Sorry, UConn, rooting for whoever you play.

Towson loses so that really takes Charleston off the board IMO. A loss to UNC Wilmington won't be viewed the same as a loss to Hofstra.

Yet another year of disappoint for Hofstra.

I love the ACC Crybabies from UNCheat whining on how unfair it is that their conference is judged on OOC play. Oh boo hoo.

The ACC is really bad this year, although you wouldn't know it listening to them. Hard to believe how far Syracuse has fallen in recent years. As bad as St. John's has been we've beaten them four straight, three of those by double digits. I can't imagine Boeheim comes back next year after the mess that program has become. Just hope this year UNCheat doesn't make the field, and Puke has an early exit

what I love is they whine about the NET when the RPI says they're still the #6 conference.

I figure UNC would need to win a few ACCT games to sniff the Tournament, and even that may not be enough. If they get on the bubble though then I expect the Committee will put them in over more deserving teams.

I think they would need to beat Virginia in the QF to make it in. It's funny that might be a game that folks in the league actually want UNC to win to knock Virginia off any chance of being ahead of UConn or Xavier. And possibly allowing Creighton to top them as well.

Good point, but I personally would root for UVA (or whoever they play on Wednesday). :)
