Hopefully this garners the MAC a little more respect in the future.
It won't. The KSU run of a decade ago didn't help - this won't either. For two MAC teams to make the tourney, they'll have to be tremendous all season - beating some big boys in the early portion of the season, winning a good "bracket buster" game and dominating conference play and meet in the Championship game at the Q... I just don't see that happening.
Their's usually one good team and several pretty good teams in the conference and that's not good enough.
It would be nice if once - just once in my lifetime, lol - my Rockets actually made the thing.
Congrats to the Bobcats on a great run!
I agree that it probably won't help the MAC. About all it will help is OU in the sense that they may be able to sign a few "tweener" players this recruiting season. Players that could go to a "big" school, but not play a whole lot........they may decide they would rather play in a "mid" major conference and play more as opposed to going to a traditional power and sit more.

Did anyone happen to catch Clark Kellogg watching the end of the Ohio/North Carolina game last night before calling UK/IU?
I thought it was a really cool moment (Not that they lost, just seeing the emotion from Clark for his son)

I think Buford will break out of his slump tonight. Hopefully everyone comes out focused.

We will beat Syracuse tonight. Unc Ashville, and Wisconsin gave them everything they wanted. I think we're better than those 2 teams. Even if we don't hit on a high percentage we should dominate the boards..Kentucky is the only team that I fear out there. That's a ways away. I have us winning by 6 tonight. Our defense is just as good as Syracuse.

I had them in the eliite 8, but had Michigan State going to the final 4.You guys have their number however. Would be crazy if you guys had to beat them 4 times in a year..

Beating a team twice is hard enough. 3 times is almost unheard of. 4 times!?  Edit : Still gotta get by Baylor tomorrow before we worry about it, though.

Not sure but I doubt it, I think they try to keep everything neutral.

It's sad Buford has lost the will to go out fighting.
I will be happy when he's gone.

Guy can't even make a layup on a 1-1 situation. Missed a dunk the other night. I'm just happy were not down, with Sully only playing 6 minutes. There will be opportunities to attack the middle with Sully back in there. Also need some hoops from Smith Jr, or Craft. Not sure if Buford could make them tonight.

I see why people were happy he got his 4th foul with 9 minutes left the other night.
I've seen him have some bad games but his confidence is at an all time low right now, he can barely hit the rim.

there are situations in sports where the batter feels like the strike zone is a 5x5, or that the pitcher thinks it's a 2x2.
For me playing in goal in hockey, there are times where I feel like I'm standing in front of a soccer goal.
It seems like Buford always thinks the basket is fit for one of those mini balls you can win at cedar point. ALWAYS.
I don't want to call him a mental midget, because that's harsh, but what else could you call him?

These refs are being very ticky tack tonight. It's getting a little ridiculous on some of this stuff from both sides.
