GO SYRACUSE!

Ahhhhhhh YES!!!!!!!!!!!

SU might sneak in this year. Boeheim is do for a national title and although they've struggled with easy teams this year, they have beat the big teams and no one is expecting them to win the tourney. They are in a good spot as the #2 seed and should go far in the tournament.

We came close in my day losing to Iniana in the final. Go SU!

TB... Isn't there a limit of how many years you can take the Cinderella designation?... Haven't they been the Cinderella for the last 6 years? 'Course I would love to see them win the whole thing....

Tell the Selection Committee. They dissed the 'Zags last year by sticking them with a 6-seed and they got knocked off by Wyoming in the first round.

They're probably still pissed.

Probably so... It's just so strange watching them... it's like looking at a negative image of every other team out there...

I dont think Gonzaga is going this year unless they got an automatic bid.

 

[sweet soft kiss]

well I gotta root for someone.... Certainly the Bruins ain't going... I am sure they shot their wad this afternoon...

ESPN.com lists them as in, which isn't a definite of course, but most people seem to think that Gonzaga is more worthy of an at-large bid than a seventh-place big-conference team like Minnesota.

The other two teams I listed, Southern Illinois and Butler, will probably be in as well despite not winning their conferences.

GO SYRACUSE!

I agree here!!!!

they are the best in the Big East...and are completly underrated as a team.

A stat in last nights game against GTown that was talked about...

They are 8-1 in games decided by 5 points or less or in OT...shows they can win under pressure.


GO 'CUSE!!!!

YUP!!! That was us and I went to the PIT to watch them take down the Zags and it was an awesome game!!

We lost our star player six games into this season---he was senior and looking to be the MWC player of the year. We lost to CSU first round in tournament.......so 20 and 10 on the year. I just don't think we have enough to get a bid except hopefully to the NIT.

I think if ND can get their shit together again they might be a team to come on strong.........

I'm from the great state of Kentucky and I think my Cats are gonna run with it this year. They're hungry for it..they can feel it.

I give partial credit to Rick Pitino for this....that heart wrenching loss in December spurred the Cats on, imho. There are lots of good teams out there though....never know. Too bad UGA won't be in it....

Now if we can only get by Vandy tonight.......

1 hour to tip off, did anyone set up a bracket thing online?
