Anyone watchin Gameday right now? They're doing a pretty cool thing with Bilas, Hubert, and Digger

You draft 5 teams, one has to be outside of the top 25, one has to be outside a power 6 conference, and the other 3 can be anybody.

Hubert has:
Kentucky
Wichita State
Long Beach State
Baylor
Alabama

Bilas has:
Cuse
NC
MSU
Mizzou
New Mexico

Digger has:
Duke
Kansas
Vanderbilt
Long Beach State
Ohio State

Connecticut has blown a 16 point lead at home, only up a couple on Pittsburgh.

South Florida and West Virginia battling. Bigger game for WVU.

Memphis is going to win C-USA outright with a route of Tulsa, who is decent in their own right. Tigers in good shape heading into the NCAA's. After losing 5 of their first 11, they have won 17 of 19. Could be a team who will lurk in round 2. I can see the committee putting Memphis as an 8 seed in UK's bracket.

St. Louis beats Duquesne. They're a definite lock now. WVU is a lock too at this point.

South Florida back on the outside looking in in my opinion.

If Duke loses to Carolina and then fails to capture the ACC Tournament, Blue Devil fans might as well log-on to hotwire dot com before the selection show and start looking for rooms in Atlanta.

That game sucks too

Luckily I get Marquette/Gtown and very comfortable on my 1st half O/U bet :D

Are big black teddy bears something you tend to derive enjoyment from? Lol.

I know exactly what you mean, though. For whatever odd reason, I used to get really riled up when watching Ron Rollerson at Temple.

^LOL I can't look at that picture and not laugh.

Something about seeing a huge, gigantic fuck running full speed down the court just makes me smile.

Lol I know, I lost it when I found that picture.

On a related note, those Owl teams with Rollerson, Mark Karcher, Ronald Blackshear, Pepe Sanchez and Lynn Greer were really good teams. John Chaney was SUCH an underrated coach.

Xavier down 7 at home to Charlotte. A loss here would bury them. Would have to win the A-10 Tourney for sure.

Kansas State, Xavier and Cincinnati with wins.

Southern Mississippi and Washington in close ones late, Northwestern up 7 at Iowa midway through the 2nd.

Miami blowing out BC.

Washington falls to UCLA. Southern Miss loses to Marshall.

Both going to be interesting cases. I can't see a Pac-12 champ not getting a bid, and I'm pretty sure Washington wrapped up at least a share.

Northwestern leads Iowa, 66 to 64, with 21.5 left. This is as must-win as it gets for the Wildcats.

Louisville was getting dominated by Cuse and now has it down to 10 with just under 3 minutes.

No Big East team has ever finished the regular season with less than 2 losses. Until now. Even though the conference is somewhat down...that's pretty impressive.
