Just what America needs: another self-impressed bracket "expert." As if we didn't have enough dopes telling us who they thought should be the #13 seed in the _______ bracket.

Can't be happy for a fellow Hoya fan??? No, I'm just happy I beat Lunardi...He is not the all-knowing Bracket-God that people make him out to be |

I think Geedell's accuracy shows that if you're smart, have a passion for college basketball and put in the time to understand the seeding and pod systems, you can pretty much nail the bracket. That said, it seems to me to underscore what a poor job this year's selection committee did.
Geedell, I'm guessing the teams you missed were in the Cincy, Hofstra, Utah St., AFA group? Lunardi probably missed those as well. Packer and Nantz were shocked. And so on and so forth.
At some point, we need to realize this isn't rocket science. I understand different people have different opinions. On some level, though, this committee simply got it wrong.
I feel pretty bad for those seniors at Hofstra, Cincy, etc. who have a pretty legit complaint that they got robbed of their final NCAA Tournament experience.

The selections were VERY inconsistent...Utah St and Air Force got in for finishing second place in their leagues and then they went on to say that they don't look at how many teams come out of a particular conference. I can't believe the majority of men in the room thought that putting Utah St and Air Force (especially) was the right thing to do...I just don't |

He has his gig and he markets himself like crazy. |
