A brief JODY on the Far From Final Four..
#1
the Final Four teams are: Indiana State, Utah, Seton Hall and Georgia. 
*Three of those teams were clear bubble teams for the NCAA tournament. One was not. 
*Three of those got into the NIT without the benefit of a team opting out. One didn't. 
*The NET rankings in order are 28, 48, 67 and 100. Guess who is 100?

We'd have had the same or better record if we had played their schedule.  They played five teams with a pulse all season.  They got spanked by Alabama, they got beat relatively soundly by Michigan State (RPI 52), and they lost 2 out of 3 to Drake (RPI 12), and they beat Bradley (RPI 42).  I don't buy that they got screwed by the NCAA.  They played a weak schedule in a weak conference and put up a lot of wins against crappy teams.

You make a good case.  I was just looking at the NET ranking.

Dawgs were +5000 to win it all at the start of the tournament.  Wake was the favorite at +600.  Indiana State and Seton Hall were both +900.

The odds have been updated for the final four.  We are still the long shot.
