It's laughable that Middle Tennessee would not have made the NCAA tournament without winning their conf tournament despite going 30-4. What did they need to do to get at large bid this year go 33-1 with their only loss in the conf tournament ? They just beat the crap out of a #5 seed. The committee is not very good at knowing what teams are actually good they just pick them and seed them based on RPI wins and losses.

Well that's an awful prediction, but as a MTSU alum I'd like to see it IF UK doesn't make it out of that region.
Sorry, I have them losing to UK in the Elite Eight. I wasn't at home and didn't have my bracket handy - had to look it up.

MTSU pick needs to make up for Princeton.

Am I the only KY fan that sort of likes Huggy Bear?
I used to hate him when he was at UC,ran into him several times at the Montgomery Inn up on Montgomery Road in Cincy,he was a cigar smoking,load mouth ,drunkard then. Since his Heart Attack/Health Issues and being at West Virginia,he seems to be more mellow and slightly more likable,but I can't forgive the Elite Eight loss to the John Wall Team

A Dores run!
If you look at last year's tournament when the ACC set the record by having 6 teams make the Sweet 16, ACC teams had to win a lot of close games just like the one Vandy is in right now. It isn't like the ACC teams just blow everybody out every game. They have just executed better down the stretch against some very legitimate opponents. Point is if Vandy can pull this out and the other SEC teams can win some close games, maybe the SEC can make more noise than they were excepted to aside from UK.

I actually picked Northwestern to win in 2 of my 100% brackets so far,I have Vandy winning it in the other perfect bracket,but it has Kansas winning it all,so GO NORTHWESTERN
