Have a hell of a time. Arch Madness is a GREAT tournament.

#1 Loyola vs. #5 Bradley
#2 Drake vs. #6 UNI

Best case scenario for me. I'll at least have a rooting interest in the final tomorrow . For some reason uni is favored by 3 over drake tonight too

 

[podsox]

Loyola has a golden opportunity to blow this gm wide open and can’t seem to make u contested layups. Should be an interesting finish

 

[rmilia1]

Apparently McGlynn isn't playing tonighf for Drake. Bulldogs now without their top 3 scores . This Loyola Bradley game is exciting as shit btw

 

[rmilia1]

Man Townes stunk the joint up today. Bradley played some great D. With all Drake's injuries it's looking like a Bradley /UNI final is pretty likely

A Ramblers Final 4 run now will involve a trip to Madison Square Garden.

Bradley/UNI would be playing for a 16 seed IMO. Loyola wasn't that far off from one in my last bracket.

Drake playing tough . That team has got some real fire to them

 

[rmilia1]

Well you don't see a living better day of CBB than that . This is why I love going to this tourney

A UNI win would be really interesting to see where they end up as far as seeding. A team with the history they have has never played in Dayton, and rarely has been seen on the 16 line, but they will be 17-17. That'll be fascinating to me.

My guess is theyd be either the last 15 or a 16 but no play in .

I think they'll be a 16. Only way for them to land on the 15 line is if a lot of crazy shit happens IMO. Loyola would have probably been a 15. Can't see UNI being the same.

 

[podsox]

I’ll never understand how teams go in 5+ minute scoring droughts but it seems to happen every gm

Northern Iowa is the Panthers....

EDIT.....didn't notice the date on your post, that it was for today.

I think history plsts a part at the bottom of the bracket so a 15 wouldn't shock me

Just realized they have 2 wins over non D1 teams. A win would put them at 15-17. I think I would be somewhat shocked if they ended up a 15 seed. Assuming chaos doesn't occur.

 

[Kace-1]

Yeah guys I don't think we have to worry about that.
