Iowa a 1 seed and Indiana a 3 (after just beating us by 20+), Haha.

Cal should be in the dance. If they're motivated enough they should go deep in this.

Apparently this tournament is just a trial for the NCAA to test new rules though. 4 quarters in these games.

Only 2 wins over tourney teams (Princeton won 1 bid league and USC barely made in as play in game) and 0-6 against Top 3 in PAC. Needed better wins to get in.

Meh....shit happens. If you want to go to the NCAA Tournament, you don't lose to BC. That's written somewhere.

This is always a good time for me to get great seats to SU games. The dome will be lucky to see 10K which everyone can get 1st level seats on the cheap. And after losing to BC.....getting a shot a Greensboro ,,, redemption is in my grasp. :D

They only had 3 wins against the field, and two of them wouldn't have made it, if they didn't win the auto bid. 1-8 against the at-large field wasn't going to cut it.

You know JB is getting his "Fuck with the other side" grin going already. Hope none of the darlings from Greensboro slip on the snow getting in the dome. You know some upstate NY'r will be there to help em up.

There's no blizzard in Syracuse. Come on up and catch a game at the dome.

Iowa is playing one of the Dakotas. Not sure which one. I'm fairly sure it's not Fanning or Johnson

Greensboro is gettin' em some Boeheim. :pound:

Syracuse, N.Y. -- The Syracuse basketball NIT game against UNC Greensboro scheduled for Tuesday has been postponed, the university has announced.

The game will be played at 7 p.m. Wednesday. The broadcast of the game has been moved from ESPN to ESPN3.

A source indicated that Syracuse University officials decided to postpone the game early Tuesday afternoon. The NCAA, which operates the NIT, had to approve the university's request to postpone the game.

The severe winter storm that has socked the East Coast with large amounts of snow forced the postponement.

The UNC Greensboro team and its traveling party arrived in Syracuse on Monday afternoon.

Looks like JB was wrong. There is value in playing a game at Greensboro. It wouldn't be postponed!:D
