That stinks. Hopefully 21-11 will be good enough.

That stinks. Hopefully 21-11 will be good enough.

I've thought all along we've been in with the RPI as high as it has been. I don't see it a bit different today.

Jerry Palm made a comment yesterday that the win Ole Miss had yesterday should give them a little boost against the tournament bound Tide. He still has us as an 8 seed.

IF he's correct, I don't see much possibility of us making it past the 32. That is if we can get out of the first round against Memphis.

Of course, that's his bracket!

 

[psychojoe]

I think its reasonably important to win the USCe game. A loss wouldn't boot us out of the field, but it would draw the selection committee's attention in a bad way, making our draw worse.

 

[TerryP]

Curious. You guys been picking picking, or at least watching, who you think the sleepers are this year.

psycho knows the team I've been riding lately but without seeing the bracket i can't tell you how long I'll stay on. i've got two that i don't think most would/will pick as making into the sweet 16...

 

[RollTideRandy]

Drexel

Harvard

Florida St - beat NC and Duke

Virginia - lost all three games against NC and Duke by just 3 points

 

[TerryP]

Is Miss. State gone?

 

[psychojoe]

The last bracket I saw last night (Lunardi) had them in the last four in. That was before the latest L I think. Wimp said yesterday he thought they had already done enough regardless of how they did in the SEC tourney. Personally, I felt like they needed a deep run in the tournament and obviously didn't get it. I think they are NIT bound.

Terry, another nice win for your dark horse candidate last night. Did you have them?

 

[TheChief]

I think UNLV makes some noise.

 

[psychojoe]

To me one of the biggest surprises of the season has been the disappearance of the PAC 12 as a strong hoops league. I think Wichitta State makes some noise.

No. I listed mine in the Wow thread further down the page.

SEC I've got no one today.

Taking Kansas at -6.5, Mizzou at -5.5, and I'm taking Dayton to cover against Xavier (-2.5.)

Vandy is intriguing...and I almost pulled the trigger on UNLV. Still might on both.

 

[TerryP]

I've got two teams I think will make some waves in the dance; Cincy and Temple.

 

[TerryP]

I'm not touching the UK game today but the way people are betting catches my interest. The oddsmakers, as of this minute, have done their job. The consensus? There isn't one. It's a 50-50 split among those betting the line.

A lot are playing the over/under: it's at 137 to 138 depending on who you might play with. Most taking the under.

FWIW, UK is -8.

Heck, there isn't a game I'd touch today for that matter.

UNC -6
Xavier -3.5
tOSU -1.5
