Pitt highest ranked 10-seed

Based on the rankings isn't it odd the committee has Tulsa in the "play in game" rather than Gonzaga?
The play in game i believe is only for bubble teams. Gonzaga won their conference tourney.
Thanks. I get what you are saying. Just strange that the lowest ranked Conf Tourney winners (FGCU/FDU & Holy Cross/Southern) don't get that same protection.
That was the compromise when they went to 68 teams. The four play in games would be two games between the four worst conference winners and two games between the four worst at large teams.
Not IMHO. Any team not ranked in top 64 should only have their auto bid buy them a play-in game, Too many better teams are left out due to auto bids to conferences with winners often not even in the top 100 and a few not in the top 200.
Wouldn't have minded that at all. Payton is a hell of a player, but Tinkle is all banged up. Would've been a good matchup for Pitt.
I think Wisconsin is a better matchup for Pitt than Oregon State would've been.
Oregon state has the two things that Pitt struggles with.... Quick scoring guard (Payton) and a big rim protector (Eubanks).
And if Tinkle is healthy enough to play... that gives them two guys that we can't defend, with him and Payton.
