What I mean is, Furman had to make its opportunity...It wasn’t offered...This was all Coach Richey for getting this game and opportunity.

You don’t know what you mean because you don’t know what you are talking about.

Gonzaga laying down last night hurts all bubble teams. St. Mary's just stole a bid thanks mostly to Gonzaga.

It should bother folks that Furman had to pay to beat Villanova on the road...What about that sounds right?

Sorry but you got your facts wrong on this one. As with every year, we had some money games this year--and i mean money paid to Furman. This was one of those.

OK, but that's a completely different point than saying we paid to play Villanova. I'm sure a lot of coaches at the mid- and low-major level have to hustle to get big games on the schedule. We can't all be Duke that handpicks its games every year. Good on BR for finding that game, and even better for winning it. I hope we pick off a team every year in the same fashion.

I like how they try to find games near where their players are from—so family and friends can see them play.

And, get paid good money for doing so!

Lol Clemson with a 13th loss today

[DungeonRealm]

Clemson loss will drop them below us, so unless jerry palm jumps NC State above us we will move back into his last 4 in

Also would be nice for Xavier to beat Creighton tomorrow to move us ahead of Creighton

[DungeonRealm]

Side note:

Niko Medved finished his first season at Colorado State with a loss today going 12-20 overall, looks like he has his work cut out for him moving forward

I knew what I was trying to say on that just wrote it wrong...Sorry about that...My second response is where I was going with that.

Lunardi has replaced FU with UNCG as next 4 out. He has Liberty in the filed as the second team from the ASun. Not sure about that one.

Liberty is actually the automatic bid from the A-Sun. The bubble team in that conference is Lipscomb, whom Lunardi now has "next four out."

[apaladin]

Correct, my bad.

[mathprofhiker]

I sure hope this is right. I'd much rather see a Furman, UNCG, Belmont, or Lipscomb get in than some 15 loss team from a major conference.
