Yeah, it sucks that these teams get underseeded. The nice thing, however, is that you still have a chance to play for it, unlike college football.

Yeah, but when the first game you play in and each subsequent win mean millions of dollars each over a multi-year period, it all begins to add up fast, either in favor of your conference or in favor of another...

This could be labelled a $20MM screw-job, and it's happening every year.....

I really hate the BcS, and how it carryovers into BBall.

Word. At least ESPN is using the term 'power conferences' this year instead of 'bcs conferences' like they were doing last year. I wonder if there is an evaluation period for the mwc becoming a power conference in 2012. joke.

I think ESPN is calling them the "Big 6 conferences", which makes the rest of us little. I hate it all the way around. It is exclusionary, belittling, and not reality. The PAC10 is the Little 1 in football and in hoops this year.
