I can almost taste it...
I absolutely love watching these mid major conference tourneys. These kids, for the most part, aren’t playing for NBA contracts, they all simply want the chance to fufill a dream and play in the NCAA’s…. and even if you might not of heard of them before, the drama produced in these conference tournies is awesome.
Is the bracket posted below chronological?
In other words, will the #1 and #4 seed games be in the afternoon, and the #2 and #3 seeds played in the evening? I think that’s how they do it, but they might shift based on which will produce the better prime time match ups. Maybe this is some reason not to mind ending up the 2 seed.
Channelling Andy Williams...
It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
