In response to PennFan10
To be fair, while it seems to get forgotten around these parts, Harvard in 2011 was pretty darn close to the bubble. If Kyle Casey hadn't missed the Michigan game (which they lost by three), Harvard probably makes the tourney as an at large. (The stupid way the NCAA calculates SOS - by opponent Ws and Ls - also played a huge role as well).
RPI 35
Top 50: 1-4
51-100: 2-1
At 2-3 vs. Top 50 and an RPI around 30, that would have been tough to ignore.
