February 11Feb 11 Jumped on Illini and then lost when I started watching. Seem very long but defense is weak.

February 11Feb 11 Wisconsin Indiana UCLA USC and Ohio State all fighting it out on the bubble. First two teams look safe for now. Iowa has a good record and only one bad loss at Minnesota (see MSU recently), but also only one Quad 1 win. Current 7 seed. Ironic that Afford was brought in almost thirty years ago now because Tom Davis was always around that 7-9 seed line and got crushed in 2nd round games.
February 12Feb 12 Mizzou, with two of the worst losses I’ve ever seen as a fan (actually it was just re living the Kim Anderson era), is suddenly hot in this awful SEC and may sneak into the tourney if they keep it up.

March 15Mar 15 HTF does a 10 seed get a home game? 7 Miami has to play 10 Mizzou in St. Louis. Bullshit

Bullshit seems they were skeptical about Miami's season despite their inclusion due to a weak schedule big conference teams simply refused to play them...even at home guess it's not that far off from first two rounds at home for ncaaw all about selling more tickets/generating more excitement and enthusiasm
March 16Mar 16 Sorry misreading that as Miami of OH. Winner: St. Louis It’s hard to think of another first- and second-round host city that got a better draw. Ticket prices in St. Louis could be the highest of any first weekend site. Not only is St. Louis hosting Missouri for at least one game and is just a four-hour drive away from Indianapolis and all its Purdue fans, but both Iowa State and Kentucky are playing in the city. Iowa State fans routinely flood Kansas City for the Big 12 tournament and will assuredly be in St. Louis in large numbers. Kentucky fans also always travel well, and Lexington is just five hours away and Louisville is less than four. espn.com Illinois also got screwed having to rely on Duke fans in SC to cheer against UNC...but thankfully no Caleb Wilson.

March 19Mar 19 High Point looks for real so far.WI either struggles early or gets deep into the tourney it feels like.Nebraska/Sandforts with with first NCAA win and it hasn't been close throughout.Ohio State loses a back and forth game with TCU.Brock Harding sighting...and Coach Fran with Penn in the Big Dance as well. Too bad they won't likely play Iowa.
March 20Mar 20 BYU without Saunders and UNC without Wilson are bid shockers but not in reality.Already a lot more excitement than first round last year.Siena gave Duke all they could handle...going with only five players for the first time since 1979 DePaul vs. IndIana State. Just ran out of gas.UNC come back was from 19 down.Hubert Davis will feel the heat once again in Chapel Hill.10 Texas A&M burying #7 St Mary's Edited March 20Mar 20 by caulfield12
March 20Mar 20 Dybantsa's only flaws is outside shooting.Probably needs another 10-15 pounds of muscle.

March 22Mar 22 ISU without Jefferson tmrw.That's going to make things very tough.The craziest play of day was almost miraculous Clemson vs. USC women's finish, that quickly flipped on replay and transformed into a USC OT win.Gonzaga losing in early rounds hardly qualifies as an upset...anymore.
March 22Mar 22 Arkansas High Point like a track meet.Favorite Cinderella team....and one of the few remaining already.Nebraska basically playing a home game in OKC, Vandy hanging tight.Sandfort has had a heckuva season. Edited March 22Mar 22 by caulfield12
