College Hoops Around The Country [TN opponents, RPI, others]

[golfballs]

Some conferences have at least adopted the seeding system where top 2 seeds get a triple bye. Only gotta win 2 games.

Like the WCC

Tennessee one of 6 teams nationally to play 15 Quad 1 games according to the announcers in this game. Impressive stuff!

That’s nice but you still could have a team in one of those single-bid leagues go undefeated or only have like 2-4 losses all season, and then bam they have one bad night and don’t get to go. Basketball is too crazy of a sport for that. Maybe they should shorten their regular seasons by a couple games and have a winners and losers bracket built into their tournaments? That would at least get rid of the fluky upsets.

Georgia has shot 15 more free throws than Vandy but still down 32

 

[golfballs]

Can they just call this thing. This is ridiculous

Georgia clearly didn’t want to be there.

Vandy will beat Bama then UK cruises to the semis

Vandy will beat Bama then UK cruises to the semis

This is pretty much exactly how I've been thinking as well. Alabama is as streaky as it comes. They'll probably play cold tomorrow night, Pippen will go for 30, and Alabama will lose. Vandy will then be incapable of throwing it in the ocean against Kentucky.

I feel like the winner of these early games has an advantaged of being warmed up and seem to win their next game more often than they probably should.

SEC Network crew asking if notice of allegations affects them…not at all! They don’t care! Ha ha ha

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I wish they would reward the regular season champs in those smaller conferences. They have basically made the regular season meaningless unless you are a bigger basketball conference. It’s very unfortunate.

I think the conference tournaments, while fun, are kind of silly in general. But they really make no sense for smaller conferences. The regular season champion should get the bid, and if there is a tie then have a one game playoff.

Pat Bradley… thinks 3 teams playing tomorrow may be playing on Saturday…. Florida, LSU, Bama

 

[golfballs]

Miss St favored by 4 over USC. I like S Carolina to win. Seems like msu has thrown in the towel on their season

Syracuse giving Duke a run for their money without Boeheim #1. Boeheim #2 firing away

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Syracuse went incredibly cold between 2:00 and 1:00, allowing Duke to advance to the ACC semifinals.

 

[VolGee4]

Duke is going to be a weak 2 seed. Their numbers really aren't that good.

Cuse got F’ed by the ACC suspending their best scorer

 

[Voltime123]

Duke is going to be a weak 2 seed. Their numbers really aren't that good.

Their defense is nonexistent

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Providence got very, very lucky (what else is new?) after messing up that inbound pass. Weirdly, though, I expect them to beat the hell out of Creighton or Marquette tomorrow.

 

[YankeeVol]

 

[VolGee4]

TCU beats Texas.

 

[Big time vol]

The refs tried to give the game to Florida. Refs need to be made to call the game even.

Florida lost?

 

[Jax_Vol]

Ya do hate to see the gators one and done. Maybe Cousin Eddie can help coach the b-ball team

 

[walkenvol]
