Long read, but worthy of at least a skimming if you're curious about the selection process prior to today's announcement.

How the Clowns Pick The Field

Rock, paper, scissors?

They have incorporated too many rules over the years. Just do a real S curve and call it a day.

Wonder if they will ever tell us why the UNCHEATS and PUKIES never leave the state first 4 tournament games?

I've always been an advocate that they release the selection S curve and then the selection show is going down the line and letting each coach pick their spot in the bracket. That way the weight of one team being significantly better than the rest could be seen by teams staying away from them, and an over seeded team could be challenged

I think the NCAA just takes Lunardi's last bracket and mixes up the match ups and some of the seeds so it doesn't look like they copied him.
