Palm has MU as a #2 seed in way-too-early bracket

Most years, but not this year.  With some of the teams moving out one has to wonder in the future if we become a 6 to 7 team bid league.  Big Ten should get 8 this year and might get 9.  That would be 75% of their league and likely an all-time record from a % of a conference going to the NCAA tournament.

For a guy who claims to deal in "reality" this post takes the cake. 9 bids? Seriously? Who out of Nebraska, Penn State, Iowa and Minnesota doesn't stink? That brings you down to 8, and after losing by 28 at home to Baylor, Northwestern is hardly a lock.

I'll give you 10-1 on 9. I'll take even money on 9 vs 7 with 8 as a push. You name any amount you're comfortable with. Should be a considerable amount as you only deal in "reality".

What would Jay Bilas say (actually say, not something you think he said but didn't say and then position to all of us that he said it.)? 

My recommendation would be to go back and read what my comments were.   "Big Ten should get 8 this year and might get 9"


The Big Ten should get 8.  They might get 9.  The NCAA tournament has never cared how much a team loses by in a game.  Your Baylor score might as well be a victory of one point.  Eight is my prediction.  They will receive more bids than the Big East this year.

So everybody but Nebraska, Iowa, Penn St?    Really?
