If you want Michigan you gotta believe they will hit a 3 eventually.

FSUs decision not to foul with 10 seconds left is puzzling...

Hey the terrible Big Ten conference lucked into one team in the final four.  How did that happen!!!!

[jayschool]

Nebraska's SOS gets better every day. Can the committee get a do-over?

Wait a minute!

If you are going to list the top 4 teams in each conference...don't you have to list Nebraska?

[Chuck Taylor]

So with Loyola and Michigan in, will every conference move up their tourney a week to take advantage of the week-long layoff?

Made the same comment when it happened.

[Cazzie22]

I believe Kansas and Texas Tech are playing today.  It’s not a foregone conclusion that Villanova and the hated Dukies will win.

Reporter asks him that---three times. Hamilton gets huffy, obfuscates, "what do you mean?" "when?" and then, finally, this gem, "the game was over", he says, patronizingly. 

 

I think the reporter, along with everyone else, was stunned that he was employed.

NU has now beaten a Final Four qualifier three of the past five years.

Big East (1)

Big Ten (1)

Missouri Valley (1)

Wasn't the SEC supposed to be this almighty conference this year? Objectively, yes, I can concede on the ACC and Big 12. And the top 2-3 from the Big East. I could also have told you not to put any Pac-12 teams far into the tournament. But it seems like the pundits swapped SEC perceptions with the Big Ten.

 

The SEC had only 2 of 8 teams win 2 games in the tournament and by the Elite Eight, SEC had 0 of 8 teams remaining. The Big Ten had half as many teams as the SEC and had far better results. Even if you added 4 more Big Ten teams who lost their first round game, the Big Ten would have performed better than the SEC.

 

I'm at a loss.

 

Tournament performance-wise, I would probably rank the conferences as:

 

1. Big 12

2. ACC

3. Big Ten

4. Big East

5. SEC

6. Pac-12

Looks like Kent got to spend some quality time with the Doc.

 

(Is it time to start spreading rumors about prospective coach sightings in Nebraska and start tracking flight numbers?)
