WEDNESDAY WHISPERS
- March Madness has officially begun with the Big South Conference Tournament in full swing. Too bad first place Winthrop had to play RPI #317 Liberty in the first round. Win by 40 and drop 10+ spots in the RPI...makes you wonder what we're all doing here doesn't it?
- Seton Hall's victory over Cincinnati last night pushed P.J. Carlisemo's (he's still the coach right) club into the field as of today, while Bob Huggin's (he's still the coach right?) Bearcats fell from being solidly in the field to one of the last teams in.
- If one team goes in, another has to come out, and for right now that team is Colorado. The Buffs still probably need at least two, maybe three more wins if they're going to get in. Although if they could get the one tonight in Lawrence that would clinch it.
- Don't look now but the Louisville Cardinals have re-appeared on our bubble board for the first time in a couple of weeks, and with games this week against Marquette and @UCONN they are in position to get themselves back onto the bubble heading into the Big East Tournament.
Other Games to Watch Tonight:
Duke @ Florida State - Doesn't it seem like this is the situation every year?
Kentucky @ Tennessee - The Vols showed they were beatable at home over the weekend and the 'Cats are needing another victory to ensure inclusion in the field.
Texas @ Texas A%M - Okay Aggies, here's your chance...don't blow it.
Indiana @ Purdue - Don't watch this one. Just check the score in the morning and see if the Hoosiers won a game on the road.
Virginia @ North Carolina - The Cavaliers are another team who are one big road win, like this one, away from being squarely on the bubble.
Texas Tech @ Baylor - With Missouri's loss at Iowa State last night the Bears have a chance to climb out of the Big 12 cellar for the first time since CSI: Waco. Now that's good television!
Game Not To Watch Tonight:
Eastern Michigan @ Central Michigan - These MAC teams have three conference wins between them, and had their bubbles burst about the time you were sitting down for Thanksgiving turkey.

Let me just say that I could not have picked a better group of games to watch. You people should start trusting us right about now!!
Mr. Vandalay,
What is a shot clock and why does that old white guy keep telling me there's only 8 seconds left on it during the timeout?
What a freakin' joke! I'm done touting Texas as a #1 seed. I'm still on tilt over that game...damn I hate losing to atm. Seriously, if aggy makes the big dance, I just may vomit.
