We could get that 6.....respect for VCU - our resume is as good or better. Recent form, not so much.

VCU getting a #5 and Dayton getting a #11 .. I think we end up with a #7 seed.

Dayton OSU, kind of feels like UMass Oklahoma State. Committee is thinking about matchups with twists/history

Our resume supports a 6. It's the bullshit criteria that comes into play every year that might get us.

Its clear all the anti A-10 lobbying from other conferences had no impact on the committee.

VCU should be a little pissed though, I think two commentators already called for Stephen Austin to upset them. And you know they were watching and heard that.

Shaka is smart enough to use that.

Not clear yet.....they showed respect to Dayton and VCU, both a slot or two ahead of where I thought they'd be. That might be offset by the rest of the teams...

Nah, Dayton was the only questionable team. The fact that they are not even a play in shows huge respect for the A-10.
