The fact that Air Force only played one RPI top 50 team says all you need to know....Then you have Tennessee with a freakin' 2 seed..What in the **** were they thinkin' this year?

Like they saying on ESPN, nobody thinks Tennessee actually got a 2 seed.  Everyone was in consensus that they received it where sometimes teams have to be moved up or down a seedline for some reason or another.

Florida State has one of the bottom 20 non conference schedules in the nation, so I think the committe made an example to teams from now on to schedule some good teams before getting into conference play...

Air Force shouldn't have been in but neither should Cincy. 

Missouri St. had the highest RPI ever not to make the dance.  RPI 19

Your right catdawg, but the MVC was the most over inflated RPI conference EVER!

I think Cincy should of been in, and I also think it is insane to put uconn,north carolina,michigan st., illinois,and tennessee all in the same region. Not to mention putting Kentucky in there with them I wish they would of put us in the same region as Duke.

I dont know about that. Maybe though. It may be that the NCAA now owns the NIT and they wanted people to watch that tourny too! Well if thats the case then it worked. That is a tough field of teams! Maryland, Cincinatti, Louisville, and Michigan the #1 seeds!  South Carolina, Notre Dame, Western Kentucky, Charlotte, and Missouri St.!!  What a field!

Could it be a conspiracy of the NCAA to try and get more people to watch the NIT??
