How do the Gopher's win the Regular Season title, and go into the B1G tournament ranked #8 in the country, and then win the B1G conf tournament Title, and yet only get a #4 seed in the NCAA tourney, and get put in the same Region as Stanford, a team we've already played?
Am I the only one who sees this as a major slap in the face, a major, "F you B1G Conf, we think you suck"
I mean, a top 8 ranked team that goes 3-0 to win their Conf Tourney, should get at #2 seed. Why would they not?
I mean, maybe you could argue that other teams ranked lower than them did more in their conf tournaments to impress the selection committee, but I can't see how they could EVER justify dropping them down 2 whole seeds???
Maybe I am one of those wacko conspiracy theory guys, but this seems like some Anti-B1G conf bias to me, or Anti-Minnesota bias or something?
Am I wrong or can any of you Gopher Soccer fans out there explain to me how the Gophers deserved to be so disrespected????
