Sweet 16 and more

It is about time for all the major conferences to shut their trap about more mid-major teams getting bids. Some coaches really need to stop complaining (Gary Williams especially). I think the MVC getting 4 bids was fair, and they probably should have had more. Two teams in the sweet 16, as many as the ACC. The big 10 is a no show. While a lot of people think this may change with the new NBA rule, I am not so sure. One or two freshmen are not going to change the dynamic. They are still freshmen afterall, and just see UNC yesterday for an example. 'Melo was an aberration and there are many more examples of one year wonders disappearing in the tournament. Now if these kids stay another couple years, then it will likely change. Until then, forget it.

As it is my bracket blows, and I will never join another pool unless it is free. In the next 10 years, a 16 will be a 1, and we will see a few more 15s winning. Not only that, but a team from a non-power conference will win the whole friggin thing.
