Texas managed to play the worst two teams in the country based on NET.

Here's who they beat OOC. Best team by more than 50 spots was St Joe's at 76. 9 OOC wins vs teams ranked worse than 130. 6 of those worse than 230. That is pathetic. NCSU 132 Cuse 133 Houston Christian 287 Chicago State 358 MVSU 364 St Joes 76--congrats!!! NMSU 143 Arkansas Pine Bluff 363 U New Orleans 346 NW State 230

UNC does not belong in NCAA tournament
BAMAHOKIE • 03/16/25 10:47 PM ET
The UNC that plays defense deserves to be in.
OrlandoHokie • 03/17/25 11:13 AM ET
Nope...but I will pull them against any SEC team**
Tuckahokie • 03/17/25 08:54 AM ET
Disagree, UNC is a better squad than the last 5 SEC teams in the field
soflahokie • 03/17/25 08:54 AM ET
^^This^^ UNC belongs, whether I really like it or not

Half the Big XII was like this last year

This was driven by TV execs. They understand the value of brands.
Femoyer Hokie • 03/17/25 08:15 AM ET
I'd be upset IF it bumped-out VT, but getting another ACC
VT757to276 • 03/17/25 08:22 AM ET
Makes us relevant? Is that the thought?**
JackDSML • 03/17/25 11:28 AM ET
IMO..Qualifying for the tourney is goal 1
VT757to276 • 03/17/25 11:36 AM ET
The same is true.....
2hhoop3 • 03/17/25 08:21 AM ET
Yep. Some/many want to see them lose to a Cinderella team. "Must see TV".**

UNC AD is the Selection Committee Chair
Walkin` Willie • 03/17/25 06:58 AM ET
Or if the ACC's rep for the selection committee is from WF...

TomTurkey • 03/17/25 12:40 PM ET
Agree. But they still might make the Sweet 16.
KCHokie2 • 03/17/25 06:53 AM ET
Yes they do. It's Texas that doesn't belong.
HokieAl • 03/16/25 10:55 PM ET
I don't think either belonged. Texas way worse than UNC, IMO.
reestuart • 03/17/25 12:13 PM ET
Read this after I posted above under sofla. Egregious Texas isn't getting

One of those embrace the power of “and” situations…

I think just WVU, but then Ohio State had an almost identical resume as TU
reestuart • 03/17/25 01:01 PM ET
WVU yes, Indiana is absolute garbage, nothing about them says NCAAT
soflahokie • 03/17/25 09:24 AM ET
They’re all crap at the bottom…
Gator Hokie • 03/17/25 10:27 AM ET
Remember those years when VT finished 4th in the ACC, and were left out?
EDGEMAN • 03/17/25 05:59 AM ET
I remember one of the snubs and that idiot AD from OSU said they also...
