2020-21 Games of Interest

[Shocker Mama]

But just remember... this is about education and student athletes. It's totally not about money.

Education. Wholesome, students first, athletes 2nd. Not money.

At all.

MSU is good to go, mostly because this game shows how tough is is to win at this level. Game did not hurt MSU's chances.

Not saying it did. I’m saying we could potentially move past them on the seed list and remove ourselves from the play in area.

Bubble Watch today
Georgetown vs Seton Hall- probably want Seton Hall to lose here, but then Georgetown needs to lose in the championship or they will steal a bid
Ole Miss vs LSU- Ole Miss win helps our net, but if they keep winning could keep us out of the tourney
SMU vs Cincinnati- Need a Cincinnati win here, but playing SMU would help our NET more
Memphis vs UCF- UCF win would be good here
Colorado St vs Utah St- Both on bubble

Might disagree a bit. We need SMU and Memphis to win. That would eliminate a questionable loss for us in the Semi's should it happen.

That is IF we can squeeze out USF and pull the trifecta today against them.

You're right. One game at a time!

My Bad joke attempt. "At this level" was a Maryland/Turgeon reference. Poorly Executed. I'm in timeout.

I'd argue we're team numero uno on "said bubble" and need a win today.

The Orange loss to Virginia VAULTED them into an at large bid.





And with that reasoning, ALL of the bubble teams would take the loss to Virginia if it meant securing a bid.

Unless Ole Miss winning would put them in a higher Q category than they currently are, I think it would be better for LSU to win and keep Ole Miss below the cut line.

KU vs Texas a scratch due to covid on KU. Could that open another spot up in the Tourney?

All depends if KU is shutting it down for good.

[rrshock]

It's interesting how these blue bloods avoided covid so well during the season and now are getting hit when it matters.

It's almost like a different entity is running the testing or something.

Maybe?

Assuming we start the tournament on time, this could be a WILD March Madness.
