Minnesota, Michigan and Penn State all need to win today to solidify NCAA hopes

I'm pulling for a UM win because I'm a UM fan, but I want to see another MVC team in the tourney and UM, PSU, and Minn are all keeping Creighton or Il. St. out.

Cleveland St. beating butler didn't help them at all but Creighton stands a chance. They have 26 wins in the 9th rated conference in America with an RPI right around 40.


I'm not holding my breath, as the NCAA will do everything it can to keep mid-majors out, but they have a shot.

An Ohio State fan, a Michigan fan, and a Nebraska fan were walking along the beach, when they came across a magic genie. The magic genie said he would grant them each one wish. The Nebraska fan said that his father was a farmer, he was a farmer, and his son would farm, so he wished that the land would be forever fertile in Nebraska. The genie promptly granted his wish. The Ohio State fan was impressed with this, and then wished for a wall to completely surround the state of Ohio so that no Wolverine fan could ever get inside. The Genie granted his wish. Then, the Michigan fan said, "Tell me more about this wall." the genie answered "It is 150 ft high, and 50 ft wide, and nothing can get in or out of it." So the Michigan fan replied, "Fill it up with water!"
