Smith done for. Bad luck for Purdue 

[HoosierHoopster 6,481]

At airport watching South Fla v E Carolina. S Fla switches well, then gets to rim for boards quickly on D, gets out on break well, and is I think 8-15 from 3 at the half. 
Now that’s enjoyable basketball

Yeah I was preemptively dramatic. He’s back now not looking 100% though. Edey also been out in 2H for rolled ankle

Purdue hangs on. Booooooo!

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

[LamarCheeks 17,311]

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.

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?

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

Postseason Rick Barnes strikes again

[NashvilleHoosier 3,643]

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 

[LamarCheeks 17,311]

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

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

[LamarCheeks 17,311]

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 17,311]

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.
