Selection Sunday-NCAA tournament thread

We're talking about mid-majors, not low majors. And the term has a very specific meaning in this context. Saint Louis is a mid-major, along with every team in the Atlantic 10 Conference.

 

Well... at least the last couple of years.
They're still not an automatic at-large team and, until Majerus turned the corner, their Spoonhour appearances were seen more as a fluke than actual long-term building.

 

Sparty is Michigan STATE.
How dare you confuse the Spartans with the Washtenaw Weasels

 

How the hell did New Mexico lose to this team? Harvard looks like shit so far.

 

Still waiting for a decent game to get me to the gym. Nothing but blah so far today.

 

Is Iverson from Colorado St a legitimate NBA prospect? He reminds a bit of Rick Mahorn

 

Yeah, today has been a steaming pile of shit.

 

Just shows how difficult it is to back up the upset of your life with a second upset of your life 48 hours later.

 

He might land in the second round, but I wouldn't touch him. He spent three years at Minnesota doing absolutely nothing. He's not athletic. He doesn't have range. He's not even that big at 6-10, 255. Stiff centers are useless.
