I'm hardly a Stanford fan (in fact, quite the opposite), but they had no bad losses and some decent wins. I don't know if they were better than those left out, but they were not exactly a surprise tournament pick, in my view. The committee will take some justified heat, but this isn't one place.
I agree...put Stanford up against a different team in the field and this probably doesn't happen...Louisville is strong at guard where Stanford is not - they rely on the big guys...L'ville pressured the guards and kept them from getting the ball inside - it's more of a kudos to Pitino and his team than a slam on Stanford.
