Gordio Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Crazy night last night. I think Houston punched their ticket with the big win against Cinci. Ohio State was due for a game like this & PSU is not a bad team, I don't care what their RPI says. Arizona got a nice win at ASU last night. Should be a crazy atmosphere tonight at the RC. Bonnies at large hopes are hinging on this one. They need it. I love betting on desperate teams at home. I think Bonnies win tonight. Line is sitting at Bonnie +1.5 right now. Might throw some money on them. Great weekend of basketball coming up though. Really looking forward to Nova/X tomorrow. Winner has inside track for a 1 seed.

All the local teams UB, Bona, Niagara and Canisius) are playing well this season. UB and hopefully Bona will make the tournament. Canisius will have to win their tournament to make it to the dance. If you want the scoop on Canisius Kirby's the man to talk to. As of today he has banished me from his select circle because of my unyielding position on Tryrod. Eventually he will see the light.

PromoTheRobot Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 UB men clinched the MAC East Friday. Toledo lost too, so the Bulls have a 2-game lead on 1st place overall. 4 games remain. The UB women also clinched the MAC East, but trail Central Michigan by one game for first. But unlike the men, they are a likely getting an at-large bid thanks to an RPI of 14.

Mark Vader Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Vindication for Michigan today, after blowing their first game against the Buckeyes. Michigan beat Ohio State today in Ann Arbor on Senior Day, where the Wolverines finished the season 15-1 at home. Michigan has had some disappointing losses this year, but they have had some big wins as well. The entire Big 10 has gotten bizarre at the end of the regular season 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, with a Big East team in the championship game 3 of the last 8 years, with Villanova winning it two years ago, and two teams currently in the top 5, it would seem you just haven’t been paying attention. Look at the conference, and especially top half, SOS and RPI and that tells a different story. The BE typically has gotten about 60% of the conference into the tournament in recent years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, we're only getting two from the conference this year unless there is a major tourney upset, which of course I am not rooting for.
