There is none.

They also said before today they already chose the last spot for either NC State or Arkansas.
BEFORE THE GAMES HAPPENED.
Since NC State lost ARK got the bid
HOW DUMB :twobirds:
-
That unbalanced league excuse is complete crap, because Arkansas only had to play Tennessee, Florida and Vandy once.
-
The hypocrisy is absolutely sickening. So does the performance by a team in the conference tournament bear weight or not? For some but not all? Valid for an NC State and a sub .500 in conference Arkansas team, but was meaningless for a Texas Tech team drilled by 21 in the quarters.
The process is corrupt, inconsistent, and inequitable. And it's time somebody exposes the fraud for what it is.
If this is indeed true about Weiberg and the Big XII, I hope Kietzman makes this ugly.

Selection criteria is bogus. Every year, the sports pundits, etc. always say the Committee is making a statement about what teams need to do to be selected. Then certain teams get selected out of the blue and other teams that seem to be in are out. I've suspected for a while that the Committee either pulls names out of a hat or plays a "pin-the-tail" type game to make its selections. There's no formula, model, luck, etc.
The best thing K-State can do, and this is true in any sport, is simply win. And win a bunch.
Go Cats!

This year's selection committee formula....just released.
1. Conference champions.
2. Top 25
2b. RPI
3. Get on knees and blow certain coaches.
4. Each remaining team is represented by a committee member. Russian roulette until seeds are filled.
5. Profit.

arkansas = sec = cbs contract conference = ncaa tournament broadcaster
The 18 win stanford one is inexplicable
Against common opponents, we were 3-1, they were 3-3
We beat Cal, USC, and TT and lost to TT
They beat TT , USC and Cal, then lost to Cal and USC twice.
Never mind the fact that they lost 6 of their last 9 and 4 of their last 5
Or the fact that they finished 6th in their league
Or their 10-8 (that's a 1 pt win over washington away from being .500 in conference) vs our 10-6 record
or their 4 fewer wins and 2 more losses.
Their record was under .500 against tourney teams that aren't #1 seeds, we were .500 (and unofficially over .500 with a win over Marquette in a scrimmage).

Actually we lost to Cal
