Congrats Friars! Spiders barely holding on……

The fact that SDSU is the trendy pick means they won't win. Friars got this one.

This. Trendy picks usually fail. I also like the Friars over an over-hyped/trendy Iowa, who everyone seems to love for their late season beatdowns in an overrated Big Ten.

LOL. Friars gonna feast on Richmond.

wow how about this- from Chris Falica(the Bear on Gameday)-
This is Richmond's 8th win as a 12-seed or lower in the Round of 64 or later. No other team has more than four (Ohio, Oregon, Tulsa).

I believe Winthrop was that trendy 12 last season.

Agree with you about Iowa. People overrate the shit out of conference tournament results.

lol people actually thought fran mccaffery was going to the final 4

They ain't smart unlike us, kayako.

They ain't smart unlike us, kayako.

In addition to a more preferable opponent for PC, it also got that 5/12 upset out of the way for uconn

I looked into the Boneyard a minute ago. I wish the Huskies would root for their conference foes during the NCAA. A stronger conference does everyone good.

It's really only Providence and has much to do with one of your fans that frequents the Boneyard. Also, to be fair, your board ain't all pro-Huskies either.

No, not pro huskies. I just think that during the march madness every team should be pulling for each other. In general, I think most PC fans do root for UConn to win.

Totally agree to root for UConn and all Big East teams. Not even a question.

Providence plays at 6:10 on Saturday.
