No chance. Tar Heels are gonna romp over the rest of the teams in the ACC tourney now.

With how things are going even if we woulda beat Illinois we still might not had gotten in without winning the B1G tourney

Well you can't win em all. I was thinking/hoping for OSU's sake that all hell wouldn't break loose for bid stealing, but it kinda did. NC State is gonna be an early out in the NCAA tourney.

 

[DZ83CK]

Oregon is gonna win the Pac-12 auto bid. Yet another bid stealer. Life on the bubble this year is more perilous than ever.

A couple of tourney winners because simple plays weren’t made. If Zach Edey tossed a pass just about anywhere within half of the front court, instead of behind Bradon Smith on the sideline, Purdue would have been up 5 in regulation with about 20 seconds left. Plus Painter wasted his last timeout in OT so they couldn’t throw the ball to midcourt and call a TO to set up a decent play when Wiscy scored with 4.8 seconds left.

If Virginia would have fouled NC State in the last 4 seconds of regulation, instead of letting them try a game-tying 3, the Woffpack would be considering the NIT right now.

MAC Championship.. NCAA bid at stake
Kent goes up 1 with only 6 seconds left
and Kent INTENTIONALLY fouls Akron in the backcourt
Akron wins MAC

Validates Kant read Kant write Kent State @BuckStocksHere

Or, if Virginia's 87% free throw shooter makes a free throw to ice the game by giving them a 4 point lead, that last bullshit prayer of a shot by NC State is moot.

Yale with the buzzer beater to win the Ivy

Furious comeback by Yale and they get a game winning layup to take the Ivy bid.

Brown choked hard down the stretch, couldnt make FTs and that was one of the easiest buzzer beater shots i've seen, dude was wide open right there.

Kind of sickening to see how low the level of play is in some of these conference title games like the Ivy & A-10, and think how easy it is for one of those teams to make the tournament.

Seems like there has been a crazy amount of upsets in these small conference/mid major tournaments this year. That's definitely watered the level of play down even more. The American title game coming up is another one, featuring 16-19 Temple. A team that won 5 conference games during the regular season.

I thought they had to win 3 games anyway to begin with....winning 2 just got them to the edge.

Duquesne Dukes have some guys with terrible lazy dribbles and habits. They’re about 5-30 this half. Hanging on vs VCU.
