I like conference tournaments

All these bubble teams need Rhode Island to beat Davidson today or the bubble losses another team.

these small conferences shouldn't have a tournament at the end of the season. A lot of the time it just hurts the best team in the conference if they get upset in the conference tournament.

I don't disagree but I also like the fact that subpar teams can pull off miracles. Love those underdogs, and since they are not changing it anytime soon we might as well embrace the madness. .

Now I'm off to fix my murdered mailbox .. dang drivers !!!

I turned on ESPN 2 right at the end of the Ivy Championship, and right after the talking heads and started about bubble teams and so forth; and then they started talking about the two line, and one guy predicted Michigan would be a #2 - depended on outcomes in the SEC, or the ACC or both.

Last I looked Lunardi had Michigan at a #3, in the East.

Has anybody heard talk about Michigan being seeded as high as a #2, and the scenarios that would help that?

Davidson just knocked off Rhode Island who is a lock to make the ncaa , and now both will go.

.bye bye 1 bubble team lol.. Maybe Oklahoma or Nd!!!!

Tennessee is four slots ahead of Michigan in RPI, and they just lost.

Cincinnati is five slots ahead of Michigan in RPI and they play Houston coming up here in 15 minutes.

From what I'm seeing, Michigan looks like a lock for a #3 seed, but could be on the cusp of squeezing in at a #2.

I think we end up as a 3 or 4 seed. Probably not in Detroit.

I don't see anybody who has us lower than a three.
