago Now that the brackets are announced, figure it makes sense to make a topic for the tournament itself.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
Look at Wake's schedule. Nothing from the non-conference. Best wins are Va Tech in December, UNC and ND. That's it. 3 wins against NCAA-tourney teams. ACC down this year. Sorry, this goes way beyond a loss to BC.reef wrote: ↑2 years agoTotally agree with you on Wake Forest , this is a team that definitely passes the eye test and we’re sitting pretty much in the field most of the year , it’s not like they collapsed down the stretch .

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
Can anyone understand how Tennessee was the second 3 seed with an 11-7 record against the quad 1 (wins over Arizona, Auburn and Kentucky×2
5-0 quad 2. No bad losses. Most quad 1 wins in the country. SEC tournament Champs and an SOS of 4th?
When Wisconsin sits there with a worse NET, worse SOS (20th) 2 quad 2 losses and 2 quad 3 losses.
Duke a two seed with only 6 quad one wins, 3 quad 2 losses, 1 quad 3 loss. Worse SOS (58) and worse NET.
This is quite possibly the clearest indication that there is bias involved.

They even said if Kentucky had beaten UT and won the SEC then they'd have been a 1 seed...just doesnt matter if UT does it?? Absolutely wild.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
Here is my idea in generating more interest in the NIT by merging it with elements of the NCAA tourney.
After the first round of the NIT, take the sixteen remaining teams and combined them with the the top 16 teams eliminated in the first round of the NCAA tourney. Develop the 16 match-up games through the usual seeding process. This would create another kind of selection Sunday. Take the final 8 teams to Madison Square Garden as opposed to the present set-up of four teams. Time the MSG games to be completed before the NCAA Final Four.
A actual mock-up of this concept can be done on this coming Sunday.

I wish the Mens NIT had 64 Teams like the WNIT has.
Women have 68 teams in the NCAA and 64 in the WNIT for 132 Total teams. Men have only 100 Total Teams (68 + 32). Not counting the CBI, CIT, etc.
Women's NIT increased from:
1998-started with 16
1999-went to 32
2007-went to 48
2010-went to 64
Do you think the NIT will increase to 64 or at least 48?
Think they should?

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
While this would improve the NIT field substantially, I also think it's a bit of a logistical nightmare for the administrators of the events, and also, the coaches and players involved. Also, if you're an NCAA #1 seed and get bounced by an #8, I kind of doubt you want to sign up for some NIT games.Obadiah wrote: ↑2 years ago Here is my idea in generating more interest in the NIT by merging it with elements of the NCAA tourney.

I'm with Ramster in that I wish the NIT would go back to a 64 team field. I think part of the fun of the postseason is seeing how random match-ups turn out, like the second place team with 25 wins from a crap conference vs. the eighth place team from a power conference. I also think the NCAA tournament "play in" games are stupid. Keep it at 64, or go to 96, if you really want to include more teams. Forcing AQ and "last four in" teams to eliminate themselves strikes me as unfair.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
I don't know what you mean by logistical nightmare. NCAA bound teams do not know where they are going until 6 PM on Selection Sunday and this arrangement would be no different. Also, your #1 getting bounce is an emotional issue and you ignore the pull of "redemption", also an emotional issue. Besides, in this set-up any team has the right to refuse and given there are 32 eliminated teams in the NCAA first round, there would be no problem in finding the best 16 teams willing to participate.SGreenwell wrote: ↑2 years agoWhile this would improve the NIT field substantially, I also think it's a bit of a logistical nightmare for the administrators of the events, and also, the coaches and players involved.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
The NIT is viewed as a second tier tournament for the "Not Invited Teams". It garners little general fan interest. I do not think it really makes much money for the NCAA organization or participating teams. From a financial perspective the NCAA and its members would be far better served by increasing the extremely revenue rich NCAA Tournament field with more games. Each NCAA Tournament game has meaning as its victor could possibly be the national champion.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
There are 345 schools playing D1 basketball and there is one Kansas and a few other schools in that prestige category. Again, schools have the right to turn down the invite. I prefer an open mind and do not pretend to speak for the motivations/desires of other schools, the majority of which have varying results from season to season. Because of that you have top schools playing in the NIT in the first place, just like UNC when URI played against that team in the NIT semifinals in NYC in 2010. Also, if Villanova gets upset by Delaware on Friday, how do you know that they would turn down such a redemption opportunity. This concept would also give impetus for snubbed teams, like Texas A&M, to prove NCAA wrong by then beating a team that did get invited. The possibility of having an NIT winner that also played in the NCAA has some intrigue.Rhody15 wrote: ↑2 years agoLet’s say a Northern Iowa type team hits a clutch shot and upsets #1 overall seed Kansas/another blue blood in the second round.Obadiah wrote: ↑2 years agoI don't know what you mean by logistical nightmare.

BTW, this idea is not based on "money", but on creating interest, giving the NIT added meaning and giving a special twist to the season's end. Expanding the NCAA may be a good idea, but it's just the same with more teams.

The NIT went to 40 teams with 16 teams playing an opening round and 24 having a bye. I think in the mid 2000s - for a year or two? Then went back to 32

This game was the perfect example of why I had zero interest in Grasso and his gimmick system. Biggest game in program history and you have one of your worst defense games of the year. And in case you think it was more about Wright State, this was their second highest point total of the season. You couldn't try and play any defense?

Dayton wins at Toledo 74-55 - Had to play on the road as #1 seed because UD Arena is hosting NCAA First Four. Would host until NYC if they advance.
St Louis loses at home to N Iowa 80-68
A-10 is 3-1 in the first round of the NIT (SBU and VCU both won on Monday)
Dayton wins at Toledo 74-55 - Had to play on the road as #1 seed because UD Arena is hosting NCAA First Four. Would host until NYC if they advance.

Re: Men's Postseason Tournament Talk 2021-22
Wow. Rutgers- Notre Dame going to double OT. Not bad for 2 teams that could easily have been in the first four out.

Wow! What a finish!
Ron Harper, Jr with a game tying 3 with 22 seconds left. Then Atkinson layup for the winner after an offensive rebound with 1.4 seconds left. ND wins 89-87.
