Penn St wins it at the buzzer! Quad 1 Buzzer beater!!  16 point comeback vs #21 Maryland

Penn St on Last 4 Ins coming in should be good to go dancing now, 12 year streak snapped

Took an entire class of 5th years to come back, hopefully our 5th years return next year and we take another leap.

Re: Bubble Watch 2023

Wow. Vandy beats Kentucky and they look they are dancing now.

20 wins, 11-7 in the SEC, 5 Quad 1 wins, 5-1 in Quad 2.    

Ever since someone posted a thread trashing Vandy they cant lose!!  10 wins in their last 11

What a job by Jerry Stackhouse, there's one former star player shining in a very tough place to win!!

Re: Bubble Watch 2023

As a former Vandy ticket holder I think this is great for them. Use to go to a lot of their games until the 'New" Nashville people destroyed the neighborhood with high rises. Could park for free at the park, have dinner at a great restaurant that  Jimmy Buffet use to go to and see a game, all within a 1/2 mile walk. Now we have limited parking, parking meters, and the traditional restaurants closed because rents have soared so high.   A relaxing experience turned into a stressful mess.

Because that's what makes a city great---free parking.

VCU is up 25 on Saint Louis 

they look a lot more like a tourney team than a lot of the Power 5s who got blown out in their tourney games

Use to cost $5.00 for parking for events downtown. Now?!  Nashville is more expensive than NYC for hotel rooms. Anyway, go Vandy. Only private school with good academics in SEC.

Re: Bubble Watch 2023

What is attendance like at the tourney? That is one of the reasons Fordham was invited to the A10. NYC market.

Re: Bubble Watch 2023

Good crowd today, lot of Dayton fans, but also a lot of Fordham fans.

Huge upgrade in a broadcast from the Mickey Mouse levels of the earlier games

Re: Bubble Watch 2023

12 teams left... including :

Gonzaga
Princeton
Florida Atlantic
San Diego St
Houston

Nearly half of the remaining field is non Power 5

I'd say a good case for more non Power 5 invites in future years

No Big 10 Teams left.
No Pac12 teams left. 
Only Miami from the ACC left.

The amazingly persevering Big East has a quarter of the remaining field.

I'm sure you're right Dude and that the Committee knows you're right too.  I'd look for the midmajor at-large bid count to increase from 4 this year to 20-25 next year.  Will that be enough Dude?
