    LOL.

    I'm not sure but I think Ariz St could have stayed within 2 td's and a FG of Purdue.

    wasn't sure how Purdue would play with a mostly frosh/soph lineup but this is woodshed style so far

    If the selection committee was smart, they would have pitted Baylor against Ken State.

    Are you trying to dispute the fact that those 2 conferences are easily the 2 best conf's this year?

    Don't need to be a homer to think that...

    I am obviously a homer but it's pretty clear Virginia Tech has a bigger gripe than any of the schools you mentioned.

    you guys are clueless... they are in because they deserved to be in, doesn't matter what happens in this game... Purdue is clearly a better team... they were 15-3 in the Big 10 and beat Wisconsin twice... they have 4 natl top 100 freshman and some solid sophomores, including the Big 10 defensive POY... it doesn't help we are shooting like shit, even missing wide open looks, which is very unusual for us...

    and FTR I picked Purdue in almost all my brackets... and we have been a 2nd half team all year, this one is obv over tho

    every year a bunch of Big East homer's come in and say how awesome their conference is and every year (other than the Carmelo Anthony experiment) they don't even get w/in a wiff of the championship.

    You're DEEPER than any other conference, but not better.

    I wouldnt say they deserved to be in, at least over any of the other bubbles...What were they the 4th or 5th best team in an avg Big 12 conf this year? Their biggest win is vs Notre Dame who is maybe the 5th best team in the Big East. Come on now.

    I dont' care if you bash on a team's play, but saying that a team that obv. deserves to be in the tourney shouldn't b/c of thier play in one game is rediculous.

    Forget the NIT, they couldn't beat the worst team in their own conference when it really counted.

    baylor deserved to be in. they are a much better team than what they are showing today. i still think purdue is the better team, but baylor definitely deserves to be here thats for sure.

    people are just ignorant about purdue, waco hit the nail on the head.

    wow you guys are really showing your supreme basketball knowledge in this thread... LOL

    one bad half and you guys throw a good season out the window... hilarious

    Baylor had one bad loss all season long, how many of the bubble teams can say that? not to mention they had the better RPI and SOS than the teams you guys are referencing

    no shit...such a big east homer...c'mon peeps, you're better than this. Baylor SUCKS today...but you're making shit up now to discredit them being in a tournament that they fully deserve to be in.
