Rex Hudler Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) Southern Illinois "handling" SMS right now, 42-20 with 4 minutes left in the first half. Also, I had not heard this, but apparently SMS will be no more beginning next year. They will officially be called Missouri State University. Just what we needed, another freakin MSU!

Palehosefan Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Only way UNC takes over the overall 1 seed is if UNC wins the ACC tourney and Illini don't win the Big Ten tourney. Otherwise Illini have it locked up for sure, atleast they should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 If Kansas loses and then falls early in the Big 12 tourney, they lose there 2nd seeding as well. Which definately makes them a scary 3 seed. 5 point game for Mizzu with 7 seconds left and Mizzu has the ball. Count this as yet another upset.

YASNY Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Wow. Illinois, Kentucky and Kansas all going down today. If this was 2 weekends from now, everybody's brackets would be screwed. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me either. Hell, sometimes the best team ends up somehow finding itself in the toughest bracket. You just never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Everything I have read said it would take a monster collapse by Illinois to lose their great tourney route, like losing 3 of their last 5 or something like that. Even assuming they lose in the Big Ten Tourney, they'll still only have two loses. As someone said, UNC making a monster run still wouldn't force them into Illinois' pod.

Brian Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 QUOTE(danman31 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 07:25 PM) Southern also nabbed Josh Tabb from Carbondale HS who is supposed to be an intelligent, athletic, stud guard. They are recruiting well enough that they should be able to maintain their stay atop the Missouri Valley Conference for quite a while. YOu guys are getting me excited for next year's team. We lose Brooks and Hairston, but with these two guys as freshmen, Shaw will be a sophmore, and tatum a junior, SIU should stay competitive...I hope.

Only up 13 now. Bubble teams beware: SMS is within 2 in the final few minutes. Also, with Kansas losing their 4th in 6 games the CBS analysts still had them as a #1 seed. I just don't see how you can be right-minded and still say something like that on national tv. Granted the rest of the field isn't doing all that well but when the committee looks at that 6-4 (at best) final 10 games they won't be leaning Kansas' way for a number 1.

Brian Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 SIU playing like they have never seen a zone before. Nobody trying to penetrate. Dribble outside for 30 secs and throw up junk shot. They do this every year. Lay an egg in the MVC tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 You hear that? It's the sound of someone's bubble popping. Southern loses. To be honest, it's hard to say Southern deserves a bid after that pathetic performance. They led by as much as 23 I think, led by 16 at half and blew it. They slept on SMS and f'd up. I don't mean to say SIU shouldn't make the tourney, but that is an embarrasing performance by the Salukis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
