Old School Meets New School
The Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks have been the most dominant team in the entire nation this year in relation to their conference. Not only are they only team in Division I to go through the entire regular season without a conference loss, but they've won their last eight games by 30.6 points per game....
The Georgia Bulldogs are still clinging to at-large hopes for the NCAA Tournament. We don't have much of a doubt that they need a win over the Kentucky Wildcats to have a shot to get in the field.You can bet on college basketball odds at BookMaker.eu every day of the season....
After all of this, are the LSU Tigers going to make the NCAA Tournament anyway? Ben Simmons and company are two wins away from removing all doubt about their status for the NCAA Tournament, but they absolutely have to have this game on Saturday against the Texas A&M Aggies if they want any chance to dance....
On a day with a ton of games which came down to the wire, the Oregon Ducks might've put on the best show with an overtime win over Arizona. Many think the Ducks have a bit of a claim to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament if they can beat the Utah Utes on Saturday night to claim the Pac-12 championship....
For a solid 60 seconds, the West Virginia Mountaineers had to think their Big XII Tournament was over with. They had fought hard against Oklahoma for the full 40 minutes, but they looked like they had been beaten in the semifinals on a Buddy Hield half-court shot at the buzzer. Hield's hand was just barely on the ball at the gun though, and the 'Eers celebrated their biggest win of the season....
There's a legitimate chance that both the Virginia Cavaliers and North Carolina Tar Heels are going to see their names on the No. 1 line come Sunday when the NCAA Tournament brackets are released. The winner of Saturday's ACC Championship Game though, will leave no doubt whatsoever and will stake a claim to being the overall top seed and the favorite headed into the dance....
The Virginia Cavaliers and North Carolina Tar Heels have consistently been the best two teams in the ACC all season long, and it wouldn't be a shock to see either one en route to the Final Four in a couple weeks. Before they get drawn into the brackets though, they've got to go through each other in Washington D.C. for the right to be called conference champions....
Michigan needed a win to boost its resume with the selection committee and the Wolverines made a statement with a last-second three to knock off top-seed Indiana on Thursday. The way things have fallen so far in the Big Ten tournament, the Wolverines may just pick up the automatic bid....
With the Mountain West Conference likely getting one entry in the NCAA Tournament, it’s only fitting that the top two teams square off for the automatic bid. San Diego State was good enough the last four years to get an at-large berth but the Aztecs can’t blow it this year if they want to extend their run to seven straight NCAA appearances....
Seton Hall got its biggest victory in many a year when it beat No. 5 Xavier on Friday night to advance to its first Big East tournament title game since 1993 – before all but one of its current players were born. Villanova, the team with the most wins in the country, stands in the way of a tournament championship....
West Virginia managed to do something no other team could this season, and is on its way to the Big 12 Conference championship game. The Mountaineers silenced conference player of the year Buddy Hield and escaped with a semifinal win. They will try to prevent Kansas from winning its 10th conference tournament title when the two play the rubber match on Saturday....
Both Maryland and Michigan State won handily on Friday, setting up a Big Ten tournament semifinal rematch. The Spartans won that game last year and defeated the Terrapins 74-65 in the only meeting this season. MSU is hot with wins in 11 of its last 12 games and has covered the spread every time....
In all likelihood, the winner of the MEAC is going to have a relatively quick turnaround to get ready for a First Four game in Dayton on Tuesday or Wednesday night. That won't bother the Hampton Pirates or the South Carolina State Bulldogs though, as they just want to capture the MEAC title and put on their dancing shoes....
The Akron Zips are probably the only team in the MAC capable of pulling off an upset in the NCAA Tournament. However, in order to get there, they have to dispose of the Buffalo Bulls in the MAC Championship Game on Saturday night....
The Hawaii Warriors probably had their faint at-large NCAA Tournament hopes go away down the stretch of the season when they were beaten twice in their last four regular season games. They've played like a team on a mission here in Anaheim, crushing Cal State Fullerton and UC Santa Barbara en route to the Big West Final, and they'll hope to make short work of the Long Beach State 49ers as well to capture the league's automatic bid to the dance....
Rather amazingly, Tulane has cast aside a 12-21 record and five straight losses to turn it on in time for the AAC Championship Tournament. The Green Wave have seen offensive and defensive improvements against UCF and Houston. They’re now in position to advance to the finals with a strong showing on Saturday against Memphis....
What could the Connecticut Huskies possibly have left in the tank after playing four overtimes against Cincinnati on Friday? We're all going to find out on Saturday when they take on the Temple Owls at the Amway Center in Orlando....
The under-.500 Fighting Illini are playing their best basketball of the season and shooting for another upset as the 12th seed in the Big Ten Tournament. Illinois shocked Purdue in the only regular season meeting, and doing so again in Friday’s rematch would send it to the conference semifinals....
The stakes couldn’t be higher for Michigan, as it battles No. 1 seed Indiana Friday in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals. The Wolverines advanced with an overtime win over Northwestern on Thursday and they are still in the hunt, however a loss likely seals an NIT bid. The Hoosiers haven’t played since Sunday and should be well rested....
Oklahoma appears to have West Virginia’s number this season. The Sooners delivered WVU two of its seven losses and had little trouble breaking the vaunted pressure defense when the teams last met. And OU has this guy named Buddy Hield, who just dropped 39 in a quarterfinal win....
The top-seeded Jayhawks seek their eighth straight win over the fifth-seeded Bears, a streak that includes two victories this season and another in last season’s Big 12 semis. Baylor limped into the tournament with losses in three of four games, but looked like the best team in the conference with Thursday’s rout of Texas....
A look at the records shows just how closely-matched Texas and Baylor are. The teams split the regular season series with each winning on the road and were separated by just one game in the Big 12 standings. Both teams are likely in the NCAA Tournament, but bragging rights are on the line in this quarterfinal conference tournament matchup....
The top ranked Kansas Jayhawks enter the Big 12 Tournament on an 11-game winning streak and with a No. 1 seed in the NCAA’s all but locked up. The big question entering this week’s games will be motivation. K-State should be plenty motivated after dropping both regular season meetings by a combined 27 points....
America East might have the most fair way of determining its conference champion. Its tournament is spread out over a full week, and the better team gets to host the game. It's also an opportunity to see a home team storm the court after a victory to ensure a trip to the NCAA Tournament. That's what the fans of the Stony Brook Seawolves will be hoping to see on Saturday morning when they take on the Vermont Catamounts for a spot in the dance....
The conference tournament season is usually full of surprises, but there were none in either the quarterfinals or semifinals in the West Coast Conference. This brings us our third iteration of the St. Mary's Gaels taking on the Gonzaga Bulldogs. St. Mary's won both regular season matchups and in all likelihood has punched its ticket to the dance. Meanwhile, Gonzaga's status is up in the air and the Bulldogs would love to get a win to erase any doubt....
