Miami (Ohio) went 31-0 in the regular season, then lost in the Mid-American Conference Tournament. The RedHawks are at the mercy of the selection committee now after they fell in the quarterfinals to a UMass team that was outside the top 200 in the NET rankings. Miami’s weak schedule and lack of major wins are problems, but going 31-1 against even the RedHawks’ schedule is not easy. For now, the RedHawks’ loss should probably concern other bubble teams more than it worries Miami. Including Auburn, which blew a double-digit lead against Tennessee in the SEC Tournament on Thursday.
