This is a short segment breaking down bids by conference. After the usual praise of the "Power Conferences", the host gives Greg Anthony a chance to build up the MWC as the best of the "Non-power conferences" and talk about UNLV. Instead, Anthony says nothing about the MWC and says the Atlantic 10 is the best of the rest and they should get 4 or even 5 bids to the NCAA tourney. :bug: I'm not sure who the 4th and 5th teams would be, but if they get 5 bids I don't see how they don't let in UNLV and SDSU and to keep it even . . . CSU. Seriously though, if the Atl-10 (15) gets considered for a 4th and/or 5th bid before UNLV and SDSU are in the tourney, I think I'll start tearing my eyes out.

(sorry the numbers are scrunched together - won't let me fix it)







At least they did say the Pac-10 would only be getting their auto-bid and no others. :lol:
