Nobody steals a bid. i hate that term. There are probably 7-8 mid-majors that get berths ahead of us if they don't win their tournament, though. Expand to 80, and we probably still don't get an at-large. We're not even in the conversation, even at 31-4. Must win the last 3.

Bids are definitely stolen, earned if you prefer. Teams from any conference who have horrible records steal bids every year. Who's saying a cat burglar isn't working hard? The cat burglar is still stealing.

12-seeds that are in playoffs are only at-large teams. We won't play-in if we win tourney.

Also it’s games for teams seeded 11 and 16. Two games feature 11 seeds and other two feature 16 seeds.

I think it's one 11 game one 12 game and two 16 games

Two of the games are based on the last four at-large teams. They could be 11 seeds, they could be 12 seeds.

Since the First Four began, they have never been 10 or above or 13 and below

2014 was the last time it wasn’t 11 and 16 seeds.

Bids aren't stolen from people who owned said bids. Should we run the table in lose in NOLA, no one stole our bid. We didn't have a bid until we win the championship or our name comes up on Sunday. Only one team owns a bid from the Sun Belt: the tournament champion. If that's not us, we didn't get it stolen from us. We never owned the bid. Same with leagues that see 6-20 teams winning tournaments.

They are talking about other conferences, example west coast conference, if anyone else besides st Mary's or gonzaga win the tourney it's a stolen bid, lessening the already very small chance the Cajuns have of getting an at large

#53! One shot, one half, one game at a time, baby!

Stop with the at large talk...not happening.

The more "stolen" bids, the better for our seeding...provided the tournament champion ha a worse RPI than we do.

I'm rooting for any regular season champion anywhere near our RPI to lose in their tournament.
