@Uspshoosier if Oklahoma keeps it up and beats WV today, how many bids do you see as realistically possible for the Big 12? Is it Texas OR Oklahoma, or could they potentially both get in? Seems aggressive to think that half of the that conference could go dancing (5 of 10 teams)

How is West Virginia ranked? Honestly, they’ve lost 5 of their last 6 games (about to be 6 of 7, as they’re getting smoked by 20 at home to Oklahoma), and have a really weak looking resume of wins, with Ohio State pretty much their only good win and that was back in early December right when the Buckeyes were hitting free fall mode. They would be my absolute ideal matchup to get as a 6 or 7 seed in our region of the bracket.

Syracuse down 13 at home to North Carolina. That would be a nail in the coffin for their tourney hopes. I just can’t see the ACC getting more than four bids this year unless ND beats FSU next week and probably wins a couple games in the conference tourney.

It’s kind of weird, but I’ve gotten to the point that the thing that gets me most excited in these highlight videos is seeing the made free throws.

Been running errands all day. Just got home. Upset Saturday today huh? Every higher ranked team that’s played today has lost except for Seton Hall. Goodness. March Madness is gonna be bonkers.

Anybody know if we have an outside chance of getting a 4-seed and getting to host in the Big Dance? Would it take a B1G tourney title?

11-16 Cal beating #21 Colorado by 12 at the half. This year is gonna supply all the Madness that March can handle.

There goes that juicy 4-seed Michigan has worked their way up to. Wiscy at home Juwan Howard??

Most everything to be said has been said, so one quick hitter and I’m out: the Brunk, TJD, Smith, Al, Phin lineup needs shelved for good. Not to start a game. Not to start a second half. Not together on the court together at any point. It’s a very poor group that gets bad matchups at both ends of the court. End it.

Played an awful first half. But didn’t quit. Always gonna be a tough road game, but our early shooting woes took a W out of the equation. We will get 2 of the next 3 games.

People won’t agree with me, but I get Devonte in here. Gonna need a big shot at some point.

Puncher’s chance. Big possession here.

“Theatrics by Justin Smith”??? Dude caught a forearm to the side of the head.

That’s a really smart kid just completely not understanding basic time and score. Six minutes to play and a chance to get it to single digits and you take a fading 18-footer with 15 seconds on the shot clock?

How though, does that bounce pass get through Justin and Rob. Gotta get a hand on the ball there.

Now get it to 4 with 4 to play. Just gotta win the four minute quarters.

Get it to 8.

Get the lead to 8 with 8 to play and we have a puncher’s chance.

Ugh, our starting five is just my absolute least favorite combination of players. Just don’t play well together.

Admittedly I turned my attention to the men’s game, but love the win Ladies. Good looking box score too. Four players in double digits. Ali being Ali and doing Ali things. One thought though, can we get Nebraska’s Leah Brown as a grad transfer??? Indiana kid that got away right there.

Hadn’t really noticed until someone pointed it out last night in the College Basketball thread in response to the Maryland game, but not sure I’m on board with Archie’s philosophy that 2 first half fouls gets you benched for the half. Race was providing some good hustle plays and checking Haarms well. Stapling him to the bench after his second foul seems unnecessary. Last night Bruno picked up 3 in the first half. Finished the game with 3 and Maryland came back to win.

Good a time as ever for the ‘ol “okay, we just played and shot the ball about as bad as we could, and we’re only down 9” halftime talk.

Al should really not be a primary ball handler.

Armaan looking a little freshman-ey there.
