Pretty sad when...

…two of the number one seeds in the tournament won’t even be on TV through the first two rounds of the tournament. I love that the guys are still playing, but the NIT is a joke. A couple of teams playing one night, turning around and traveling and playing less than 48 hours later. It’s one thing to do it in the NCAA, there is no travel involved. And no, its not just us, there are a lot of teams doing that.

I think I’m just frustrated that we aren’t on TV either of the first two rounds. I was lucky enough to be at the game last night. It was a great game that NOBODY saw. Anyway, I would love to win and have Davidson come to Bramlage next week.

That game would assuredly be on televison...

because of Curry.

We’d win that game going away. However, if KSU gets by SDSU, I have a strong feeling that they’ll be going back to Cali to face St. Mary’s in the third round.
