They got better like Vanderbilt but that doesn't matter to the powers to be in the NCAA.
Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson
If both Vandy and Morehead State win their next game, would they then play each other at Vanderbilt?

Perhaps Clemson checked out? I didn’t see the game but I heard the had a strong case to make the ncaa tournament. Anyways, if we beat Michigan we can host a third and final NIT game before vegas.

Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson
recent news was that fans have been calling for clemson's coach to be fired since they didn't get into the dance (again). this won't help his cause.

Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson
In one word, YES
Vandy is the #2 seed
Yes and No.
I think the game would move to Orleans Arena
I'm gonna edit this one more time. The quarterfinals will stay in Nashville if we win to that point.

The fact that Morehead State didn't just beat Clemson, but deleted them, is incredible.
I'd be scared out of my mind to play Morehead.

Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson
IMO, Clemson was one team that had a bigger gripe than us. They were the 4 seed in the ACC and whipped NC State decisively TWCE late in the season, including once in Raleigh. Yet NC State got in and Clemson got the finger. Story is very similar- mediocre to bad play in December (including a loss to South Carolina) and a bad road conference loss late in the season (Louisville).
The NET is simply a flawed* metric as a slow start effectively seals a team’s fate. Early games seem to carry more weight than games in the end (the reverse of what ought to happen) and a team’s early rating puts in place a lot of inertia. The “committee” has got to do better.
On the plus side, VU is on a path to Vegas without leaving Memorial.
*Not the first word that came to mind. Not even the first f word.

Boy, there sure are a lot of high NET rated teams dropping like flies. Mountain West dreamboat team Nevada is getting doubled up by Arizona State at the half.
Glad to see the committee doing such a fine job...

Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson
I wonder what that margin of victory did to Morehead's NET...

It was anounced before the game Coach will be back. Fans are not that upset: all eyes are on Dabo and football.
