Not fair!Marist is in a weak conference like us and their strength of schedule is about the same or a little bit better or worse than us and they get a 7 seed at 31-2. They did beat Nebraska and Utah who's rpi was in the low 20's to high 30's and those two teams didn't even win their conference titles. We beat Xavier who won the A-10 conference and JMU who was second in the CAA conference (JMU going to the WNIT) and LU beat ETSU who won their conference title and is in the dance. I believe we definitely deserve a better seed but oh well.

All that matters is your team's resume, and our resume is better than a 12 seed much less a 12 seed that has to play on the opposing team's home floor.
