Boise State is now 0-10 in the NCAA tournament.

If we could just get them into a P5 conference then, after Friday, THEY would be only ones without a win!

Sparty smacking MSU around like rag dolls......

 

Edit: typed that too soon...lol... MSU charging back. Looks like a good game in the making tho.

I didn't see one person on ESPN or CBS pick Michigan State. So far Mississippi State looks no better than the entire bottom half of the Big Ten sans Michigan.

I hope the rest of the SEC likes shooting airballs as much as Mississippi State does.

The Nebraska-Duquesne rematch will be in the national title game.

Both teams a bit tight....typical first round 8-9 matchup. MSU heavy reliance on the 3 ball, and that's usually a bad thing

Duquesne is looking pretty dang good against that BYU squad.

[hskr4life]

MSU now up 15.  They look pretty good themselves.  Would love to have the B1G have a nice showing.  Always seem to be a butt of jokes that we don't perform in March.

Akron keeping it close in the first 10 minutes against a team from back East.

that mSU team might be more physically agressive than Illinois....Shannon wouldn't like that matchup....congrats to Sparty on the inevitable win.

I would WELCOME having my bracket busted by a Bluejay loss!!!

[KZRider]

After one game I am leading the nation -- along with about 12.5M other people! Better celebrate now before it all goes to pot!

[Ron Mexico]

Duquesne is pretty good.

BTW, our 89 against them is the most they’ve allowed all year.

2 games into March Madness and Nebraska is about to be 2-0 against the Round of 32 field.

Dae Dae and the Dukes could give Illinois a run for their money

If throwing your head back gets a foul call in that one, Dae Dae and Shannon could combine for 40 FT attempts.

How does Kelly Pfifer get an NCAA tournament game?  The Creighton player sets a screen, is moving causing him to get ran over, and it's a flagrant foul on Akron.  I could see it being a flagrant if he was SET.

[millerhusker]

Our Big Ten opponents are improving our metrics. Torvik now has us #20. Offensive efficiency is #31 and defense #21.

[Fullbacksympathy]

I thought Duquesne looked like a mid-tier B1G team.  I was very impressed by their athleticism and thought we played very well to get that win.  Not surprised to see them making noise.

Kansas is a 4 seed at KenPom #24.  We are KenPom #25 and an 8...

SEC is 0 - 3 so far.  All losses the SEC were the better seed.

Had a perfect bracket on ESPN through this game.  Now I have 1 loss.
