@JonRothstein @TMASTL live show?

NEWS: Missouri and Marquette are finalizing an agreement to meet in a neutral site game on November 15th at the United Center, according to multiple sources. bit.ly/4u32OxP

@TheInSneider The Hand

Sony has released two new SPIDER-MAN posters, one of which features... ninjas? Or something?

@2ndChancePoints Have no fear, Georgia is here!

Is the SEC awesome? Really hope it’s not a scenario where every team in the league wins until Mizzou tomorrow night

@Ky_3MW 15 against UVA??

UMBC will be a really good 16 (again)

@2ndChancePoints Had me so hyped. Don't get me wrong, I love Avila, but if he was the one that passed it, the broadcast would've lost their minds. Instead, "great pass by McCottry there".

My goodness that pass by McCottry

@jthom1 Parayko lol

So who wears the “C” now that Schenn is gone?

@BarstoolReags He is the definition of "Big Oaf"

Been cackling at this guy the whole game. Need him to play all 40. He’s the best.

@2ndChancePoints Jim, could you explain UT Martin, and how they are so bad offensively, to me like I'm 5? They seemed like a sneaky March darling a month ago but have been terrible since.

Checking scores and the scoreboard just keeps scrolling. Goodness there are a lot of games on now

@Ky_3MW Next 4 byes, here we come!

Dang. Mizzou is only up 31 at half.

@T3Bracketology C.C. @mred53

@T3Bracketology Any legitimacy to whoever built this? bball.notnothing.net/sunbelt.php?sp…

Second attempt at the Final Sun Belt Standings. This is February. Not every team in 2-7 played each other, missed that, so move into the next tiebreaker, win% vs teams in the standings until tiebreaker is broken. 1 Troy 12-6 2 App State 11-7 (1.000 vs Troy) 3 Texas St 11-7 (.500 vs Troy, 1.000 vs App State) 4 Arkansas St 11-7 (.500 vs Troy, .000 vs App State, 1.000 vs TXST) 5 South Alabama 11-7 (.500 vs Troy, .000 vs App State, .000 vs TXST) 6 Marshall 11-7 (.000 vs Troy, 1.000 vs App State) 7 Coastal 11-7 (.000 vs Troy, .500 vs App State) 8 Southern Miss 9-9 (1-0 vs JMU) 9 JMU 9-9 10 Georgia Southern 8-10 11 Louisiana 7-11 (1-1 vs 11-13) 12 Old Dominion 7-11 (1-2 vs 11-13) 13 Georgia State 7-11 (0-3 vs 11-13) 14 ULM 1-17

@LAOJoe @MattNorlander By out West, im talking about a 1st round site in the west

@aleckruessel @MattNorlander regionals are in the sweet 16. Before then it's sites anywhere.

Still bracketing, but there’s a real chance that Saint Louis is going to get to play the first weekend in its backyard (but not at its home arena) and potentially get a real fan advantage as a result even with a probable 5-9 seed.

@LAOJoe @MattNorlander I'm not arguing that, but those teams would play in the same city. So if SLU gets placed with 3 seed Gonzaga for example, they'll be playing out West. This is why im confused why he's saying SLU is likely to play in STL.

@aleckruessel @MattNorlander Irrelevant. Only 1st round disadvantages for the top 4 seed lines are prevented. 2nd round doesn't matter.

@LAOJoe @MattNorlander I meant it in terms of, what if they are a 6 seed? They wouldn't make the 3 seed play in STL just because SLU is the 6.

@aleckruessel @MattNorlander It's coincidental. They were sent East and they so happened to be placed in Iowa State's pod that is in St. Louis. There are no protections for the 2nd round.

@SethDavisHoops What do you mean by "likely"? Aren't only 1-4 seeds protected?

One of the subregionals the first week is in St. Louis. So Saint Louis will likely be sent there.

@W_B_Rick Never has been. But January 1 is and no one attends.

26 years on this Earth as a Catholic and I’m just now finding out Ash Wednesday isn’t actually a Holy Day of Obligation?!

@2ndChancePoints I never doubted him when he called that timeout (I did doubt him)

Really awesome Gates went back to that alley-oop play with the game on the line. Respect the hell out of that, great call

@2ndChancePoints Refs know they gotta keep the bill self big monday stat in tact

How on earth do you miss that blatantly obvious travel, what on earth?
