Seth Davis is a staple when it comes to the NCAA Tournament selection show on CBS. He is one of the analysts with other guys like Jay Wright, Clark Kellog and Adam Zucker as they reveal what teams made and didn’t make the NCAA Tournament.
Every year, fans and analysts all across the country like to argue about a team that didn’t deserve to be in, as well as teams that should have been in. This year is no different, as the most shocking team to make the tournament was North Carolina despite going only 1-12 in games against Quadrant-1 teams.
During the Selection Show, Davis talked about the team he felt deserved to be in the bracket the most that was left out.
“Indiana is the one that sticks out to me,” Davis said. “They had a win at Michigan State, at home against Purdue. 4-13 in Quad-1, so more than North Carolina. And unlike North Carolina, Indiana didn’t have any losses outside of Quad-1. North Carolina had a great non-conference SOS… but the bottomline is only one Quad 1 win to Indiana’s four.”
The bracket will never have all fan bases mad, but the fact that North Carolina was invited is definitely the biggest talking point of the Last Four In/First Four Out. The games begin on Tuesday with 2 of the 4 First Four games.
“Indiana is the one that sticks out to me… North Carolina had a great non-conference SOS… but the bottomline is only one Quad 1 win to Indiana’s four.”
