I interpret it as a either/or a total lack of respect for the Ducks (who also got stiffed last year) and the fact a UW guy is head of the NCAA.
Haha, you Ducks are too funny. You really think Emmert had anything to do with the Duck's 12 seed? You were screwed, but it had nothing to do with a UW guy being the head of the NCAA. By that logic, wouldn't have we had made the tournament last year when we won the Pac-12 regular season? Or is he just more willing to screw UO than he is to help out UW? More likely it is the continued lack of knowledge/interest of the west coast outside of Arizona, UCLA and Gonzaga. I'm sure the committee just saw how you struggled towards the end of the season without bothering to check and see why (injuries, which have since healed, resulting in your Pac-12 tourney performance).
No, nobody thinks that. It's just funny to say, because some UDub fan would show up and be hurt about Oregon's jabbing at Emmert and his incompetent NCAA.
If indeed it was a true upset. I had no doubt they'd win. Now I expect them to lose to Louisville, who I have as national champs.
