      Re: BracketBuster

      Do you think that the BracketBuster selection committee will pair South Dakota State and St. Marys together? Its makes sense since SDSU will already be in Californa that week playing Cal State Bakersfield. A Wolters and Delledova matchup would be great!

      Nope. I'll be surprised if Creighton is not at Saint Mary's. Not sure yet on South Dakota State. We will unveil the selections on the BracketBuster special at 6:30 p.m. EST Monday on ESPNU.

            If I was Belmont I'd be beyond angry if I got Denver, who has an RPI 100 spots worse than theirs.

                There is the possibility that a good idea has become more political. If there was complete equity or at least the appearance of equity, Bracketbuster would still have some life. Some teams may not want to risk a loss against an "inferior" opponent or conference. The desire for some is still give me a chance against a good nonconference foe so I might juice up my attraction as a quality program. Without the crystal ball to begin the season, everyone was on the schedule for the game regardless of the season's success. There still may be a spot for this type of event, but it may be better next time or it may be a version of conference matchups similar to the Big 6(e.g. Big 10vACC showdown). Conference commissioners need to get that void filled.

                    We must remember that a similar "committee" seeded the FCS playoffs and also does the NCAA MBB & WBB brackets!!

                      This event is run by ESPN, not NCAA. ESPN is about making money, not saving money for the schools. NCAA has to reimburse schools for FCS playoffs, that is why the paired SDSU and NDSU together.

                          I hate to be brutally honest but SDSU vs Niagra is a long way from national TV worthy. Who would watch that outside of. SD? That matchup would be a shame.

                              It'd be a huge slap in the face to State. Not that we really 'deserve' the recognition based on history, but I think the team has earned the right to play a national televised game against a good team.

                                It's not like that has never happened before.
