    I didn’t have a ticket for the finals that day and in the hotel lobby I was asking around some of the Pitt administrators and staff if anyone had an extra ticket. One of the assistant coach’s wives tr

Houston?

Right. I knew I was forgetting someone.

Seriously, though, I really haven't paid much attention to anything other than us this year.

Wonder if IU has any regrets cutting loose Sampson? 

speaking of Houston, they could make the title game this year. that is a helluva team that Kelvin Sampson has, and their defense is for real.

Houston was a halfcourt buzzer beater from a S16, a late GW from an EE and possibly a FF(think they beat Auburn) the last 2 NCAATs, Sampson's done a helluva job there to get them back to some relevance. 

these announcers sure are itching to suck off bama

fuck ou tho

What's been a blessing in all of this, if that's possible, is that some of these schools have gone back to their on campus gyms to play the games, currently watching Providence/Gtown game.

Didn't think Dakich sucked anyone not named Bobby Knight off, one of the solid analysts in the game. 

Guess BlowU is actually legit.

or more accurately, the Big 12 is stacked top to bottom.

This game has gotten pretty good. Might be a close finish. 

Nope. Hoyas leading by 1 and going to the foul line with 16.9 left.

Made ‘em both.

Yeah, game started off like a Friar runaway but the Hoyas have hung tough. 

Whoa! Providence misses the tying free throw! Congrats to the home dog on the comeback. 

Ooof. Florida loses to the cocks and Houston loses to ECU

#5 and 16 and 22 have lost. 15 is losing. 14 in a close game. 3 is getting a beating by 11-7 SJU

Missouri is destroying Alabama.  Up nearly 20 with 5 minutes left 

17-2 run by the Tide to cut it to 5. 1:30

Holy collapse. 1 point game

Mizzou turnover

Bama missed layup

Mizzou missed front end of one and one

Bama blocked

Not a great sequence there. Mizzou up 68-65 with 4.1

Bama loses

Bruins getting their asses handed to them by SC

Only Fran McCaffery can get T’d up while his team is leading by double digits. Good lord that guy’s an asshole. 

IU goes on a 9-0 run to take a 33-31 lead over Iowa at the half. I think that’s their first lead in the game. 

Whoa! IU hits a long 2 to take a one point lead with :01.8 left.

Holy shit

Yes, he was way too young. Former Shocker and one of my favorites from the Smithson/Fogler transition years. I know he had Covid earlier but it still seems sudden.

Thanks for posting, looking forward to see how they pull this off.  Are conference tourneys still planned?  Personally, believe they shouldn't be held.

Haven't heard much on the topic - as usual, will be conference-specific.  I don't think they should be held either - too much chance of something going wrong at a pivotal time.  It'll suck for those bid stealers who get hot late, but it is what it is.  

Of course, Bob Bowelsby had a lot to say on it: https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/baylor-bears/2021/02/09/while-the-big-12-marches-toward-its-conference-tournament-bob-bowlsby-knows-covid-19-will-have-the-final-say/

He doesn't think there will be opt-outs by teams comfortably in the tournament.  He apparently hasn't met Baylor.   They are going to keep that #1 seed come hell or highwater by avoiding games.  

At this point, a conference tournament has no real upside and a hell of a lot of risks that key players and coaches end up in COVID protocol and miss out on a first or second round game.
