Today's games of interest, if I missed any please let me know...


7pm St. John's at Notre Dame
Impact: St. John's is off the bubble, but a win tonight could get them back in the discussion, a loss likely finishes them off.

7pm Arkansas at Missouri
Impact: Arkansas much like St. John's is off the bubble, but with a win over UK last game, beating Missouri on the road would get them in the mix, a loss should finish them.

7pm USM at Marshall
Impact: USM is a bubble team, a loss to a Marshall team would REALLY hurt their resume.

9pm Alabama at Ole Miss
Impact: Either outcome is good as it hurts a bubble teams resume, but Ole miss has the harder remaining game so I'll go with rooting for Ole Miss in this one.

3-0 so far tonight...and honestly this last game is good either way.

Maybe we should quit worrying about what other teams do and just take care of our own business. Beat AU and Mizzou and we should be in. Lose either one and we better win the KY invitational in Nashville to seal a bid.

BTO, this is unreal that things keep falling our way. If we don't go, it's our fault. Maybe it's destiny. :D

I'm sorry, didn't realize we weren't allowed to watch other bubble games, I'll be sure to stop now on your command :hi:

I love watching it as much as you do. I just think we need to stop worrying about who beats whom and just take care of business. Hopefully the team doesnt come out flat against AU since it is their Senior night which gives them added incentive. I just hope the Vols that played FL an KY come out the next 2 games. Golden is the key.

It's important. It looked like after UGA game we would need to win 4 in a row, because of other bubble teams 3 likely does it and if they keep dropping 2 may do it. So due to other bubble teams our margin for error and chances of getting in are better, so I'd say the bubble watching is completely warranted.

I've said it multiple times, we've still gotta go play and win the last 2, or none of this matters, but that doesn't mean these games aren't important.

Totally agree. THat's why I love March Madness. It starts before the NCAA tourney even tips off!

Hey what about the Boise St game? Boise is up 7 at the half on UNLV. We need UNLV to win this game or Boise St will be in for sure.

Here's this week's bubble team schedule, for your convenience. Teams in CAPS are the bubble teams we are concerned with.

If someone with more Karma than I wanted to repost this as it's own sticky, that might be viewed as helpful...but not necessary. Be sure to cheer for the team NOT in CAPS (of course, excepting where two face off against one another, where I have underlined the one I think we need to cheer for).


Tuesday, March 5:

ALABAMA @ OLE MISS, 9pm
SO MISS @ Marshall, 7pm
ARKANSAS @ Missouri, 7pm...
Click to expand...

Ole Miss over Bama, 87 - 83
Marshall over S. Miss 88 - 84
Mizzou over Arky 93 - 63

Boise loses 68-64. Another terrible day for bubble teams.

Only winner is Ole Miss, and they were playing a fellow bubble team.

Live RIP still has Boise at 45 including the loss tonight. They play San Diego St at home Saturday who has an RPI of 33 on that site so we need them to lose again. But this helps a little. I can't see them taking 4-5 teams from the Mountain West Conference. Maybe 4 but not 5, I hope.

Or maybe so. Palm has all 5 in.

9pm Boise State at UNLV
Impact: Boise is in according to most, but losing their final 2 would likely have them on the outside looking in going into their conference tourney.

Yea didn't realize it was start of conference tourney, ill leave it off. If Bucknell loses they won't get an at large, if they make it further it may become a root for Bucknell.

Nebraska beat Minnesota 53-51. Those Gophers just don't know what they're doing man! That almost completely negates the win over Indiana... Nebraska is AWFUL!

I don't know if this game matters to us or not... but I don't see it on there so I thought I'd throw it in here.
