I can't wait for the Tourney. I admit I don't watch a lot of college basketball during the regular season, but the tournament is always amazing to watch.

Well two picks were dead but Mason and Illinois State more than likely got a bid into the NIT which not bad though the emotions of Mason fans was sadden (I felt it myself as well).

Kansas was knocked out of Big 12 quarterfinals along with two other top seeded teams in Big 12

Pitt was upset by West Va in Big East in quarterfinals.

Louisville and Villanova advance in Big East Tourney.

The battle of ages just happened as well between UCONN and Syracuse going into 6 overtimes with the Oranges win in the end. Over three hours playing that game and that is very intense for a conference tourney game.

Lousville vs. Syracuse playing right now. Obviously I'm rooting for Louisville. Will update for final score.

Louisville win. 76-66
1st Big East title in school history. :cheers:

USC Trojans took the Auto-Bid for the Pac-10

A lot of top seeded teams in their conferences were knock out in their or second game in their conference tourneys.

UNC, LSU, MSU Trojans and Washington being the latest victims.

UCLA and other schools as well. They all get in anyway since their RPI is enough for at Large Bid.
