Non-MVC Conference Tournament Musings

[shocktheheart]

A lot of games could effect seeding today. All per ESPN, WSU a 4 and Creighton a 7. () projected seed per ESPN

(10) UCONN 55 vs Syracuse 58 (1) Should help WSU as UCONN can't make a run and maybe get close to WSU in seeding.
Texas A&M vs KU (1)
OSU vs Mizzou (2)
(5) Louisville vs Marquette (3)
(8) 74 KSU vs. 82 Baylor (4) (8) KSU shouldn't pass WSU in the seeding. Going to be hard for WSU to pass Baylor if that needed to be the case.
(3) Georgetown vs. Cincinatti (9)
Penn St. vs Indiana (4)
Wyoming vs UNLV (5)
Boise St. vs. SDSU (7)
(12)S. Florida vs UND (6)
Nebraska vs Purdue (9)
Stanford vs Cal (10)
Air Force vs New Mexico (7)
(12) Texas vs. Iowa St. (8)
Southern Miss (9) 81, East Carolina 78 I don't think they could catch or pass WSU
Indiana(4) 75, Penn State 58 Indiana may be a team we can't catch in seeding.

Cincinatti (9) knocks off #14 Georgetown (3) 72-70 in double OT.

#21 San Diego State (7) survives Boise State's upset bid 65-62.

Alabama (9) in a dogfight with S. Carolina with 4 minutes left. Alabama up by 2. Loss here would drop them at least one seed line I would think.

Oregon State after a big 1st half (46-33) hangs on to upset Washington 86-84 in the PAC-12 Quarterfinals.

(11) Washington just played there way out of the tourney

(9) Alabama escapes with a win over S. Carolina. Alabama can't shoot the 3 ball and I still can't figure out how we lost to that team.

Only if someone other than Cal or Oregon wins the PAC-12 Tournament, then maybe. Otherwise they are probably still in I would think. Although I am far from an even mediocre bracketologist.

Tulsa and Marshall are going to a 3rd OT in a game that has seen 65 fouls called and 92 FT's attempted. It's cracked the 3 hour mark in game length. It's on CBS College Sports.

Tulsa loses 100-105. 101 free throws shot. 33 missed. I wonder if that is some kind of record. Whoa!

Because they cause havoc on defense and force turnovers like banshees.

Not sure the Tide resemble a bunch of banshees.

Does Northwestern losing to Minnesota 68-75 in the 1st round of the Big 10 Tournament knock them into the NIT or were they a long shot for the NCAA Tournament in any case?

They were definitely last 4 in material. I'm guessing NIT for them now.

We shot 34%, they had 14 blocks, and we had a lot of seniors to replace.

Alabama's a strong defensive team, regardless of their offensive struggles, and still holds a high RPI.

That Tulsa/Marshall game has the ugliest box score I've ever seen.

Cal State Fullerton upset by UC Irvine 59-65 in the quarterfinals of the Big West Tournament.
