Iowa State in real trouble at home in OT against Kansas State.  Certainly a team 3-9 in conference has to be considered on the wrong side of the bubble.

Conference record doesn’t matter.  If they got the wins to be on the right side then they will be in.    If they keep losing it will work itself out but the terrible conference record wouldn’t keep them automatically out

Most B1G games for me are never on the main TV.  If it is it’s to listen to Hummel call the game because I don’t want to listen to some of the others that are available

Who has/had less of a conscience: Buddy Boeheim or Bryce Alford?

That’s an awesome question.    I forgot about him.   He was fun to watch as well.

Doesn't the committee also factor in how a team finishes?  Let's say they win three of their last six and then are one and out in the conference tournament.  Wouldn't losing 8 of the last 11 be a factor?

For the record, I have them still in at the moment (41st overall, 11 seed) when I put in the results from today a couple of hours ago.  I am personally of the opinion that the overall record is the important factor, not when they occurred but I thought that was something that the committee looked at.

That said, if they do finish last in the conference they are probably out because that would mean they continued to lose.

A couple of hours ago, my bracket had IU as the first team out....and Michigan in.  With Michigan's loss, I'll at least temporarily have IU back in.

No they changed that they no longer look at how they finish and instead go by the entire body of work

No the committee doesn’t look at the last 10 or 12 games anymore.  They stopped doing that 10 or more years ago.    A win in November means just as much as a win in March.    Conference records are not on a team sheet

Did you hear Hummel and Jason say that during the broadcast.   As they were going to break Hummel said ufc on later and Jason said there is ufc on now as well.  Lol

Salt in wound.   Durham 83% foul shooter.   10/10 today.  Providence up 3 with 10 sec to go

I did not…I was in the middle of my own UFC/B1G matchup with my kids during most of that game. Benetti and Hummel are top notch.

That said, he can't hit a shot from the field.  Shooting 34% from the field and 23% from three for the year.  But he's in the top five in the country in getting to the line and he hits them.

I wish I could remember the article about college basketball and/or football moving south and to the coasts. It was absolutely spot on..
