Murray State proving they belonged in the tourney.

Don't agree. Aside from being on the wrong end of the split w/ Belmont, they beat nobody who made the field. They only played 2 other games against teams who made the dance (Xavier & Valpo), & got their clock cleaned (@ XU by 37 & home vs. Valpo by 35) in both. I know they peeled off that 25 in a row streak before the loss to Belmont, & it looked good on the surface, but there was next to no actual substance to it. IMO, Miami got jobbed worse than they did.

And had some bad losses, to boot. They absolutely did not belong.
