Or the A-frickinsmart-10 depending on how you want to look at it. Once they legalize sports gambling in Delaware we can throw together parlays like Temple/Duquesne tonight and make a killing.

That would be perfect.

I will laugh my ass off if the SEC only gets 2 bids and the A-10 & Mtn West both get 3 like they should. Wait till you hear the BCS apologists!

I'd love it too but the chairman is the SEC commissioner so it isn't happening.

well, was Dayton really a lock?? I guess they are. My Nittany Lions are officially out now I believe. That game was nowhere near as close as the 14 point final margin. Out of it from the opening tip...although more a function of Purdue shooting out of their minds for 30 minutes than anything.

They are on thin ice but they still have a shot. Losing by single digits would have helped.

Yeah, they were a lock after winning their quarterfinal round game. Penn State, close but no cigar I'm guessing. They scheduled for the NIT, played like a tournament team much of the year, but it's good to see them back on the right track.

So could this A 10 thing possibly get 4 of them in?? Doesn't Temple have a pretty high RPI?? IF Duquense wins it, could Temple get an at large??

I liked Temple as an at large possibility if they lost to Dayton but no way if they lose to Duquesne.

Couldn't the MWC pull an A10... and get 4 in...BYU, San Diego State, and Utah have all done enough haven't they?? Just let Wyoming run the table now!!

Yeah, they could, and I wouldn't be shocked at all. If NM had just beat Wyoming in the first round it would be a guaranteed four with a SD St-NM final.

So is St Mary's really playing at home against Eastern Washington to impress the committee? Whose idea was that? Go on the road and you have a chance of catching their attention.

Oh my god, overtime.
