One of the things that may be making the rankings look bad is that we're missing some crucial criteria numbers (most especially OOWP). Similar OWP's may mask very different SOS in the absence of OOWP.
What mystifies me is the volatility of the rankings so late in the season. In week 2, SNC was unranked. What could they possibly have done in one week to suddenly be #2?

They went 6-0 over the week from Wednesday April 29th to Saturday May 2nd and 15-11 to 21-11 and 13-10 in-region to 19-10 in-region.
(Man, I wish we had Patrick Abegg to work this stuff out.
)
Or a blog with all the OWP's and in-region records for all MW/C teams. If only ... 
I am not saying its not their fault. Yes, they lost their conference tournament. But that doesnt mean we cant demand consistency and efficiency in selection Pool C bids.
When someone voices a concern about selections, and you say "its their fault, they can't complain" it is as if you are saying consistency and good selections dont matter.
The issue is not whose fault it is. The issue is, are the right teams being selected by logical, good criteria.
That is ridiculous that Luther dropped bc they played a bad team. It's not like they lost. They won....4 times. This type of rationale would not survive at any other level. Why should we let it survive here. They should have just canceled the games....
