Not to shabby for a team picked to finished last in the Horizon preseason poll.

Kansas gets thumped by Baylor. Air Force hits 2 threes in the final 16 seconds and beats New Mexico by 1. No 1 seed for the Lobos.

The argument that things aren't down at the top this season gets funnier and funnier every week.

And didn't have 1 game within single digits.

2 more conference leaders are getting beaten down - Louisiana Tech started 14-0 in the WAC, now going to end with 2 straight losses. Down 21 to Denver. Long Beach State going to finish losing 3 of 4, they're down 19 to Pacific.

UNLV loses at home to Fresno State. Awful.

Murray State up 6 on Belmont with under 2 to go. For my money the Bruins are a tourney team regardless of the result here.

Canaan dribbles off of his foot for an over and back. Belmont with the go-ahead J with 0.7 left. Wow.

Duke is the number one overall seed in the NCAA Tournament at this point. Gonzaga can lock up a one seed with one more victory -- although they could also drop to a two seed with a loss to (potentially) Saint Mary's in the WCC final -- and Indiana can punch its ticket on the top line with a win over Michigan tomorrow afternoon.

It's down to Georgetown and Kansas for the final one slot, with Louisville on the outside looking in unless the Cardinals win the Big East Tournament.

Louisville should be a 1. Best team in the country at this point in my opinion. 9-4 against the top 50, only non-top 50 loss was Villanova (#51). 9-1 in their last 10.

Here's how I view the one seeds after remembering that Kansas got blasted today: Duke is in. Gonzaga and Indiana are in with wins in their next games. And I think Georgetown or Louisville -- whichever advances furthest in the Big East Tournament -- will get one. If Gonzaga loses in the WCC final or Indiana loses at Michigan, I think Kansas or Kansas State could slip in. Or possibly Michigan or Michigan State if either wins the Big Ten Tournament in impressive fashion.

And I think that, when taking Duke's resume when fully healthy into account, the Blue Devils have played the most impressive basketball this year. Tonight's dominating performance at North Carolina proves to me that Duke can win the NCAA Tournament. The Blue Devils are 18-0 with Ryan Kelly. Duke has a lot of weapons -- five guys averaging 11 per game or more -- and with Kelly, they have the best offensive spacing in the country.

Think they'll be a 1 but I dont think they'll advance past sweet16. I just don't see it when I watch them. Siva either is on or way off and turns it over a lot.

Gosh I want Louisville in Ohio States region. I think Siva is so overrated, just does not impress me. Maybe I don't watch them enough, but I can't stand him.

I don't understand what you could see watching any other team either.
