I dont know how people hate Bill Walton. The guy cracks me up.

I could listen to the Boris Diaw rant about Beethoven all day long. Mike Tirico just losses it.

Some good ones today:

Virginia/UNC 7pm ESPN

Oklahoma/Iowa State 9pm ESPN2

Duke/Notre Dame 9pm ESPN

Utah/Oregon 1130pm ESPN

Wisconsin, SMU, Kentucky, and Davidson all tipping off early afternoon to warm us up as well. Fun day for college hoops

I can see UK losing this weekend. Not today, Florida is terrible. But I don't see them dominating this tournament. I just don't. If it happens, likely LSU tomorrow. Then again, the way SEC teams choke, LSU will probably lose to Auburn.

A few predictions for today.

Iowa State/Oklahoma, game of the day.
Colorado State/San Diego State, runner-up.
Either South Carolina or Auburn will beat Georgia or Arkansas.
Ohio State over MSU.
Richmond over VCU, who misses the NCAA's, completing one of the all-time recent collapses (VCU was ranked in the top 10).
North Carolina over Virginia.
Duke rolls Notre Dame.

VCU has literally a 0% chance of missing the tournament.

I don't think they are a lock. 4 good wins.

What's the difference between them and Texas, who everyone has right on the fringe?

Assuming a 3rd loss to Richmond.

A #1 noncon SOS, a top 25 RPI, a 4-5 top 50 record vs 3-12, an 11-8 top 100 record vs 8-13, and an 11-5 road/neutral record vs 7-8?

I dont think Texas gets left out either, unless at least 2 bids get stolen this weekend.

Dawson has been cleared to play for MSU.

I'm with Mulva no way VCU misses the tournament now Texas I'm not so sure on. Its close they probably will make it but I don't think they are an absolute lock like VCU.

Jordan Mickey should've been ejected in Nashville. Shoved a ref about 3 feet during a scuffle. He got hit with a haymaker by an Auburn player and reacted. The Auburn player was ejected.

Auburn 73, LSU 70 in OT.

Much needed scrimmage tomorrow for UK.

NC Central goes down in the MEAC. Joins Murray State in choking away a bid after going unbeaten in conference play. 17-15 UAB up 12 on Louisiana Tech, with 19-15 Middle Tennessee State waiting for the winner.

Love conference tournaments, hate how much weaker they tend to make the field.

I lol'd hard. At first I thought maybe he had an episode of vertigo again. Then I saw the look on his face.

Providence has tied Nova with 12 seconds left. I need 2 TVs right now.

Brogdon finally misses.

I expect them to still be a #1.
