Texas Tech survives last chance 3 at buzzer.

Baylor likely above the real bubble fray but we shall see when all the dust settles

I would be shocked if Creighton does not win this game
send it into double overtime
So many great games tonight...Louisville, Temple, Kennesaw, Creighton/DePaul. Got the YoutubeTV quad box going with 3 other TVs, and still flipping around on one of them because more than 7 games of interest.
Some say its the best day of the year

well USC is an unexpected potential bid stealer tied with Purdue at 61

SMU up over Clemson by a point just into the 2nd half

Usc great try but going to fall short

All the talk about tired legs 💤🦵 is nonsense. You build on your momentum in tourney time. They played at high level tonight.

It was probably better off for Purdue to lose and rest up.

Clemson defeats SMU in an close ugly game. This conference is trash besides Duke.

SMU now finished as far as any realistic hope

@bac2therac sorry if missed but where does SDSU stand?

Bubbly for sure

How many bids is MW?
I see them as an 11 now. They have that great win over Houston and that should keep them in the field

They could slip to Dayton though and I suppose they could still eek out a 10.

I'm not too bullish on Colorado States chances unless they win it all.

Boise is really close. A win tomorrow would help alot if the committee cares.if it doesn't they could be just out

I know conference tournaments haven't seemed to matter recently but do you think that changes at all if multiple teams from same conference are on the bubble with SDSU CSU Boise?

All the talk about tired legs is nonsense yet you then say it was probably better if Purdue lost so it could rest??? You're talking to yourself so much as usual that you don't realize your bullcrap.You blow with the wind as usual but now you're doing it sentence to sentence.

Hard to say. 5 new committee members so will there be a change in thinking. I know I am getting tricked right now into putting stock in these conference tourney games mastering not needing what happened the last 5 years. If A&M or Vandy didn't get in a few years back with their runs why should Texas get in this year.

Are Indiana/Xavier actually safe because they already were in the field before yesterday? Do both Boise and Colorado State have to win the MWC tourney to get a bid?

So in late night action..

Kentucky held off Oklahoma 85-85. Sooners are still dancing. The question is their seed.

Utah State is 99% a lock avoiding the bad loss to Nevada. Still can be anywhere from 8-11 seed depending on its finish in MWC tourney. Remember last year the committee really punished this conference with seeds spots up to 2 full lines worse than anticipated

Its been a very very chalky conference tourney week which is a bit weird. Texas really the only higher seed hanging around. We will see if that holds as AAC and A10 quarters get under way and Big 10 and SEC big dogs finally play
