NCAA Championship Week

I have to say the Big 12 Tourney has been the best:

Tech upsets A&M
Baylor upsets Kansas
Now Oklahoma St. is leading OU with four minutes left in regulation

Even Texas beating K-State was a "seed" upset.
 
I don't know what to make of what is happening to Pittsburgh.

On one hand, I want to yell and scream, "I'M SICK OF SEEING THE BEST TEAMS GET ELIMINATED EARLY AND THE TOURNAMENT BEING REPRESENTED BY TEAMS NOT AS GOOD!"

On the other hand, winning the conference tournament doesn't automatically guarantee a great NCAA tournament. As well, losing early is not a deathblow.

Great- now we have the possibility of an inferior conference champ!

Pitt is still in line for a #1 seed.
 
Look at last year and Georgia.

There is no way anyone can convince me Georgia was a worthy and deserving champ based on what happened prior to the tournament.


That was more of an aberration than anything else.

The SEC Tourney was a mess last year, thanks to the tornado that swept through Atlanta.
 
Now Oklahome loses?

This is REALLY pissing me off- all the really great teams are going out... and it's only Thursday!

I hope Mizzou or Texas can salvage the tournament for me.

Baylor? Texas Tech? Oklahoma State?

I want to throw up.
 
That last #1 seed is there for the taking.

Candidates:

1. Louisville if they win the BE title.
2. Memphis if Louisville slips.
3. Michigan St. if both the above slip and they win the Big 10.
 
This is the worst championship week I can ever recall.

I guess it pays to be mediocre.
Why are you complaining? These games have been great. And yes they do matter. You think WV and Oklahoma St wanted to lose 3 times to their arch rivals? This is what makes college basketball so special. It gets settled on the floor. Sabres you're the one who complains endlessly about the preferential treatment USC gets in football and how you hate seeing them in the Rose Bowl every year. Now you don't like upsets?
 
I am PRAYING Mizzou beats Tech.

If not, I am going to seriously lower the Big 12 conference as a whole in my eye.

A Big 12 bottomfeeder as a possible tournament champ?!

EXCELLENT point. I wish I thought of that! :up
