Doug Foolerton - Big Sky commissioner was on the committee, I wouldn't expect anything less than a complete & total disaster for anything he is involved in. Conference expansion, Big Sky TV, Montana State :lol:

Seriously? Colorado's RPI is in the 70s. Their non-conference schedule was terrible.

There are other teams that should have gotten in over VCU, though, like St. Mary's or Harvard.

Wofford goes to Denver to play BYU on Thursday.
Joseph Smith vs John Wesley
Mormons vs Methodists
Terriers win by the trinity :thumb: :thumb:

but seriously, we were able to somewhat contain Goudelock from C of C, and beat C of C without their big man, hopefully the same scenario will play out against these Cougars

I think you will have your hands full in this one. It will depend on which BYU team shows up, the one from the conference semi-final or the final. The one that showed up at the final is beatable, the one from the semis will be tough to beat. Best of luck and I am one of the few people in the state not saying "Who the fetch is Wofford?" right now. :nod: :D

Agree on Harvard, but St. Mary's...eh.

No reason not to like your chances. :thumb: Me personally, I think the loss has been more mental than anything. He spent a lot of time on the bench in foul trouble from what little I saw BYU play this year. As Fredette goes, the game will go for BYU. :twocents:
