Too early to start a game thread but is anyone going Sunday for senior night? One of my favorite days each year.

My wife said her friend is selling tickets but I haven't decided to watch at home or go yet

Me too, any idea on what time things will get started?

Pre-game? Post Game? both?

Conference Tournaments start tonight. Atlantic Sun starts tonight on espn +. I’m hoping that Liberty and Lipscomb meet up for round 3 in the championship game. Each team won on the road in the regular season

Virginia methodically taking apart Syracuse in the Carrier Dome.

Cavs have hit 15 of 21 3-pointers. They have 15 3s and six 2s. An amazing shooting performance (except at the FT line -- oddly enough, only 4 of 10).

Up 61-46 at 8-minute timeout.

My lord Virginia is so so good. 

Completely dismantling the Syracuse zone and the half court packline is poetry in motion.

Sneak preview: my March Madness sheet will have them winning it all this year.

Mine did last year. Lolz were had by many

[LamarCheeks]

U.Va. up to 18 3-pointers. This is absolutely stunning. 

[LamarCheeks]

Wow. In a matter of about five minutes of game time, the Carrier Dome went from more than 29,000 people to about 10,000. 

Virginia just took it up to another notch late in the second half. Cavs are annihilating the Orange.

Kyle guy is 8 of 10. Crean couldnt get him.

Bubble teams Texas and TCU miss big opportunities tonight and go down in games that were never really close. Good for the rest of the bubble!

I really hope that he is able to play next season! Would love to see what he is truly capable of!!

I agree. I saw another clip where he went back and was working on his shot later in the evening as well. Hopefully by summer he can start competing again.

Yet Texas is still deemed as a 9 or 10 seed. This is the weakest bubble I can ever remember.

Because of that, give me all the Belmont, Wofford, Utah St, Murray St, Hofstra, Lipscomb. 

IU still controls their own destiny imo if we beat Illinois, Rutgers and win our first BTT game.

I'm with you. I use Lunardi since he is the easiest to access. He has Saint Mary's, Furman, and Murray State ahead of IU. One would think the only way those three schools get in is IF they win their conference tournament. If not, they are NIT bound. Also, if IU finished 8-12 that probably puts them as a 9/10 seed playing OSU or Minnesota Thursday. Both of those teams are on the bubble. If IU beats one of them you would think they would flip flop spots and IU is among the first four in playing in Dayton. Still would feel more comfortable if they make it to Saturday in the BTT (Meaning a win over Purdue, Michigan, Michigan State). 

[BGVille Hoosierfan]

Good insight here as to why IU should be in as it stands.

And Murray State is in the same conference as I think Belmont who is also really good. One gets in. Same with Furman. Lipscomb also really good and only one will get in there. St Mary's needs Gonzaga to break a leg. They dont' look like they are even close to the same level to be able to beat them on a neutral court in the conference tourney. 

 It would be great if Washington wins the Pac-12 tourney because no other team in that conference deserves a berth and that would take away from one team. If Buffalo or Wofford loses their conference tourney, they will like get two teams in from those conferences since both are considered to be at-large berths regardless of winning their tournaments. 

IU gets to the semi's of the BTT, would be feeling very good assuming they win these next two.

I think Arizona has a case to get in but if they lose at Arizona and lose to a lower level PAC 12 team in their tourney they would be out.

Yes, believe ArIzona St. is in last 4 in now according to Lunardi. Wins against Kansas and Miss St. really helping them out in the non-con. Not a fan of Hurley. Would love to see them knocked out early in their conference tourney.
