BleacherReport - March Madness 2014 Snubs: Biggest Mistakes Made by Selection Committee...

Easily the best comment regarding snubs I've ever seen: "A few years ago I devised what I called the Drexel Threshold -- I'll only listen to a fanboy whining that his team didn't get into the field if their exclusion is even more egregious than when Drexel was snubbed despite a 20-plus game win streak, a conference championship, and a last-minute loss in their conference final to VCU, on VCU's home court no less. The committee cited a bad loss to Norfolk State early in the year; naturally, four days later NSU pulled a 15-over-2 upset.
Bottom line -- no snubbed team this year comes even close to the Drexel Threshold. So, I say bring on the big dance; this ought to be a good one."
These aren't snubs, but they're pretty funny...
