A flagrant 2 and a technical foul and Wisconsin is already in double bonus with 15:43 left. Nebraska’s coach has been begging to get T’ed up but hasn’t yet.
Never thought I would come in March and say…hey check out our Women’s basketball team…(it really was cool for Women’s basketball to dominate the UK sports headlines for a weekend)

So the question is, who makes the NCAA tournament?
Jacksonville State. So apparently if you are new to D1 you are ineligible to make the tournament for the first four years. Since Bellarmine is new, the regular season champ makes the tournament instead
It’s something about how recruiting (and other regulations) for D2 is different than D1, so they’re forced to wait until they have a full class of students under the D1 rules before they can compete for titles.
South Dakota State has 30 wins and just punched their ticket by winning the Summit League, the same league that had the Blow Job Bobs run to the S16 as a 15 seed last year.
The Jackrabbits seem solid and are going to be a tempting 5/12 or 4/13 upset pick.
Thanks. While that does sound stupid, it is slightly less stupid than what I was expecting.
So if a kid redshirts and is still with the team after year 4, even though he was recruited when the school was D2, the team can still make the tournament with that kid on the roster. Is that right?
in a game important for some of us, wagner got blown the hell out by bryant in the tourn final 43-70. ouch
the furman chattanooga title game ended up being game of the year, furman hit a 3 to force OT, then hit a bucket without about 5 seconds left in OT to go up 2 and chattanooga just ran up and fired up some ugly looking 3 that of course was all net to send them to the dance
Furman didn’t miss a shot in overtime. Tough way to lose a ncaa tournament berth.
