Pitt vs. Nova or Pitt vs WVU in Brooklyn

Gosh would I love to play Nova-they're a better matchup for us. WVU has a couple of physical guys inside who could give Pitt fits.
 
Assuming we advance that far. That will be too good for the committee to pass up.

I've always thought that the committee was going to put an A-10 and an ACC with Nova as the 1 in Brooklyn. They put NC St with Nova here in Pittsburgh.

Maybe St Joes vs Pitt, you either get a Big 5 game in Rd 2, or a Big East rematch?

I have WVU as a 3, so I don't know if we would get a 6/11 seed to play them, maybe if we win in Dayton? I'm also not convinced WVU is heading to Brooklyn, I could see them sending Miami there if Miami wins the ACCT.

If WVU wins tonight and Miami loses, I think WVU gets Brooklyn. They may get it regardless. And I really believe the committee does put together enticing 2nd Round possible options. Pitt/WVU or Pitt/Nova would be big-time. WVU could get a 2. So, we could see them as a 10.
 
This tournament is all about making $ for CBS and their sponsors. They absolutely set up matchups based on the potential of ratings and interest when possible.

Yea, so much so that I think it hurts the integrity of the selection process.
