As Indiana, Maryland, Penn State and Michigan aren't in the tournament, finding it very easy to pull for all the B1G teams.

Let's go Sparty

Sparty up 20-8 with about 10 to go in first half...if they go onto win and play like this vs UNC they can beat them

Was really impressed by Miss St in person. Haven't watched any of their season outside of that game... not looking very good so far. Very sloppy

Make it 20-15. This is nowhere near over. Btw, if it's Michigan State, I think they'll beat UNC. It's a coaching mismatch.

Yeah people are really on Michigan State winning this one and maybe the next, but if they are so good then why are they 19-14?

Michigan State making 3 pointers is the reason they are leading,Rutgers shot bricks against Mississippi State.

Mississippi St certainly not helping the cause for future Power 6 teams with losing conference records…

@bac2therac forget what thread it was, but you pointed out how BYU was overseeded for a couple of reasons. That was a fantastic observation that I applied to my bracket predictions. Much appreciated.

no it was the opposite.....Duquense was overseeded...everything on their resume and metrics pointed to them being a 12

BYU was originally seeded as a 5 and was pushed to a 6 flipping with Gonzaga because of the no Sunday policy'

this was really a 5-12 matchup.....a weak performance by BYU vs a team that wasnt all that good until the A10 tourney
