Illinois against UNLV, 8-9. Seems...a little high for the Illini. The committee is really loving the Big Ten.
Sparty is sweating
Jesus CAA with 3 bids. Hofstra the odd team out in that Top 4. My alma mater is NIT bound. Shocked VCU got in.
Not going to happen, but it would be so awesome if sparty was left out
I know better than think this possible, but there are like two bubble spots left. If FYS didn't get one this day would be so much better.
Please let Sparty be left out, please!!!!!!!!!
But are they saying SDS is the "5th #1 seed", up against #4 1 seed Duke? I have a hard time buying that. It's again looking like Duke is getting the easy draw (even though by seeding they should have the toughest of the 1's).
Wisconsin still hasnt been called, most likely they are a 4 or 5, so state has to be in the lower half of the bracket
We will probably be playing the late game Friday because Duke might get the primetime spot.
They finished behind UW-Milwaukee in the regular season Horizon League!
Wisconsin - Belmont
This is funny
Sparty has to be a 10.
Could be a tough game for bucky!
Sparty made it.
fuck
Florida a two seed??!?
PSU and MSU should have been lower?
That is the weakest bracket ever...
Florida instead of Duke, then a BYU 3 seed.
Yep, the committee has done its part to get sparty to another sweet sixteen
state got an easy draw... overrated ucla and then an overrated florida with byu/stjohn's waiting in the wings
am i blind or did illinois get left out?
in the Southwest vs UNLV
Once we know the date and time of the TN game. I'll probably have to work that day! Plane tickets will be expensive as well!

play a good tennessee team and then hopefully play Duke in a hostile environment
I'd be shocked if we kept it close during the game against Duke that the crowd wouldn't be on our side.
I remember being in KC against Oklahoma, the place was filled about 80% Oklahoma fans
It's a Duke home game.
Lunardi missed three teams out of his four real bubble picks.
Farce I say, farce.
nobody saw VCU and UAB getting in. Virginia Tech and Colorado got screwed over in particular to not get in over those two teams. Hell even Harvard is more deserving than those two teams.
Tournament committee did a pretty poor job this year.
State has a VERY favorable potential path to their Region's final. UCLA, then potentially Florida, then BYU/St. Johns. They got this based upon their prestige as a tournament team for sure.
Doesn't matter. This MSU team isn't consistent enough to make a run. They'll probably go down in round one.
The nice thing about living in A2 - you can decide to go to U-M events at the last minute. I made it to Crisler just in time. It was fun. Brandon, Beilein and the captains (Douglass and Novak) gave little speeches after the team was selected. BTW, the renovations have already begun - many of the upper-deck sections are seatless right now. Also, the stadium scoreboards are only half-existent right now.
