I think we (Richmond) have about a 50% chance of getting the nod....it's going to be real close.

I can't imagine Mizzou or Colorado getting in over them.

[Bleacher Creature]

If Mizzou gets in, there's something seriously wrong with the system.

[Bluenotebacker]

I sure hope Mizzou makes it over Richmond. I mean, c'mon, Richmond?

I'd rather see Creighton or Nevada over Mizzou.

I mean com'on, Mizzou? Can you say Belmont at home?

One of the talking heads on ESPN is really talking Richmond up...he's correctly named 64 of the 65 teams for the last 3 years so that bodes well for the Spiders.

Mizzou deserves the NIT. Nothing more.

Richmond? Who cares? Seriously, who cares?

I don't think Pitt should drop to a three seed. The Big East is definitely worthy of having two #2 seeds. Pitt led UCONN for most of the game last night. The best conference tourney atmosphere is BY FAR the Big East at the Garden. That place was electric last night.

The guy at ESPN predicts their first round opponent would be UIC and then possibly DePaul. That could be fun. The Illini play UIC frequently but haven't played DePaul in abput 45 years. Do hope that Illinois and SIU are in different regions. Would like to see them both do really well. LONG LIVE THE NOTE!

There are probably at least nine teams deserving of being a 1 or a 2 and one will fall to a 3. I'm afraid losing two out of three to UConn will drop them to 3.
