Choosing A Champion

[Panthur]

You know, this could still happen even without fans or players.

Why don’t we just have the refs get together and pick a winner?


Isn’t that what they were gonna do anyway?

 

[HerrosHeroes]

No matter what UK had the most impressive finish to the season with the 18 pt come back in Florida with less than 12 min. to beat the Gators.

There has to be a national champion. Since there is no tournament, a champion must be by vote. Only fair thing to do.

Why does there have to be one? Couldn’t we just skip it and have a gap? Champion by vote just makes it a popularity contest and I hate the idea of giving any team a title that way.

Florida State already called it ...

 

[gwjenning]

There’s no National Champion from 2013.
Besides most would vote Kansas. Why give it to them and strip it later?

 

[gwjenning]

I would rather have a champion determine by a playoff but that is not happening and no champion is not an option. The only option we have is vote on a champion. Besides, there is no rule against it.

There doesn’t have to be a champion. There’s not going to be one in boys and girls high school basketball or men’s and women’s college bb along with many other sports by the time this is over.
2020 will likely be a year many of us will want to forget for more important reasons than sports sadly!

People are dieing and businesses will be closing but you want a college basketball champion? Really!

 

[Panthur]

Yeah now that you mention it we should probably have a bread company vote, that sounds the most legit.

This is silly.

I would be willing to bet that if duke was in ku's spot they would have already voted them the champions!

If you don't earn it I wouldn't want UK to be Champion by vote...JMO

No. Clear your minds. No Staypuft marshmallow man, no champ.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

And the fake winner can go to a closed disney world.

 

[blubo]

Just take it on yourself and go ahead and declare a champion.
That’s how i won Old_Red’s prediction contest.

 

[420grover]

There's a total of 1 person, besides Kansas fans, that think voting a champion is the right thing to do.

Until 1939 the basketball champ was decided by the polls. Football was until just recently. Since the whole season was pretty much completed there is a good body of evidence to choose a champion. Kansas is currently ranked #1 in several polls.. Kansas should be the 2020 Champs

No it should be Ky.
Because kU would have to vacate the title.
NOA,NOA,NOA !!!

You know, if there's one occupation I don't feel bad for not having a job right now.. it's college basketball officials.

Speaking of which.. might be time to pay a visit to Higgin's Roofing business on facebook.

Thanks. Thread got sidetracked, but this was my point.

 

[jcmc225]

This is the most sensible take. I agree.

Considering the best team rarely wins though does it really make sense? Tournament truly is the only way. Should just be left blank in the history books. Or put KU name but asterisk that they *finished number 1 in regular season*. But to call them a National Champion is just baseless

 

[Wildcats1st]

You can’t throw bylaws out the window and make it up as you go along. Sorry Kansas. Btw Gonzaga is number 1 in the ncaa created metric if they chose anyone it would be gonzaga but by laws prevent this crap from happening.

 

[JASUN74]

Yes. determening a champion will not make matters worse. It will give us a talking point as we sit ildly waiting things out. Plus the best teams rarely win tournaments. A vote would decide a more legit champion.

. Sorry my friend, but it just isn’t happening this year! Also, anytime we have voting, we stand a chance of someone cheating or favoritism by a group against another! We all know it Kentucky Fans against the world!! Literally!!!! We’re all sad about the outcome and would love to be watching March Madness, it just wasn’t possible with all that’s happened. (By the way, There wasn’t a Champion in 2013 either, hehe,)!! This year will always be the what if year for everyone in the country who had a pretty good team, but If one team can claim it, every team in the top fifty could do the same an we just can’t have Fifty Champions.

Things we’ll get better my brother, and God Willing, in a few months we can think of these days as a bad dream and start to move on with life. I understand what you’re trying to say but there just isn’t anyway to crown a Champion and be fair about it without playing the games. I will say that next year is sure looking like a final four team who can win the tournament!! Number nine will just have to wait until next year. Lol. Go Cats!

 

[jcmc225]

Fans from every team meet in Applebees parking lot. Last man standings team is crowned champion.

Is spelling really that hard? It is KU not UK. That is what distinguishes the Universities.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Why is it necessary to determine a champion?

The tournament didn't happen. No one should be champion.

This isn't the 1920s

Put the 64 in a hat,draw out 32,repeat the process till you get to one.Televise the draw,show clips of each team drawn,Vegas can take bets on the winner. Problem solved.
