The 2014 Edition of My Team Got Screwed by the Selection Committee Thread

Re: The 2014 Edition of My Team Got Screwed by the Selection Committee Thread

Fine. If I'm Adrian or SNC I'm doing everything in my power to make sure that my last four regular season games consist of a series each against Northland and Finlandia. Get those four wins, get past the 1st round opponent, and at the absolute worst I'm looking at 6-1 in my L25.[/QUOTE

I guess that would be your choice. I would rather play quality teams and be battle tested for the play off run. As a team all you can do is play the games you have been scheduled to play.
 
Re: The 2014 Edition of My Team Got Screwed by the Selection Committee Thread

I like the idea of the L25 and it should carry some weight. There is a saying "What have you done for me lately". The L25 shows if a team is on the rise or is falling down on the stretch run. A team that has a 20-5 record that has lost five games during the course of the season should be given more consideration over a team that loses the final five games. For some teams it may take a portion of the season to jell and get their chemistry together.

The NCAA already has a means of selecting hot teams via a small subset of games at the end of the season: conference playoffs. With the exception of WIAC/ECACW champs that don't earn a Pool B slot, every team contending for Pool C has fallen during the stretch run. Pool C is intended to consider the season as a whole, jelling time included. Turning it into a best-of-seven for any teams with kinda-similar criteria trivializes the work those teams put in to distinguish themselves via various, more comprehensive other metrics.

I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't hear anything until Monday.

Somehow I don't think they forgot to move their clocks ahead one half-hour.
