well sorry man, i really really wanted this team to get in the field and it is sickening feeling when you get left out.


Got the shaft in '01. Made it to the NIT final and won the SEC in '02.

I'm more disappointed than angry at this point. I wish there was some kind of published reasoning behind every selection though. I bet whatever they came up with for VCU and Clemson would be a fricking riot.

Not into BB much.. well.. not at all.. but I saw this on tidesports.

Looks like the selection committee was making a statement.

Look on the brightside. You aren't facing UNC 2nd round of the tourney. We got fricked over in 09


I was pulling for yall hard in that game. Awful officiating in favor of UNC if I recall correctly. Pissed me off.

Honestly, if I were in Bama's shoes, I'd go ballistic. Harvey Updyke would have nothing on me.

I am not into it as much as football, but I jokingly posted that. However, a small part of me believes it to be true. Bama deserved to be in the tourney looking at the whole picture of their season, and who the other at large bids were.

I'm done being angry. I'm somewhat over it now.

I know that nobody cares about the NIT, but I will be in Coleman watching Bama. It will be good for Releford and the other younger guys.

It's also good for the seniors to get in there and prove that they should have been given a shot. I hope they can make it to MSG.

I might post more since I know very little about BB. I am sure I can get someone to melt down...

I already started a NIT (8:00 ESPU) thread. Why did you decide to start a new one?
