Nearly a melee in South Carolina Vs LSU women’s game. Some got onto the court and crowd tried a bit but good job by security being quick.

LSU chick elbowed a girl in the neck and USC girl trucked her lol. Last 2 min of game USC had 6 players left and LSU 5

Cardoso from SC kind of scares me.

Pitt is a tournament team, but they won’t be in the tournament. There’s only 1 hope. I’ll let you know what it is if they are selected.

Iowa St has won 5 of the last 10 Big 12 tournaments????

I would’ve lost every penny I have on that one.

Scary sight in SEC Championship 

Florida 7’1 center a gruesome ankle injury had to be taken off on a stretcher and both teams in prayer circles. Mom and Dad to the court.

ESPN never showed it but I’m sure videos will be out soon. I will not be watching.

I have nothing in it outside of I know Akron’s assistant Dustin Ford. He was head coach here in town when he got started and our kids were at same baby sitter.

My track schedule will keep me from going anywhere it looks

So the committee can’t really say they consider NET rankings much

New Mexico NET #22

Duquesne NET #86

Both #11 seeds


BYU gets Duquesne and Clemson gets New Mexico

Wondering if any ACC dudes are on the committee lol

Dayton hasn’t beaten a single team in the field and they are a #7 seed

That doesn’t even sound possible

Big props to anyone who finds the bracket with tip times, spread, and Ken Pom ratings. Usually someone does one each year that is floating around but I haven't seen it yet

Big East folks seem upset. Guess they were ranked the #2 conference behind the Big 12 and all of their bubble teams got snubbed.

While watching conference tournaments, I figured there would be a lot of people winding up upset with how things turned out due to how it seemed there were a TON of teams with 18-21 wins who all had their ups and downs where they all had some merits, but also had red flags. Like, in just the Big 10, you had Northwestern (haven't been the same since Ty Berry got hurt), Wisconsin (good recovery in conference tournament, but had a long "they suck" stretch late in the regular season), Michigan State (played a brutal schedule and lost most of those tough games -- meaning they are totally that team pundits will be all like "It's Izzo, it's March, no one wants to play them" and then they'll lose 78-69 in a game where they were down by 10 for 35 of the 40 minutes), Indiana (somehow won 19 games despite seemingly having no impact on anything that happened in the sport all year), Ohio State (good finish under Diebler, but those last two months of Holtmann were a killer that gave them no margin for error), Iowa (finished with two losses in back-to-back must wins) and Minnesota (surprisingly in some sort of "barely in it" contention until faltering down the stretch) all in this sort of gray area where you knew which of them were likely in and which ones needed some/lots of help, but none of them felt overly inspiring.

And with there being a lot of teams like that in most conferences, I'm totally looking forward to seeing just how quickly my bracket gets busted to hell! At least let me have fun with it for Thursday, guys! I'll even take a year like one of my friends had a decade or so ago where he was 16-of-16 the first day and then lost his champion in the noon game on Friday because he at least had one awesome day before it all went to shit.

See how Akron got in? Poor dude on Kent State didn't realize his team just took the lead and quickly fouled an Akron player with about 6 seconds left. He made both shots and Akron won by 1.
