Until today, their worst loss was home to Creighton. N/R wins against Kansas, Iowa, St. Joe's, Marquette, Xavier, Georgetown, St. John's, and Providence, all at least in mention for potential tourney teams, and 8 such wins is more than most. Big East was better than many give it credit for top to bottom (only DePaul was really bad), and they won that.

What is this? How soon you forget about Illinois last tourney game. EDIT: I am referring to reviewing possession on an out-of-bounds play.
-
Illinois rule being used a ton today.
-
Exhibit A of "Louisville looks good in efficiency because they run up the score on weaker teams" in full effect today.
-
Louisville unceremoniously showing Rutgers the exit door on the conference.

I think if Wisconsin wins the Big Ten tournament they take the 1 seed from them If Wisconsin takes a 1 seed from anyone, it might be Wichita.
-
you think they deserve to be, or you think that the committee will still make them a 1 seed (or both)? Both, they're at the top of my list.
-
Even with the bad loss today, I still think Nova is a 1 seed easy.
-
I had them in the bubble list.

Villanova is so bad. They lost to Seton Hall. No way they make it out of the first weekend, right? Are we basing it on today only or the whole season where the worst of Villanova's 3 losses before today was to Creighton and two of OSU's 8 losses were to Penn State? Two of Syracuse's losses were home to BC and GT. Overall, Ohio State is probably a 6 seed, and they wouldn't even be expected to make it out of the first weekend.

Arizona is murdering Utah's tourney chances.

It's like murderer's row all over again. We should get a t-shirt made to commemorate. :good: In fairness...it seemed like a good idea at the time, before it became a symbol of disaster in the Dusty era.

I assume you must have missed the St Louis game and pretty much all coverage of the draft pick last year. I guess I was more focused on his ability and the backlash from his DWI than his lineage.
-
I knew he was Chris Long's brother, I just never put 2 and 2 together about Howie Long. He never seemed old enough to have sons in the NFL.
-
I just learned that Kyle Long is Howie Long's son. Mind blown. Years behind, I know.

American beat top seed Boston U to win the Patriot League bid. Georgetown took a bad loss to DePaul.

And Virginia (?????). Virginia benefitted from one of the most friendly ACC schedules possible to win the ACC. Well, yeah, you're talking to annoying "Mr.-eye-test-guy" but that Tennessee-Virginia score is still pretty inexplicable. It's not even eye test, they've both been really good in effiency stats as well, but body of work hurts them. That was what I was getting at from the Virginia comment. Looking at Virginia's Tier 1 performance, it's a little lacking compared to the other top teams. They have avoided the bad losses, though, and they still have opportunities to pick up good wins. Tennessee, on the other hand, is in an SEC with two good teams and a pile of nothing. Their recent performance really kicked them up the efficiency charts, but by then the overall body of work damage has been done. They're 6-9 in meaningful games and have 2 bad losses.

@kenpomeroy 15m Somehow, Oregon State shot 74% in the first half and is trailing.
-
Like I said, though, highly open to interpretation. Virginia at 10 seems too low, but I don't see a team ahead of them I'd say has to be behind them aside from maybe Syracuse, and that's from Syracuse looking much worse of late. Body of work overall probably favors Syracuse.

And Virginia (?????). Virginia benefitted from one of the most friendly ACC schedules possible to win the ACC. And yet all the computer numbers seem to like them, don't they? They were rather efficient in their friendly schedule yes.
-
Huh, I suppose I should add Georgia, considering they finished 3rd in the SEC.

Utah beat Washington, giving it another Tier 2 win. They get Arizona tomorrow.
