First, Little Rock almost took out LSU.

Second, then you take out the "importance" of conference tournaments. It's no different than in College Basketball and you have a lot of 1 bid leagues there too

It can happen, but they were 10ish games under .500. They won the tourney. They get to go. But, Eastern Illinois, TnTech, ACU, Sacramento State and others still deserved at large bids ahead of the bottom feeder SEC schools that were a mere embarassing door mat in the regionals. 13 got in. 9 got booted. Some of those slots should have gone to some other at large well deserving teams.

ACC advanced 5 of 6 teams, with the lone boot being a very respectable WF losing to UT.

I'm completey OK if the NCAA changed things up and rule that no more than 50% of a conference can be represented in post season.
