Zona is your number 1 overall seed as of today.   3 of their 5 wins.  @Uconn, ucla, Florida

Illinois / Bama should be a great one 

Dayton winning at Marquette by 7 with 7 mins and change left

Huskies take the lead with 2:03 to go. Great game. Koa Peat is the real deal. 

Will be really interesting to see how NBA teams rate Peat at draft time. The risk averse teams are gonna call him an undersized 4 whose range won’t extend and the smart ones are gonna say, yeah, but no one stops him and he moves well enough to defend.

Damn, we need Marquette to not be absolute @$$ this season.

This was funny.

^^ On to OT

[Home Jersey 17,641]

Marquette doesn't even get a shot off coming out of a timeout with plenty of time. Yeesh. Regardless of the outcome of this game, they are not good. Not right now anyway. FWIW Dayton is 73 on KenPom, so not a slouch.

Yup. Said it in a comment after game 1. Great player, but juuust enough of a “tweener” I could see NBA teams being iffy to the point he at least considers coming back for a boatload of money vs possibly slipping out of the lottery. Sadly, it may come down to his tourney performance as it seems half the nba gm and owners don’t start watching until then.

Maryland pulled away in OT.   Low majors and mid majors choking on the road at a high major after  being up most the game is always going to be a thing.  So many opportunities wasted by teams in the last minutes of a game.  Like clockwork every year

As long as they are in the NET top 50 at the end of the year then it’s all good

I am going to hate playing Illinois this year 

[str8baller 8,183]

Marquette going down in flames.

[Uspshoosier 55,165]

Marquette will probably end up beating Purdue and balance out these early losses

First half of Illinois vs Bama is some of the best basketball this year so far
