They should not reward a 9 seed with essentially a home environment.

Same and that bracket has Creighton in Pitt which will be a Friday-Sunday game. Also would have our 1 seed be Iowa St. which I think is the weakest 1 by a decent margin. I kinda want to see how we would stack up with Purdue though.


Pittsburgh is Thursday / Saturday isn’t it?

+1000

All these years we make the dance and have to go hither and yon for our matchup and ass-suck UN-Lincoln gets in once since the present students were in diapers and they get a home game? I will come unhinged.

Imagine being a 1 seed and having to possibly play what amounts to a road game in the 2nd round. Can't imagine the NCAA would do that.

I think it would hardly be a home game, probably 60/40 in favor of the Huskers, but Iowa State fans will come out for that one.

Predictions this morning showing the big East behind the mountain west, pac 12, ACC, — pretty much everyone. Crazy.

The committee has a very difficult job this year. But it turns out the BEast is very top and bottom heavy, with the middle 5 going to the crappy NIT. Just a weird year in CBKB overall.

When we left the valley a big thought was that having a year like hall Providence or St. John’s had this year would get you in where in the valley you were always desperate. Just crazy that the second best conference overall is going to end up with three super high seeded bids and that’s it.

I was thinking about this. As much as we need doormats and "get right" games in conference play, the Big East CAN NOT let DePaul and Georgetown be as bad as they were this year. It ultimately brings the rest of the conference down. Not sure if they can withhold tournament credits, but there has to be some sort of disincentive to the athletic department to suck that bad. Once in a while down years are one thing. 3 and whatever DePaul was is absolutely unacceptable.

You are right I saw the dates of the first 4 and didn't use a calendar to verify what days they were
