Running 2018 college rings postseason thread

USC is probably thanking its lucky stars it got shuttled off to the NIT and can struggle in relative anonymity.

 

Gonzaga's leading scorer today: Jonathan Williams III
Buffalo's leading scorer today: Wes Clark

What do these two have in common? Both former Mizzou players during the Kim Anderson experience.

 

DISREGARD: @Batman dropped the accurate knowledge upthread. My excuse is that I don't accept that 1985 happened.

Hey, at least the 21-point loss only tied the largest margin of defeat by a 13 over a 4.

Sienna dumped Vanderbilt by that number in 2008.

 

Second largest. Navy beat LSU 78-55 in 1985.

As a side note, in looking over the list of major upsets, Richmond is the only team to win as a 13, 14 AND 15 seed.

 

Like Trump, it seems there's a tweet for every occasion.

 

After just one day of the tournament, two teams west of the Rockies remain alive. And one of them (Nevada) hasn't played yet.

EDIT: Whoops, make it three ... New Mexico State gets its shot at Clemson on Friday.

 

Four, Cal State Fullerton gets steamrolled by Purdue on Friday

 

Thanks, MTM ... math is hard.

Just ask the P-B-P guy working the Buffalo-Arizona game, who declared the Bulls "lead by 29" when the score was 79-60. (I guess it seemed like it, the way they worked over Arizona)

 

Three - New Mexico State is technically east of the Continental Divide/Rocky Mountains.


Geez, I weep for my conference. $100k doesn't go as far as it used to.

 

I wasn't thrilled that Arizona embarrassed themselves like that, but if it made Bayless look like an idiot, then that's one good thing that came out of it.

 

Pac-12 still has five alive in the NIT!!!!

Honestly, someone with too much time on their hands needs to put together a mock ad about the "Conference of Champions" that they usually show around halftime.
