SOR is actually on the team sheets.


Oh and add Xavier to the list of likely popped bubbles today.

I know it is. But find me a committee member that talks about it. They like stats that favor the big conferences.

That's fair. At least it's on there. That and KPI (the 2 results oriented metrics) put WSU solidly in.

Lunardi updating that WSU would be in and bump Xavier out as an at large at this point.

Sorry. I'll be trusting Coach P over some bracketology expert.

as you should....

also i'm sure the comfort of being the very last team in, according to lundardi ...will protect you from a non final tourney loss...

that lunardi tweet definitely changed the context of the conversation in any way shape or form *sarcasm* ( i have to add that now, people cant tell)

ecu cincy also playing today

is the thread lagging for everyone?

It got stuck on "loading" for several minutes when I posted the item about Alex Lomax.

Lot of chatter

I would certainly be fine with this scenario

Getting a bit of a fools gold feeling from this Memphis start. Think we are in trouble once Houston adjusts to pace - they are getting A LOT of open looks

this thread is lagging, we are using the final day thread as the game thread

5 mins without a Memphis UH post?

memphis came to play today, low scoring so far

Memphis looks like a tournament team to me....Looks like the best team we played this year. Better than Texas Tech or the Shockers.

Whoa!

Caleb Who?

i love it , last second shot from mid court to beat memphis, how sweeeeeet it is...
