If I were a Miami fan, I'd be happy with this draw over what the 1 in the West is, easiest road to the regional final out of any of the 1-2's imo.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 05:23 PM) I'm with you. I don't see that happening but that'd be cool. Memphis will lose to either MTSU or the Gaels.

I was hoping for the Burke-Wolters matchup. Jackrabbits can definitely win that game. Then VCU vs either Burke or Wolters will be a blast.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 05:38 PM) ND vs ISU should be fun. All offense, no defense game. Should be a lot of fun.

I wonder if that Ole Miss win oddly enough got them and MTSU in. I'm thinking MTSU and Lasalle are going to be your last two in. Tennessee out, Virginia out.

This thing is seriously making it's way around my fb feed now, a lot of people sharing the article. Lol.

Steve's story has now reached random people on my fb feed. The trolling for hits thing has worked to perfection.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:09 AM) Not quite, Thursday tops today. Well duh but today is still one of my favorite days of the yr. Week long Christmas. Or Hanukkah. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:13 AM) BTW, does Louisville have the midwest regional now instead of IU? I would think so.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 09:44 AM) Akron! My dad grew up in Akron and him and seems like most of his family went to college there so it was nice to see them overcome their PG being a moron. I have no clue what to think of them now. Loved them before Abreu got suspended then they looked awful for a few games and then they look great last night. Hopefully they play a tough 4 or 5 so I don't have to think about them too much ha.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Southern Miss sucks, in no way do I want them in the tourney.

Derrick needs to drink some sizzurp and get in the game.

I don't approve of everyone drinking at 9 am while I'm stuck at work. Not cool everyone else in Chicago, not cool.

Steve explain yourself...

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 16, 2013 -> 07:20 AM) I just went from six to midnight. They're just toying with our emotions.

Why am I arguing against the mid major right now? What's going on?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 08:46 PM) The bubble is so bad that Middle Tennessee should be in. 28-5 is good enough compared to what these other teams bring to the table. I'm of the opinion that you have to beat at least 1 tourney team no matter what your record is. Like I said, I'm definitely rooting for them though.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 08:26 PM) And that is how upsets happen. Favored team cant hit 3s and underdog cant miss. Maryland keeping their slim hopes alive. If you're Maryland you root for UNC tonight, right?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 02:45 PM) So, is Iowa State locked in now? Have to be I'd think. Oklahoma is probably in too, but not as sure there. Baylor is out. Correct on all 3.

Bill Self got a tad angry.

Tenn, Lasalle and Virginia crippled themselves today though I'm sure at least one will be in. Might open the door for MTSU to slip in, I think they're better than all teams mentioned(except maybe Virginia) but I don't think they should be in the field. That being said, I'm definitely rooting for them to get in.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 14, 2013 -> 02:28 PM) Then why have 65 teams in the tournament? Why not make it 16? Let's really make it interesting, and screw these conference tournaments. By your knowledge of how many teams are actually in the tournament I assume you're a huge college basketball fan.

I say this every time someone brings up expanding the tourney but ill say it again...it's the most perfect thing in sports leave it the f*** alone.

KC Johnson's article basically just confirms that it's 100 percent mental with Derrick right now.

It'll be interesting to see if the Creighton win can get St Mary's into the dance cause their resume pretty much sucks outside that one home win.
