But we also had years of evidence that committee weighed SOS more

Every year, the undefeated G5 teams with the weak schedules ended up substantially lower in CFP rankings than in AP poll.

Honestly, it sucked, but it wasn't a surprise, given that they do it every year. Just two different groups with slightly different areas of emphasis.

A committee works better anyways when the amount of teams is higher

Also a bigger committee and an actual tournament not just a popularity contest

Hoops is what different. Can’t really even compare them.

So BYU deserves a 9 seed right now but will get a 14 or not in at all??

I don’t think we were ever a lock for a NY6. Just hopeful for fairness.

Had the CFP rankings reflected the AP rankings we would have been.

Big 12, Big Ten, SEC, ACC. These are always the contenders. Am I missing one?

We couldn’t even beat “Coastal Carolina”. Who cares if we weren’t ranked fairly?

1/23/21 5:38pm

And Iowa State couldn’t even beat *checks notes*

We were never a shoo-in. Irrational exuberance took hold too soon.
