The committee really needs to provide more clarity at what

criteria is most important. They seem to ignore overall NET w the bubble teams. They say that NCSU didn’t get in because of their lack of quality wins given their opportunities. They have the same quad1 record as Syracuse. They have a better overall record than Syracuse. Their NET is 9 spots higher than SU. They hammered SU in their only meeting. I really don’t think the way they looked at it is good for the ACC long term. You’re going to almost always get hammered home/away by the top 3-4 teams. Winning on the road against 1-15 in the ACC is hard in any year. Opportunities for quad 1 victories are not equitable across conferences. I also find it hysterical that SU is an 8 seed which means the NCAA selection committee has them at 29-32 yet they are counting up q1 #s based on them being 42/43 this possibly contradicting the very system they are using. Just one example - I’m sure there are more.

Agree ctigers.... definitely head scratching... Would be interesting to see if they could explain the selections without contradicting themselves many times !!

Mid-major teams are all the rage now.
I wish we could play their schedule. We would be 28-5 too.

Outside the top 8 conferences or so or expand to 128(1 more game)and start with all power 6 with .500 above records. For every 1 great first round cinderall upset there are 5-6 blowout duds. There have been a handful of sustained runs but nothing a .500 power conference school couldn’t do if given the same chance,

I feel bad for NcSt. Not a fan, but they deserved to be in, just like we should if we had beaten them.

It's accountability that all coaches ask of their players throughout their career bc it's the right thing to do. And the NCAA shows none in their process of why kids did or did not make the selection of the biggest games of their careers. It's a sad thing when they can't do the same of what is asked of the kids that they up hold the rules over!!!

I have no clue how the committee picked this group. How did UNC get such a weak bracket. Duke got a tough one, UVA has some team in it that could cause them fits.
It was like the mid-level choas nipped something and they decided to go mid-major (and I am tossing in the PAC12 nods as a mid-major).
It just seems odd that they really like teams that were questionable against top-tier talent but at the same time punished team that played a really hard schedule and came out the less for it.
Why is there such a gap between UVA/DUKE/UNCheat and FSU. I am scratching my head there. FSU should be a 3. Then you have Louisville/Cuse as a 7/8... how? And that is it? Buffalo is a great team and I want their coach... but as a 6? I just don't buy Houston right now.
Nancy State did get robbed.

NC state did get screwed. I dont agree on UNc though ..they get Auburn as a 5. Who has won 8 straight and 10 of 11 or They get KU as 4 and would have to play in KC...which is exactly where the Big 12 was just played. Then UK is a tough rivalry and they already lost to them and Iowa st as a 6, also possible in KC. Would be a lot of Cyclone fans and they just won Big 12 in that very same arena.

But all their bracket opponents are not the disrupting schemes for UNC (at least to my eye). And all teams in their group is flawed. Kansas is wounded and Auburn likely spent their run early.
The only "odd" one for UNC might be Washington, but they hhave lost to everyone with a pulse. Actually, Washington might be what Clemson would be if we played in the Pac10.

I'm really wondering why Ohio State is in

Lost to Illinois, Northwestern, Rutgers. Drilled by 35 by Purdue. 8-12 in conference, 55 Net ranking, 154 SOS, 3-7 in last 10.
And they get in cause why? They beat Cincinnati in the first game of the season?

Virtually every metric that was seldom if ever broken, was this year. High RPI, no problem. Sub-.500 record, piece of cake. Heading into the weekend, it was 'blah, blah, blah' that the PAC12 would have one team, since it was a dumpster fire league. Apparently, the fire was snuffed out and after a heavy dose of Fabreze, it smelled a heckuva lot better.
And then, when the dust settled and the ACC had three #1 seeds...how did that conference not also have: 1. The most teams 2. And have teams with .500 or better records not selected?
Jay Bilas closed out on that point yesterday saying the top 3 are why the rest of the conference will have losses...but that doesn't make them bad teams. He's right.
Bottom line: the selection process smell EXACTLY like the collegiate game and the cesspool it all resides in. I can do without this sport going forward...it's really quite easy. I see virtually no integrity within the game, administration, officiating...nothing.

It was crystal clear we had not even the remotest chance yesterday, so it really doesn't matter past that.

Clemson getting in or not...... it’s about the inconsistency of the committee and not sticking to what they were indicating .....all coaches depend on understanding criteria as it impacts how they schedule

so i think we would have made it in if we won that game but NCSU played spoiler for us. WE had them beat twice this year and gave it to them at the end both times. They had no business beating us this year. they were a scrub team.
