Watching Marquette, playing in one of the worst second halves I've ever seen, smash UNC at home is very lovely to watch.

This should knock them out of the discussion for an at-large.

They gotta be able to finish this one off. Should be a solid win for the conference. I have not paid a ton of attention to UNC. I thought they were horrible. Out of the tournament and no chance to make it unless they win ACC tournament horrible. Apparently they are currently considered a tournament team. Again, should be a solid conference win.

Seton hall going to lose by double digits to a Butler team without their 2 best players?? Glad they’ll be off the bubble but makes that seton hall loss even more painful.

I think I could create a thread on anything, and another BY'er post the same. Guaranteed the second poster without my avatar benignly draws the attention of the BY'er. Just sayin.
These things happen, my man. VHS didn't beat Beta because it was technically superior. Sometimes you just gotta be in the right place at the right time.

2008-2013 was pretty ridiculous representation.

2008: Georgetown, Final Four
2009: UConn, Final Four
2009, Villanova, Final Four
2010, West Virginia, Final Four
2011: UConn, Champion
2012: Louisville, Final Four
2013: Syracuse, Final Four
2013: Louisville, Champion

6 Years, 2 Champions, a Final Four every single year with representation from 6 teams, and 8 total appearances. Not many conferences can match that streak.
3 #1 seeds in 2009
11 bids in 2011

The NBE was by far the best basketball league in history.

Why is UNC considered safely in the tournament by everyone? They haven't beaten anyone.
The same reason why Duke and Michigan State are creeping up. The letters on the front of the jersey. Committee will bend over backwards to sneak their darlings in. We cannot be anywhere near these teams in the bubble discussion

Marquette taking UNC to the cleaners is much more satisfying than watching Tulane lose to Louisiana-Lafayette every year.

The AAC always seemed to embarrass itself in the non-conference.
i honestly dont think i could list all the teams in the aac right now if i had to think about it, which i don't, because why would i?

The Big East is a lot better than the computer rankings, but the Big East teams hardly played any games. This is going to hurt the league on Selection Sunday in terms of # of bids and seedings.
