Wisconsin was one team that KenPom’s ratings loved, but didn’t get much credit in the seedings. I thought they were a solid against-the-seed pick.

You ain't hurt...
What happened?
Boycott Facebook. It's lame. Inform your real friends that you're going to communicate with them like a normal human being, and then delete your account. Seriously.

They had a Tie up if he does not sneak in there.

Huge block by nova all but seals it up.

Just going by the comments...
this sounds like an all-time classic game, especially considering the seeds.

Last year nova had a game like this too
then they mad it to the final 4

Screw that
Give me the RM coach!!

Robert Morris deserved that game
Nova in no way earned that win. Really dissapointing to see a team like that fight so hard and fall short.

Sounds like the RM coach really had his team ready to play
I mean, they fouled a lot, but it looks like that was sort of a hack-a-shaq on Reynolds than undisciplined play. Hard fighting. Nice.

Instead of being 0-3, I'm 2-1
and yet I’m not very happy. Really wanted RM to pull that one out.

I'm in the same place

still can't believe Nova player passed up the open layup/dunk
to go up by 5 with ~15 seconds left
Yea really
"The best decision I ever made was coming to Texas," James said. "The second-best decision was coming back."
So 3-0
And now Baylor’s back in control, and Murray State is making life hell for an overrated Vanderbilt team.
