NCAA March Madness / Selection Sunday

[bkess8]

It's that time again gentlemen. Who's in, who's out, and who wins this year?

Bubble Watch
Temple
St Bonaventure
Pittsburgh
Syracuse
Michigan
San Diego State
Oregon State
South Carolina
Vanderbilt
Saint Mary's
Valparaiso
Arkansas-Little Rock
Monmouth

I will get the games up as soon as possible in the sportsbook and also post a tourney bracket when available.

 

[Luckylucci]

Not an Oregon fan but they should get the #1 seed over UVA, IMO. Or MSU should they lose today. Pac12 country specifically PNW, will go pretty nuts should they not got that #1 seed.

 

[Irish Insanity]

I still don't get how MSU at #2 overall, completely dominant as of late, is not a lock at #1

I hate to say it but I think Michigan probably gets in now after being dead in the water a week ago.

They are a lock for a #1 seed along with Kansas. I would guess that the other two are N.C. and either Oregon or Virginia.

So you're saying that regardless of the outcome today, MSU should be the #2 overall seed?

 

[BobbyMac]

The Mighty Valpo Crusaders are #31 in the Coaches poll and #33 in the AP and will play on the road at Northwestern in the NIT.

26-6, best record in Indiana once again but no soup for us.

At 161 in SOS, I don't wan to hear about having the best record in Indiana. That's white noise to me.

Just pointing out some facts. Wasn't complaining. We belong in the NIT.

Sorry if you don't agree with the #31 rating compiled by the college coaches.

No, I am saying that MSU is a #1 seed no matter what happens today. I think Kansas is the #1 overall seed, and MSU and NC are 2 and 3 based off of what happens today (MSU is 2 if they win and 3 if they lose) and I don't really have any clue if Oregon or Virginia will be the final 1 seed.

Yeah but your facts are flawed. It's not like they went 26-6 in the Big Ten, Big East or ACC. That was kinda my point, I know some things are out of their control like in conference strength.

On another note I hope every year that we can get all the teams from Indiana in the tourney. Best state for basketball and it should show come tourney time.

Okay, so the way I would've said the previous statement then was that Kansas, UNC, and MSU are all locks for #1 seeds, considering currently UNC is above MSU.

If MSU were to lose by 10+, don't think it happens, but if it did, then I could see a very good argument for Oregon ahead of MSU at #3 overall.

I was talking more about having the best record at 26 and 6. Yes they do have the best record but it is misleading when you look at SOS. Wasn't arguing the ranking that is clear.

 

[bkess8]

Well MSU just guaranteed their #1 seed IMO by winning the BIG 10 tourney.

 

[bkess8]

Well here we go...

 

[bkess8]

Can't believe that Virgina is a 1 seed over Michigan State.

 

[Luckylucci]

Really surprised that MSU is the school that gets hosed here. UVA had to beat UNC yesterday to get that #1 seed. Obviously the committee thinks highly of the ACC and Pac12, imagine that shows up later on.

 

[bkess8]

Any surprises in the south to you guys?

 

[Sherm Sticky]

I'm shocked MSU didn't get a 1. They are my final 4 team thiugj

So funny to me that games in the WEST region are being played in Providence, Rhode Island.

 

[BobbyMac]

19-11 Ore St in? Lost to 26-6 Valpo at home. Me has a sad.

Duke is shitting a brick having to play UNCW.

Northern Iowa will beat Texas. If only Green Bay could beat A&M So we could have a good old fashioned 80's Horizon League battle when Greg McDermott was playing Tony Bennett.

Kinda puzzled by this also. I think the committee is over valuing the PAC 12.

 

[bkess8]

Also going to be pissed when they put all Indiana teams in one part of the damn bracket.

 

[fightingirish26]

Supposedly we are playing winner of skunkbears-tulsa. we're a 6 seed

 

[BobbyMac]

Not winning 20 should be an automatic disqualifier unless you're an automatic qualifier

 

[bkess8]

Indiana gets a 5 seed.

 

[arrowryan]

We get the winner of UM/Tulsa
