March Madness

[Admiral Yi]

Official seeds come out later today.

I've been listening a bit to Linardi on ESPN (97% accurate historically).  His 4 #1 seeds are Ohio St., Notre Dame, Pitt, and ... shit, I'm spacing on the 4th.  Probably Kansas.

He has Duke as a 2, and UConn as a two.  He had only gone through the East bracket when I stopped watching.

11 Big East teams in according to Linardi.

Which is just ridiculous.

Which is just ridiculous.

You were thinking it would be 12?

That was a hell of a shot.  I didn't realize it was tied though, I thought Washington was down one there.

No Zona had tied it up on nice shot with 20secs left.

Thomas was amazing in tournament played like 123 of 125mins.
and was clutch
21pts-11 assists vs Wazzu
10pts-12 assists vs Ducks
28pts-7 assists vs Cats.

  Don't hate on the Big East just because they're that good, Berk.

[Ed Anger]

I hope the University of Dayton crashes and burns if they get in.

I think it's important to keep in mind when doing comparisons that the Big East is a huge conference.

That being said, it does seem that year after year after year the Big East gets about 7 of the spots in the top 10.  Not necessarily #1, but the bulk of the leader board after that.

[katmai]

Which is amazing since haven't had a team in championship game since 2004.

That was one hell of a finish, both in regulation and in overtime.

I thought Arizona had it put away when Williams had that and 1 play with 30 seconds left.

Thomas was just not going to be denied. Congrats on the Pac-10 Tourney Championship. It's a small consolation for losing the conference, of course, but certainly better than nothing...

Now, could the Huskies arrange to win more than 1 game in the tournament for a change, please?

[Ed Anger]

Ugh, none of those first four games in Dayton looks interesting at all. Not worth going to at least.

[Admiral Yi]

7 teams from the Big 10?  3 from the Atlantic 10???  I dunno guys.

Uh their hurdle has always been the Sweet 16 since Romar took over, so it's 3 games they can't win thank you very much.

Washington's post-season chokiness is so legendary that even I can pretend to know about it.
