Will tip times come out tonight?

[4everwarriors]

If MU won't have shot themselves in da Johnson, a few times, a 5 seed wuz sittin' der four da takin'. Knot complanin', we're goin' Uptown, hey?

[bradforster]

It's going to be 80 degrees here in Ft Worth on Thursday.  I bought tickets last week hoping MU would come south to play at Dickies Arena.  How serendipitous is that?  Come on down for great weather and March Madness!

[forgetful]

Xavier gets the award for most Q1 wins and not in the tournament. Marquette was a previous recipient of that honor.

[mcderjim]

Someone decided it would be fun to put the greatest number of past NCAA champs in one Region... too lazy to do the math... 40% of the winners over past 50 years ?

[MuggsyB]

I think Baylor is the most vulnerable top seed.  Granted we will not be favored against UNC but I don't mind the draw at all.  You just never know what could happen.

[muwarrior69]

Apparently not for Xavier. 5 Q1 wins, 11th most difficult schedule...out. (41 in NET)

Notre dame. 2 Q1 wins, 97th most difficult schedule...in. (53 in NET)

Ah, but that I4/ND matchup is TV gold. Who gives a crap about stats and the "science of metrics". X got screwed big time, just glad it wasn't us.

I'm guessing the opposite, with San Diego State in the pod, my guess is MU is playing Thursday afternoon or morning.

Look on the bright side. At least we're not playing in Carolina.

Yeah think youre right.

I completely miss saw the locations.

I think we will be pretty early probably. Usually an 8/9 game is within the first couple tips on Thursday

[Uncle Rico]

I forgot to differentiate between SOS and non-conference SOS. It would appear that the committee did indeed award the latter.

Except for Rutgers, who had the 327th hardest non-conference SOS. It would appear they were rewarded for 6 Q1 wins. Still think Xavier was more deserving in that case...much more difficult schedule and 5 Q1 wins.

I don't think the committee did a good job at all.  The Midwest might be the worst region I've ever seen.  It's laughably bad

Unless CBS wants the Tarheels in prime time.

[Dr. Blackheart]

How the hell did Porter Moser not get a 1 seed  this year   

He likely did in the NIT.

[MU82]

X got screwed big time

Make an effen FT. Don't foul up 2 thinking you're up 3. Don't totally collapse down the stretch.

X 100% screwed themselves.

UW as the Top 3 is shocking to me.

X made their own bed going 7-11 and then losing to Butler in NYC. They have a better resume than ND, but they screwed themselves.

Agreed on the Midwest R.  It's bad.

[Dish]

Unless CBS wants the Tarheels in prime time.

They'll get Kansas in prime time from the Ft. Worth pod.

Good news is MU will get a decent broadcast crew with two 1 seeds in Ft. Worth.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Unless CBS wants the Tarheels in prime time.

This. Seems like UNC would get a night game. At least that's what I'm hoping.

[CountryRoads]

We should know the game time in roughly 2 hours.

[StateStreetMission]

UNC is a tough draw.   Whew.  We could have done better....but....  Arwuette can beat them! Gooooooooo Marquette!  Be Warriors!

Hopefully, Shaka has the team ready to compete.
The last time we faced UNC in the tournament,  Buzz was blown out.
Game was essentially over after the first 5 minutes.
