    Which conference shits the bed in the tourney, which one will shine?

    I think the SEC will make some noise in this tourney. This is the best that conference has looked in basketball in a decade. I like the B10 too but maybe the ACC will be the best. I'm leaning SEC, ACC then B10 with most teams making Sweet 16 and Elite 8, Final four. I think the B12 and Pac12 will be the worst.

    What say you?

    acc and big10 top heavy. duke, unc, and uva can all go pretty far and michigan and msu both good enough to make final four. Purdue if they get hot. Doubt any sec team makes final four or elite 8. Big12 goes as far as kansas does. sweet 16 gonna be pretty balanced imo

    I like Tennessee, UF, Arkansas, Auburn and UK to make noise in the tourney. I think each of those teams can make the Elite 8/Final Four. UK and UT are both playing well late. Injuries to Auburn and UF probably took them out of title contention.

    I'm thinking one of the conferences of UM and MSU in the B10 or Duke, UNC and UVA in the ACC will shit the bed. I'm just not sure which?

    They cancel each other out in sweet 16 as duke would play msu and unc would play michigan. will be great games. UVA has the easier ride.

    Some damn good games on right now. NC State/Seton Hall, SDakota State/Ohio State and Miami/Loyola Chi may all go down the wire. Oklahoma lost in overtime to Rhode Island and the Gonzaga vs UNCG was a barn burner as well. Awesome first day of basketball thus far.

    Hell even the first four in games went down the wire Tuesday and Wednesday. A lot of parity in NCAAB. Fun stuff.

    Yeah the games have been competitive, we just haven't gotten the upsets yet. I think it was three years ago when there were tons of upsets, I think that was the year MTSU beat Sparty and Georgia State pulled some upsets. That year was the best.

    There goes the first upset. Loyola takes down Miami on a buzzer beater. Wow, what a shot.

    Big East is about to get their teeth kicked in. Xavier won't win 2 games.

    I can never figure out the Big East (AAC) teams. Hard to tell if they will make a run or roll over in most games. I really only like Nova this year but they might shit the bed too.

    In the last year, the Gator men has won titles in baseball, indoor and outdoor track and the women in tennis. 4 titles not bad for a year. But the only one's Gator fans care about are basketball and football.

    ACC blows. Time for the real leaders to step up. Duke, UNC and Cuse. Virginia will shit the bed eventually too.

    Big 10 only has 4 teams, but top heavy for a change. Maybe they finally win one of these things. It's been a while
