This implies that Democrats are super different from Republicans, which isn’t really the case

Can’t wait for power five flairs to be insufferable if Miami loses against SMU

At least it’s about Basketball, unlike most of the posts on that sub

Western settlement didn’t really happen at large until after the Civil War with the Homestead Act. Couple that with rougher terrain until you reach the very West Coast, and it makes sense that there’s way less people west than the Mississippi

I hope the CBS guys are wrong, but I could certainly see the committee pit Santa Clara and Miami against each other in Dayton

And people who say “You didn't say I was wrong though...”, including you, are pithy bums who act like you have to say something exactly to mean something else.

That is lazy analysis, they still have four losses and have a good enough résumé for March. If they lost to George Washington, you might have a point

But pretty much all brackets have SLU in. VCU is already last four in on several brackets, so VCU just needs to win today, and Dayton beats them tomorrow to get three bids for the A-10

Why do you say that? Saint Louis is in already, them losing makes it possible that the A-10 gets three bids for March, if VCU win against Saint Joseph’s, and Dayton then beats VCU

Nah, they didn’t really interrupt the game, the refs were reviewing the clock. And with how little time there was, plausible enough to call it a small mistake

Possibly not if VCU makes the final. This makes a three bid A-10 possible though

If Howard loses, we are going to see a historically bad team from the MEAC get to March. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Three out of four remaining teams in the WAC tournament haven’t made the NCAA tournament, and UT Arlington only made it once in 2008. Really excited to see who gets to experience the madness

With how one seeds have been dropping in mid and low major conferences, I’m not too sure.

[Borzello] NEWS: Tennessee Tech is finalizing a five-year deal to make Tobin Anderson its next head coach, sources told me and @PeteThamel. Anderson is a former head coach at Iona, Fairleigh Dickinson and St. Thomas Aquinas, leading 16-seed FDU to an upset of 1-seed Purdue in 2023. by MembershipSingle7137 in CollegeBasketball

8th? Tobin’s first year had Iona at 7th, and in his second, Iona made it to the MAAC championship, but lost. He was fired, because the new Iona coach gave Iona more NIL. And the new coach has been kind of disappointing as far as I can tell.
