The A10 is 6-0! La Salle beat Boise State and Kansas State, VCU beat Akron, Temple beat NC State, Butler beat Bucknell, and St. Louis beat New Mexico State. The A10 is definitely stepping up and producing results. VCU and Michigan will be a fun match up
The A10 is definitely doing well, but how can anyone even keep track of who's in that conference without a scorecard? Two of their top 3 teams are in their first year in the conference.
As I read that chart I said this exact same thing aloud.
Pathetic.
For the conference to get its Performance Above Seed Expectation back to 0, all three of the remaining teams must reach the Final Four.
lol... I might get flamed but the Big East is the basketball version of B10 football this year I guess. :-/
I've been mining numbers from Massey's site, and after today's updates, these will likely change a bit, but right now, the Big Ten still has about a 23% chance (estimated) of having the champion come from those ranks. The Big East - largely driven by Louisville's numbers - would be around 31%, and the ACC is somewhat more remote in its chances at a little under 7%. The Atlantic 10, a member of which we play in a few short hours, would sit in the 5% neighborhood.
It was great watching the B1G teams, save Wisconsin, get away from beating each other up and flex their muscle against the rest of the counrty. I especially enjoyed watching Minny beat UCLA at their own game. They were up and down the court the whole night and Dre Hollins really put on a show. Definitley worth staying up for.
Chart says they only have 5 teams in the Big Dance.
I think they picked up a win in a play-in game.

Looks like only OSU benefits (slightly) from the upsets. There are some tough matchups today and tomorrow.

OSU already had the easiest bracket to deal with as Gonzaga was not deserving of a 1-seed nor was New Mexico deserving of a 3-seed. Now with the multitude of upsets in the bracket (LaSalle, Mississippi and Harvard), you can practically take it to the bank that OSU will be in the Final Four.
Help me, Arizona, you're my only hope...from seeing OSU in the Final Four.
Iowa State had the best offense on a per possesion basis in the Big 12. That game could get away from Ohio State in a hurry.

B1G ten looking good! lets end the A-10's undefeated record.

The one team to keep us from listening to ESS EEE SEE B.S. and they can't carry their load.
On the plus side, I think Minnie and Illinois can both pull off round 2 surprises. Let's go B1G!
Anyone updated this for the second round?
