Oakland Tournament Resume

Oakland (12-18, 7-9, T-5th Mid-continent)
Seed: #16 Syracuse Play-in
How they got here: A Technicality (Won Mid-Continent Conference tourney)
Against the Field (0-2):
L @Illinois 54-85
L @Michigan St. 75-92

The good: Got in the NCAA tourney. Marshall and Scott their star guard and forward.

The bad: They don't deserve to be in. Sure they won their conference tourney. I've heard the arguments that they played a tough non-conference schedule and that is why they have a losing record. True, they played a tough non-conference schedule, but they also didn't have a winning record in conference. Very disappointing. Other than Marshall and Scott they have no weapons.
