That's about it ... I guess they're not getting dissed THAT hard, there's just no one out there making the argument that if they win out (and win the A-10 tourney) they should be a No. 1 seed or anything.

Still no love for Xavier
I don't get it. 24-4, 12-1 in the A-10. Ten straight wins. Beat up on Indiana and K-State and took Tennessee down to the wire. Here are some disses ...
On his blog, SI.com's Luke Winn doesn't include Xavier among his legit title contenders. He lists seven teams in that group and points out there's a dropoff from those seven to rulers of the Big East and Big Ten. No mention of Xavier.
FoxSports' Jeff Goodman points out that Tennessee's win at Xavier was among their most impressive on the road, but then he doesn't mention the Muskies as a team that could win the title. Although their bracket guy has X as a 2 seed, which is good.
Joe Lunardi has X and Stanford battling for a 2 seed, even though Xavier's strength of schedule ranking is 24 and Stanford's is 120. (Warning: Subscription content)
