10 secs left in Lexington KU winning 71 -68 and Darby Maggert putting on a show.

Hard to keep the show going when everybody in the building knows you have to be the one to get the ball.
And KY is so bad.

Once again?

In 2016, SEC went 10-8, better than the 7-8 record predicted by their seeds.
In 2015, SEC went 9-7, worse than the 11-7 record predicted by their seeds.
In 2014, SEC went 12-8, worse than the 15-8 record predicted by their seeds.
In 2013, SEC went 14-7, even with the 14-7 record predicted by their seeds.

4-year record: 45-30
predicted by seeds: 47-30

Hardly strikes me as a conference vastly underperforming expectations.

I see you went with the conference's aggregate over the last four years while the reality is over the last four years more than half the time they under perform. So the truth is whether they preform well or not isn't even a coin flip.

Well, other than in Lake Wobegon, not all the conferences can overperform every year. The SEC overperforms some years; under others - those in all cases, it's a fairly mild over/under performance.

Bottom line, it hardly is a regular severe poor performance as you seemed to suggest.

The 2016 score over achievement rest almost solely with TN and their incredible inconsistency and could play a factor this year as well. The top end is where they have a tendency to under-acheive (1-4 seeds.)
 
Final from Austin: NCState 62 Auburn 48. Fewest points ever scored by Auburn in an NCAAT game. Dominique Wilson had 23 points for NCState, which pulled its starters for most of the 4th quarter. Auburn did finish the game on a 19-4 run when NCState played mostly bench players.

This was NCState's first NCAAT victory since our Sweet 16 run back in 2007 and the first NCAAT win outside of Raleigh since 1999.

New program record FT performance by NCState, which went 15 of 15 from the FT line. The previous record was 14 of 14 against Pittsburgh on February 5, 2015.

We now await the winner of Texas and Central Arkansas Sunday afternoon.

Potaatoe. And I never said their under performance was severe. A 25 point and a one point loss are still losses.
 
I want to see how WVA handles the tourney pressure in the 1st half and how well they settle in.
 
Elon starts out by playing Martin tight on the perimeter. Elon also comes out playing M2M.
 
Elon playing well as a team beating WVA twice on hard backdoor cuts. WVA calls a TO down 8-5.
 
I'm a bit torn because I'd love to see underdog Elon do well, but I feel like WV has a much better chance of beating Maryland.
 
OSU meanwhile playing like garbage. Up by one against WKU 22-21 at 6:20 in the 2nd. OSU looks typically undisciplined, un-poised and poorly coached taking poor shots with 10 TO's. Now piling up the fouls.
 
Announcers in the Western Ky.-Ohio St. game saying that Kelsey Mitchell "seems content to be more of a facilitator" today. If that's the strategy, I find it a little odd. She has 1 point so far, and Ohio St. leads 22-21, 5:40 left in the 2nd. Lexington crowd solidly behind the Hilltoppers, unsurprisingly.
 
It's WVU up 28-27 at the half.

Elon is a well-coached team but I agree they don't have the talent to hang with Maryland.
 
T. Brown for WKU just committed an walk in the open floor with no defenders near, low bridged a forward under the defensive basket for a foul, and then fouled her man before the shot for her 3rd Where is this lady's head? Finally pulled.
 
Right now WKU has no answer for Hart. Meanwhile WKU has gone cold.
 
Hart now everywhere blocking a shot. Lady's come to play. One FT form Mitchell so far (?!?!)
 
WVa so far looks lost in the NCAA healights, up 30-29.
 
My son, who is there, says Elon is outplaying WVU but shooting badly. If they could make shots, would have a big lead.
 
Elon just re-took the lead on WVU and then forced a turnover.
 
Damn gotta hit the trail. Fortunately I record everything. Catch up with y'all later.
 
Elon just catch WVa again on the backdoor, 49-48. Gotta go.
