You beat Purdue, a 1 seed. 40 NET. And you're passed up by Nevada, ASU, or Pitt? Bulls*** of the highest degree. You deserved a 10 or 11. Hell I didn't even think you'd be down to the play in game but I am just shocked. Give them hell in the NIT I guess but it still is not right.
Hawkeye here- I am disgusted

Thanks, this is the committee undoing what they did last year when they put RU in with a very messed up resume. Have a good tournament.
Appreciate it, hawk_a_holic. -Man, what a kick in the nads. Was really looking forward to being part of the Big Dance.
That said, genuinely wish you guys all the best in the tourney. -You've got one tough squad there and I think you can do some real damage. ...Do the B1G proud.

Providence hasn't exactly lit it up in the last 6 weeks. Won 2 games against teams not named Georgetown.
we also beat OSU on the road but refs wiped the "W" off our ledger. . B1G admitted it. Committee didn't care.
No, it was a tie breaker. Never said which way it would impact. Apparently they counted it as another bad loss...
I also beieve you guys should be in
And we probably don't have a hangover effect and lose to SHU. The ref cost us 2 games IMO
Refs cost us 1 game. We cost us the hall let down
Tough to take 9 teams from a conference that ***** the bed in the tournament every year too. Hope you are a part of fixing that.
Best of luck to the Boilermakers...hope you guys get on a roll.
Time to just root like hell for the rest of the Big Ten teams in the dance except for Penn State.
Sorry that you guys got screwed. Just not right. Pitt, Nevada, NC St and others didn’t have to play anywhere near the opponents Rutgers did. 10 wins + a BTT win in this league should have been more than enough. Go win the NIT in front of a home crowd at MSG.
And Let UNC sit it out and “play with themselves.”

Last season we had the weak net but great wins. I don't see that for some others that got in today. Criteria shifts every year.
You guys got screwed too in terms of having to play Auburn in Birmingham. But at least you're in.
I told my nephew one year quad 1 wins matter more than quad 3 or 4 losses. They claim to look at whole body of work. Everyone in the world knows we beat Ohio State even though it shows as L on record.
Complete screw job by committee
They will go far. Tough as nails. Shooting lights out. Excellent coach. Veteran team. Don't hate, appreciate. I respect them.
It's time to stop wallowing in self-pity. Rutgers is not a victim here. They had four horrible losses at the end of the season (Nebraska, Michigan, Northwestern, Minnesota). End of story.
Let's win the NIT.
