How many teams from the Big 12 do you think are going to be in the tourney, Buck?
|
CU is done!

And if anyone has a better idea on how I can organize the OP, I'll do it.

I dig the thread. Thanks Buck.

I'll chime in. Good thread. It's nice to see it all organized in one place I visit regularly.

Here is a cool site that keeps track of all the bracket projections on the internet.
I'll put it in the OP too. http://bracketproject.50webs.com/matrix.htm |
ESPN 2 Right now is Santa Clara vs St. Mary's
St. Mary's might be a Bubble Burster if they don't win the WCC tourney. Same goes for Gonzaga tonight, but I'm not 100% sure with either of these teams. |
Wow, your link has Missouri State in as a 13 seed. Would be very cool if that were to hold up, but I am not holding my breath. Missouri, K-State both as a 7 is a little surprising, I figured K-State would be at least a six or a five after beating both KU and Texas.

This is a great thread Buck.
I know everyone on this board is anxiously awaiting the announcement of whether KU will be the overall #1 seed or not. |

If you get your preferred region, then a #1 is a #1, there's not much difference on the S-curve. Kansas needs to avoid being the last #1 (no one wants to go West), and they need to stay ahead of Texas. If Kansas wins the Big 12 tourney, they are in good shape. If they lose in the championship game to anyone but Texas, they might still be OK. If Kansas fails to reach the championship game, they might go west or fall off the top line. |
Kentucky is going to be toast early, I don't think Mizzou will repeat there relative success from last year, and the bandwagon I hopped onto in Missouri State is NIT bound. I really don't have a pressing reason to give a shit about NCAA basketball this month. Yay.
|
No way MO state is NIT bound.

They will defintely get an NIT invitation. |
Hoping Florida gets in the Tampa regional..

Big 12 Bubble Teams:
Colorado - out Baylor - out Nebraska - out IMHO...One of these has to make a big show in the Big 12 Tournament to get selected. |

This selection Sunday is gonna be the best ever

Poor UMKC, another blowout loss in the 1st round of the Summit league tournament. Matt Brown should be fired tomorrow.
|
I think Missouri is a dreaded 8/9 seed. Gonna be some tough games for them. I would be shocked if the Bears got in. But damn they deserve a spot after all the horse shit that has happened with that program in regards to the tournament.

There aren't any bracket buster games today.
Gonzaga plays St Mary's for the WCC Championship, but regardless of who wins they are either both making it or only one of them. No huge blow to all other teams depending on who wins. |
Quote:
If VCU wins, that will take a spot away from the bubble. |
You think Old Dominion is going to get an at large bid?
I guess they could, but I don't see both George Mason and Old Dominion getting At Large bids. One or the other. |

|
ODU is a 8 on that bracket matrix you posted, BTW.

I forgot about the extra 4 spots this year.
If it was at 64 I think George Mason or ODU would be out because I can account for 63 other teams and I doubt they'd get the last spot, but these last 4 will probably help them. |

Great thread... Who is on tap tonight?:
I havent looked yet... |
Quote:
MAAC Championship St Peters VS Iona Southern Conference Wofford VS COCharleston WCC Champ St. Mary's VS Gonzaga |
Thanks... Will get the TV's on in a few...

Old dominion lost to Missouri by 23 points. Colorado beat Missouri at home and lost to Missouri by 16 on the road. I really don't think GMU's resume is very good either. They, like Colorado have some bad losses, (NC State, Dayton) but they don't have anywhere near as good a marquee win as CU does. If Colorado plays KSU one more time in the Big XII tourney and wins again they are for sure in. |
It would have been interesting had Missouri beaten KSU and Nebraska and gotten at least to the semis of the BXII tourney, and ended up as a 6 hosting and 11 seeded Missouri State.

ODU choking = starting to nail the coffin that is MSU's slim hopes for an at large bid. (If I'm not mistaken)
|
VCU/ODU what a great game
|
St. Peter's is choking.
|
ODU is going to pull this out. Colorado is saved for now.
|
St. Peter's is in.
|
Updated the OP, just got back home, how were the games?
|
OH SHIT I MIGHT HAVE GIVEN ODU THIS THING TOO SOON!
|
St. Marys 51 - Gonzaga 53
10:00 Left |
Wofford 59 - CofC 53
7:12 left |
Wofford up 5 with 3 min left

Looks like Wofford is gonna take it.
Posted via Mobile Device |
Looks like Gonzaga will win the WCC
|
Wofford is in and the Zags are pulling away.

I'm giving this game to Gonzaga and I'm going to say St Mary's will get an at large bid.
|
The 2 biggest games tomorrow are Butler vs Milwaukee for the Horizon title and Marquette vs Providence.
Butler could get an at large if they don't win and burst a bubble. Marquette should win but if they don't they might be on the outside looking in as the 11th Big East team. Marquette might need to even win 2 games in the Big East tourney, but 1 would probably do. |
That Butler game is going to be a good one. I like that squad. Tough as hell.
|
That South Florida / Villanova finish was great haha way to go S. Florida!
|
Good news for a lot of teams as both Baylor and Nebraska are pretty much out of the running.
|
UCF failed HARD against ECU.
|
Man, wasn't UCF like 12 or 13-0 to start the season?

TCU up by one at the half over the Jimmer Fredettes
|
It's looking like Florida is locked into the #3 seed in the Tampa region regardless of the SEC Tourney outcome.
|
WTF...TCU only down by 5 with 2 min left.

BYU is gonna just get out of there with a win.
|
LOL, I just noticed TCU was 1-15 in the MWC.
BYU just isn't a good team, anymore. |
I think CU is in now.
