    That's a shame. I was looking forward to the Holy Ten (or 12 as it looks like they're trying to do). Or the Big Papal. I've heard rumors of Gonzaga but given their location and that the WCC is already Catholic-based with the exception of BYU, it's probably not likely.

      So you're telling me there's another East-West Catholic schism?

        When Illinois isn't hitting shots outside, they're REALLY bad. Iowa should be up at least 20 but instead only stretched it to 11. Probably not good.

          Thank you, Villanova. Overachieving Marquette still has a shot at the Big East title - they just need to beat St. John's and they share it with whoever else wins from Georgetown and Louisville. Once again, they are ranked higher than I would like - which means they're going to lose on Saturday.

                  That was an epic choke job. Our junior high basketball coach ran our asses off for better free throw shooting than that.

                  Hope nobody else wanted a piece of that Big Ten title.

                    Liberty just qualified for the tournament with a 15-20 record. I think they should play Georgetown in round 1.

                          Weird stuff can happen in those games. WKU was down 17 or 20 or something crazy with less than five minutes last year and came back to win.

                            The same is true of Wisconsin. They really didn't deserve to win yesterday.

                              Marquette tried really hard not to (co-)win the Big East, but alas, they did anyway. They were picked 7th in the league before the season.

                                Seton Hall over South Florida 46-42. Not at halftime. In overtime. Hooray for offensive basketball.
