Selection Committee Games of Interest

[49r]

Am I looking at this right?  It's 25-17 at halftime?

[royalfan]

I wish I could say it was great defense, but that was not the case.  It is really really bad basketball.

You think THIS is bad...you should turn on the Mexico vs Cuba game!

Watching Duke va tech Joe Lanardis spray tan makes him look like a umpa lumpa.

Stetson down just 44-43 at halftime.  It is about 38-7 Lipscomb when I have been watching.  Might sit out the rest of that one.

Duke chokes, bubble spot disappeared tonight 

[HuskerFever]

Virginia Tech is a lock.

[HuskerFever]

I'm going to be optimistic here and say that it would've taken Virginia Tech losing its final 2 and a bad turnout in the ACC championship.

 

Texas is another story. No excuses here, Kansas.

[TomEadesSucks]

Hopefully we get the same generous calls against Michigan that VT did against Dook,

Updating throughout the night.

This Stetson/Lipscomb game is so bad that the TV/digital scoreboard wasn't working for a good chunk of the 2nd half.

[TomEadesSucks]

Illinois would give this Texas team a game, even with Mo Bamba.

I just worry that the committee will be like "well they could've won the game with him."

[MichHusker]

As soon as I turn the Stetson game on we get a made 3 and force a TO...Too bad they are down 15

[HuskerFever]

A couple of the Big 12's best teams have found themselves in some odd streaks.

 

OU: 6 games (ended)

Texas Tech: 3 games (4 if they lose to West Virginia)

 

Maybe the computers thought too highly of these two teams and now all their opponents got credit for such big wins?

That depends, is the conference more interested in getting a bubble team named Nebraska into the tournament, or is it more interested in getting a team named Michigan a better seed?  I'll let you answer that one yourself.

We would beat Texas by 10-15 I bet.  They remind me a lot of like a Wisconsin/Indiana type team.

[royalfan]

Well, we can close the book on the trials and tribulations of Stetson basketball.  

[rwhiston]

Watching the Texas vs Kansas game and shockingly Dickie V and an interesting nugget. In the last 26 years only 2 teams have made the tournament with a conference record 4 games below 500. Baylor, Texas and Syracuse all have that possibility 

[HuskerFever]

I know Lunardi is watching this game. And he's going to say "Texas hung in there even without their best big man and an injury. They're a tournament team."

 

Meanwhile I am fully confident Lunardi didn't watch our game and he's thinking "Nebraska got lucky against Kansas. KU was clearly having an off game."

[TomEadesSucks]

Kansas screams early exit to me.

The Big 12 is a deep league but they don't have any great teams. Even if we get snubbed and Big10 only were to get 4 teams in I'd put money down that the Big 12 won't get more teams to the sweet 16.  There's no way they should have a 7-11 team getting in.

Didn't get them both, but we got the most important one of the night.
