TSU played horribly in the first half starting out with multiple turnovers and shooting bricks from long distance vs A&MCC inspite of 76-67 win.
yeah, it matters little to me who wins the play-in games....they're losing the next game anyways.

Point taken but it does to others ppl who follows TSU has a small but loud fanbase and they will make those voices heard inspite of going up against the Jayhawks of Kansas.

I hate the Big 10. I expect most of them to choke but somehow I always seem to pick the wrong ones choking in the first round. Although I'm consoled by the Hawkeye tears around me. :lol:

Eh, I actually like Big 10 basketball, lots of great programs and a lot of depth. Just because Iowa loses doesn't change that. Heck, St. Peter's just knocked off Kentucky, doesn't diminish Kentucky's past nor the performance of past SEC teams. Plenty of national titles among all those Big 10 and SEC teams.

I just checked the scores and got confused. The next slate of games looks like football has started back up. Check this out.

Delaware/Villanova
Miami/USC
Notre Dame/Alabama
Virginia Tech/Texas

That's some good football right there. :lol:

They don't always have that one team that stands above everyone. But since 2000: Maryland (pre-B10), Indiana, Illinois, Ohio State, Michigan State, Wisconsin and Michigan have all been in the championship game. Compare that to:

ACC: UNC, Georgia Tech, Duke, Virginia, Louisville (vacated)
Big XII: Baylor, Texas Tech and Kansas
SEC: Florida and Kentucky
Pac10: UCLA

If you ain’t first you’re last. Their last title (and I’m not counting a Maryland team that wasn’t B10 at the time) was Michigan state TWENTY TWO YEARS ago.

Only one team wins the big show each year. So if Gonzaga closes the deal this year, are you ready to say the West Coast is the best conference?

No. But what transpired 20 years ago really has zero bearing, especially you trying to glom onto Maryland’s success when they weren’t even in the conference.

South Carolina gave up the point-equivalent of three touchdowns to Howard today. That's a record low in the NCAA Tournament.

I saw that score. Like 79-21. When I saw that, I figured Montana State was really going to get pounded as well. They lost to Stanford 78-37 and got dunked on.

It's getting better, but parity in women's basketball is still a long ways off.

So, your maximum loss is $400, and your maximum net win is $1,500. Good luck, AZ! I’ve never wagered more than $20 on a tournament. Never won more than $100.

Well, my Baylor ticket is trash. so I’m down to 3 options now.

On another (more positive note): Yesterday I found a winning ticket from LAST YEAR’S tournament, a 4-way $100 parlay that paid $1200!! I had filled it out to mail it in and then someone moved it from the counter and I never found it until just yesterday. It expires on 3/27. :shock: :shock: Got a buddy headed to Vegas tomorrow and he’s gonna cash it for me!
