DDJ with the game thing 3 at Houston with about a minute to go.

His man makes a jumper over him at the other end. Houston up 2

Everyone that really needed a win in the B12/SEC challenge has been at home. West Virginia, Missouri, Oklahoma so far. Mississippi State, Kentucky, and Oklahoma State to come. The only exception is Florida at Kansas State.

Pitt hosting Miami in a big game for our resume (though obviously getting quality wins from here on out is the biggest thing for us)

I think the case for an at-large bid is closed at this point. Would have to win the BTT.

Less than 10% chance now. But with many teams in the Big Ten constantly in flux, I won’t give up on at large til one more loss.

So most likely tomorrow

What a comeback by Pitt! They were down 68-60 with 2 minutes left and won.

As I wrote it, Oklahoma scored five straight and Welch looked terrible pushing it back to 15. Felt like I still had to post it and own it.

I wasn’t as hurt as usual. They looked suspect since mid November and the Bengals were a buzzsaw.

You can’t suddenly turn it on after playing sloppy for months.

Not Super Bowl worthy.

I need to watch more Tennessee, I’m pretty surprised at this score. Just tuning in. Are they that good?

I forgot about James. I do not remember Olivier last year though. That turn around fader in the post was nice.

Barnes might do this finally.

What an ending for Clemson

Big12 really is something this year (they have warts, but a lot of good)! Definitely fun to watch

This post did not age well. Down 21 halfway through the second half and came back to win in OT. :man_facepalming:

So a 90-team tournament? While that might help this year’s Michigan team, it would water things down way too much.

Yes but February Through April Madness has a certain ring to it. Very catchy.

Yeah, probably some sort of expanded opening round of middle-seeded teams. Expansion has been the word for a while, but feels notable that Fischer is tweeting things are lukewarm on that front. Potentially good news IMO.

I’m hoping the execs realize there’s only so much you can water down a product and get great returns

I do think that there are probably some down the line consequences. Every tv network loves their conference tournament checks, for example.
