Indiana doesn't even have a shot to make the tournament do they?

I guess they are in 1 bracket on bracketmatrix.com

I wouldn't mind seeing Purdue lose and have Wisconsin grab the 1 seed. That is assuming we end up in the 8/9 game.

If nothing else, Crean is likely coaching for his job tonight (if he hasn't lost it already).

As others have mentioned, his buyout is really high and the injuries were killer this year. He is probably safe for 1 more year.

Georgetown up 5 with 8:25 to go.

Georgtown's last 3 possessions were - guy falls down, loses ball. Guy gets pushed down, loses ball. Dribble and hold, dribble and hold, jack up contested 3 pointer at the buzzer that hits the top of the backboard.

No help there for us.

Vanderbilt can't miss early on against Kentucky. Up 16.

Kentucky is up and down throughout the course of games because Monk is so streaky

Penn State lost, if they lose at Iowa... watch out: 2 bad losses

But we might need Iowa to win to stay as 2 top 100 wins.
