Mississippi State laying a smackdown on Tennessee in SEC quarters -- up 19 with 13:40 to play. 

I think as of now, UT is on the 1-line.

Purdue hangs on. Booooooo! 

The big shot for Purdue was a three from Fletcher Loyer with about 30 seconds to go in a tied game.  Would IU even have the cajones to shoot a three in that situation?

Sam Houston up 4 with 7 min to go over Utep in the Conference USA semis 

Utep up 1 with 39 to go.   Sam Houston is the 1 seed

Postseason Rick Barnes strikes again

[NashvilleHoosier 3,910]

What an absolute crime this conference is pulling off. Booze only sold on the 2nd level and you can’t bring it into the arena. Mike Woodson level leadership decision, that.

Utep wins it

Vols rallying. A 23-point deficit now down to 12. 

Mississippi State up 60-48 with 5 minutes to play. 

[LamarCheeks 22,304]

5-0 run puts Miss. State back up by 17. 

That might just about do it -- 65-48 with 3:30 or so left.

It seems that since the NET was introduced, IU has more often than not been an outlier and in a bad way. I guess it's not really that surprising considering Miller and Woodson don't really care about analytics so they haven't really looked for ways to game the system or even how to make sure they aren't hurt by it.

I source clarified that I was talking about pure predictive rankings like kenpom, torvik, etc… I leave the NET stuff to @Uspshoosier and other bracket guys.

Booie is on a heater 

[LamarCheeks 22,304]

And in the ultimate insult for Tennesseee, Knecht gets stuffed by the rim on a dunk with about 30 seconds left. 

Miss. State wins 73-56. 

Guessing that knocks the Vols off the top line.

Nothing that a rolling chop block can't stop. This f****** conference.

Does this knock the Vols off the top line? 

Yeah.   Some had them on the 2 line anyway

Lander and Newman will be playing in the Conference USA finals tomorrow against UTEP

I wish we had both of them right now. 
Go WKU!

St Johns vs Connecticut is 47 to 52 at the half.  Can we score that many points in a half?  Is that allowed? 

[LamarCheeks 22,304]

Bummed -- my Norfolk State Spartans lost in the MEAC semifinals, so their season's over. 

School is just a few miles from where I live. They were the No. 1 seed and were playing in the downtown arena just a mile or so from campus. 

Probably my favorite HBCU!

Outside of Uconn, Houston seems as locked in as anyone. I think playing in a better conference this year will serve them well
