No, it's worse than that - they said they didn't use their own top-10 rankings, which had Minnie #7 a week before winning the Big X tourney.And then, how stupid is it to say in effect, ''We don't use the top-25 polls, except to see how many top-25 teams you've beaten.''
If Florida makes it to Oklahoma, I would imagine that the complaints about Barnhill's pitching style will increase sharply. I think that the NCAA softball committee is going to be weathering more controversy before the dust settles. First, the Minnesota inconsistency - next illegal pitches.
NCAA only cares about the big $ MN Stadium would not hold enough people to meet the NCAA executives budgets.
Cool, although seems dangerous to me... jkCal softball lost a super regional because of that one year. They put in additional seats and lightning the following year.

The Minnesota issue is settled. Committee got it right.
