Bubble Watch

Agreed. And that’s why the committee should have had OU in because could have actually made a run. Why not give the last spot to a talented team playing top 20 basketball for last 2 months of season in the best conference? College baseball committee did it a few years ago for Ole miss, and they ended up winning it all.

The bubble logic is not very logical or consistent. Fact is we should be better than this as a program though.

So you’re saying 4-5 teams didn’t deserve to get it.

Yes

Last two months? It was one month.

Last two months? It was one month.

A month and a week is more accurate but still my point stands. Why not put a team who is playing its best ball when pretty much everything else is equal?

Then why play the regular season? What’s the purpose of teams playing a noncon schedule? And I think in the eyes of the committee, things weren’t equal. We had dug ourselves such a hole that we needed that one more win to get in the field. I think there is a reason every bracketologist had us out. There was obviously enough separation that it was easy for those folks because I don’t think they have ever been unanimous like they were this year.
