What was the score when those two played??
I know it is not about head to head, but Dook is in the ACC and their losses were coming against UNC and Wisky was beating up on big ten... |

Here are Dukes losses......
Pittsburgh
Wake Forest
Miami, Fl.
North Carolina
Clemson
Here are Wisky's losses......
Duke
Marquette
Purdue
Purdue
Sure, Duke beat Wisky back in Nov., wouldn't you say that teams change from that time to now? Wisky has not lost since Feb. 9th. In that time frame Duke has managed to get beat 4 times, with only one of them being to North Carolina. The loss to Wake Forest (by 13 points) is certainly not something that many 2 seeds have done this season.

I think there always will be a bias in favor of Duke as long as Mikey is there. Enough said... there already is a Duke hate thread. The Committee Chairman said they did not look at conference play was that everybody was an independent.  |

It's extremely difficult to win on the road in the Big Ten. In fact, that's the only reason that Ohio State beat Purdue and Michigan State at the end of the season. |

Coppin State plays one of the the toughest out of conference schedule in the country.
These were all road games:
Xavier
Ohio State
Dayton
Marquette
Indiana
Mizzouri
Kent State
Arizona State
I'm not saying that they deserve to be in the tourney, but you have to give them credit for playing all these teams on the road.
