I am assuming we have the 5 seed. I want
1 MQ
2 PC/Creighton
3 PC/Creighton
4 X

This is what, I think, you have to hope for if you're Uconn. Unless we send some sort of message tonight to Providence....but I certainly wouldn't want to play either Prov or Creighton until the very end. Like how we stack up against a Freemantle-less Xavier, and we did just beat Marq very handily. I think worst case scenario is Creighton being the 4

Kind of amazing ACC reg season title comes down to final game of Pitt@Miami. Both have beaten UVA, Pitt beat Miami at the Pete. No bluebloods to be found.
Pitt is unranked. But should be.

Butler at Depaul is a fun game. Lots of creative and athletic plays by both sides.

Makai Ashton-Langford is still at BC, he committed to UConn a couple decades ago.
I literally had the same thought 5 minutes ago. 5 years, best he shot from 3 was 30.8%, 4 years under 30%.

Its bad but somehow BC is not the worst team in the ACC, not even bottom five. They are, in fact, only a game and a half behind Cuse, Wake and UNC.
The bottom of that league is awful, the top of that league isn't so hot either.

Brandon Miller had 41 and the game winner in ot, gross.
Gross, but gotta hand it to him. They started booing him immediately first time he touched the ball. And he was great. Defense against him was horrible end of game and in OT, but SC is bad so that checks out.

I checked in for a couple minutes and the UNC - ND game looked downright putrid.

This guy on college basketball live is so pissed off about Bama's handling of this I think I can see steam coming out of his ears.

Nate Oats postgame press conference was nauseating. Screw that that team and University. Wish them the nut worst.
Everyone at the University is somehow looking even worse right now. Tonight they tried to spin it that Miller had no knowledge of the gun being in his car because it was hidden under clothes. They're trying to play it off like Miller just drove to the scene and had no idea the gun was in the backseat.

It's just unbelievable, we have the texts between Miles and Miller and we know Miller drove there to deliver Miles his gun. We know that he knew stuff was going down.

People read the lawyers statement and think a gen Z future NBA lottery pick driving a car with a dash cam can't see a text message while he's in the car for an hour from a guy he's trying to pick up.

Oats better make sure he never loses this gig at Bama, I can't see anyone, anywhere consider giving him a job after this.

It is also stunning on a criminal level what the school is willing to overlook. The attorney's statement tells the public that there is sufficient plausible deniability for the school to let him play. While they may not be able to publicly divulge information on this, they could have (and should have) privately asked for far more detail on what happened beyond the brief, carefully crafted statement.

This is without question a situation where the school's stance (from day one) should have been "we aren't letting you play again until we are convinced your involvement was so far removed from this that we can in clear conscience let you play".

No one gets more protected then college athletes at SEC schools remember what Hernandez got away with in Gainesville.
Athletes in Tuscaloosa might as well be the Murdaugh family in Hampton county.

Will be interesting how Bama does with the increasing press and pressure being the number 1 team. Did we see any cracks in the armor last night?

Capel is gonna get a nice extension out of this season, which, considering the sad state of ACC basketball this season, will lock Pitt's mediocrity for the foreseeable future.
