put utah state in the tourney instead of air force - and utah state beats north carolina. put utah state in the tourney instead of UTEP - and utah state beats maryland. put utah state in the tourney instead of dayton - and utah state beats depaul. put utah state in the tourney instead western michigan - and utah state beats vanderbilt. put utah state in the tourney instead of byu - and utah state beats syracuse.
to me - utah state's snub is similar to what happened to butler in 2002 - a team that was probably a sweet 16 team left at home.
of the 5 teams i listed - utah state would be favored over all 5 of them.
then again - the big west has been f****d by the ncaa for some time now - so why stop here.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Heck, Utah St. would probably win the whole damn thing!
Utah St. was not snubbed. The Seminoles are much better than Utah St., along with a handful of other team in the NIT. Utah St. played FIVE teams in the RPI top 150 all season. FIVE!
