chalk is 8-0...

if all the favorites won doesn't that mean that the selection comittee got it right?
no it means these shit at large teams that got in have no business in the tourney
keeping in mind, we're only 1/4 of the way through the first round, but we still haven't see a single close game right down to the wire. really crappy tourney so far. especially for anybody betting the dogs. like smitty. 
other then syracuse i dont think there are too many teams that didnt get in that would have had a shot today either.
Eventhough Drexel got smacked in the NIT I still think they would have done something possibly.....their performance in the NIT was clearly a letdown performance from not making it...atleast IMO. They were a solid team this year..especially on the road!
unfortunately the selection committee can't predict how well a team will perform on any given day and neither can anyone else. if we could, we would all be rich. hindsight is 20-20.
What is funny is Oral was up 28-22 towards end of 1st half.
Texas Tech actually had a 58-54 with about 11 minutes left.
Davidson was up 8 on Maryland and only down 3 with 3 minutes left.
Penn was up 2 with about 12 minutes left.
Even Belmont had a very early 7 point lead before getting bushwacked.
Old Dom had 27-24 lead in 2nd half.
Stanford and Ga Washington were never even close. You would have expected at least a couple of those dogs to cover. Only good thing is it's early in the week and still plenty of time to come back. I doubt the Dogs just start sweeping the board, but I expect them to make a comeback ...hopefully in the early games.:00hour
