My erection is 45 minutes old and counting.

If I were president, I would issue an executive order dictating that if your conference is too large to have a tournament with all its members, it's too large and needs to kick out some schools posthaste. That's an executive order I think we all can get behind.

ND-Cal in triple OT. Third 3OT game of the year in the ACC.

Honestly all the one-bid leagues should cap it at eight teams.

You know you can go to the ER and they'll drain it for you and end your discomfort.

The SEC fined Ole Miss $500,000 for storming the court after its win against Tennessee on Wednesday. Ole Miss AD Keith Carter says in a statement, "Hey, ashholes, this ship is getting expensive so knock it the hell off."

My thought is just go full Indiana and let all 356+ in. Only takes a partial opening round and then 2 rounds after that to get to 64.

Most of the one-bid tourneys are over after tonight and we still have a week to Selection Sunday.

I think only the OVC hands out a bid tonight.

Nope. Riding the lightning all the way. RJYH.

That's kind of what the conference tournaments are, is an extended play-in round.

The committee has never extended an At-large bid to a team that lost two-thirds of its regular-season conference games. But the committee can always make new law. And it has never seen a league like the SEC in 2025.

The Big East, which had THREE Final Four teams in 1985, says hold my beer.

Let's see if the SEC crashes and burns again in the NCAA tournament before anointing them.

And how many times did the Pac-6-8-10-12 send multiple teams to the Final Four? That would be zero.

And between 2001 and 2024, only one non-UCLA Pac-12 team made a Final Four. Thanks for playing, 2017 Oregon.

That's some seriously consistently "ship the bed in the NCAA Tournament" basketball for a conference that touted itself as the "conference of champions."

I believe that name was changed to the "conference of cash-in."
