In response to HARVARDDADGRAD
The NCAA/NIT seems to use ratings when it benefits the power conferences, and "judgment" in favor of the power confs when the ratings support mid majors. In the event that Harvard has, and takes advantage of, a third match with Princeton, one would hope that the Ivies would get two bids this year. But, there are very few who believe that that would happen. How many of us who have followed the latter half of the season closely still don't think that Princeton is among, say the top 50 teams nationally? But, the bid that it arguably should get for the quality of its play and league record will go to some 6 th or 7 th place team in the Big10(?) or ACC.
Well, at my age I know that nature is indifferent to such small concerns. But, there is lots of $ involved, something that even bball fans understand.
