March Madness 2024

[Xville]

Crazy that with the bid stealers and the bubble actually being strong this year the be probably only gets 4 in. In a “normal” year it’s probably 6

(BracketMatrix) has St Johns, Seton Hall, and Providence all on the outside. That would only be three Big East teams dancing. The Mountain West is projected to have six teams. The bubble busting of Oregon, NC State, (UAB,Temple), (VCU,Duquesne) probably pushed one or two BE teams out.

The mid-tier of the Big East and the Mountain West have similar (team sheets). In closer inspection, teams like New Mexico and Utah State lost their only non-conference Quad 1 game. It will be interesting what the Committee actually decides.

That was a great Ivy championship game. Yes I have a problem

Confetti going off in the middle of the A-10 Championship is one of the most A-10 things to ever happen.

Keep in mind Duquesne is pounding VCU as we type this.

Brown led by 6 with 27 seconds to go and couldn't hit a free throw to save their lives. Almost as bizarre as the Kent State-Akron ending last night.

And then there was Grand Canyon getting a celebratory dunk in the end of their game where the guy who got the dunk got a forearm shiver from a UT-Arlington player and another UTA player threw a basketball at him as that happened. It was amazing a brawl didn't break out at the end of that game - although a GCU player was ejected for leaving the bench. That guy may end up missing their first-round game because of that.

Kid X1 who has only known the Big East trying to pronounce Duquesne for the first time is fun.

They're putting on a Master Class in incompetence. Duquesne is 2-21 in the second half and still winning by 6.

[Section 200]

Wow Duquense wins the A10! Wow has the A10 fallen!

[American X]

Clear your conscience, go to Reconciliation, and tell your families that you love them. The End Is Nigh. Duquesne is going to the NCAA Tournament. We really, really should have played in the A10 tournament this year.

[X-band '01]

Who wants to be the poor soul that tells Duquesne they can't play in Pittsburgh since they're hosting?
