UNC gets an 8 seed, and Virginia is out of the tournament.<br /><br />The reason to play good OOC games is to build up your overall resume against good teams, not to get an advantage over that one specific team you play.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9072987.post-90485079177890213702010-01-29T10:16:35.922-05:002010-01-29T10:16:35.922-05:00Dan Holmes,

What is the point of having non conference games if the head to head results are ignored?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9072987.post-64459574031216023032010-01-28T17:31:27.095-05:002010-01-28T17:31:27.095-05:00By acknowledging that there is a difference betwee...By acknowledging that there is a difference between home and road performance, you've already pointed out the main reason why a head to head matchup on a non-neutral court is not at all an apples to apples matchup.Dan Holmeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17714905932973229494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9072987.post-5476729025219160202010-01-28T16:14:44.529-05:002010-01-28T16:14:44.529-05:00That makes zero sense.

Teams earn bids based on an entire resume, not just one game or one head-to-head win. Charlotte's win over Louisville was nice, but the 49ers were not at-large worthy until this week.Bracketology 101https://www.blogger.com/profile/01277396896660963269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9072987.post-36469740128172358162010-01-28T12:49:27.934-05:002010-01-28T12:49:27.934-05:00To be fair, i commented on your blog a couple week...To be fair, i commented on your blog a couple weeks ago that Charlotte should have been in over Louisville. But you guys chose to ignore the Charlotte road win at Freedom Hall. You guys were not the first to realize Charlotte belonged in. Why do you guys ignore head to head matchups?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
