#19 Connecticut loses by 33 at Louisville - Funslinger - 03-09-2014 06:08 AM
81-48. Good grief, Southern Miss only lost by 31.

That will knock the Huskies' seeding down a notch or two. They'll still be in the Dance, though.

Tough game for them. They still should be one of the 5 that will make it from
the AAC though.

Games like that happen. Doesn't do much other than drop them a seed or 2. AAC will have 5 in.

An unusually balanced conference, at least at the top:
Louisville is 2-0 against SMU which is 2-0 against UConn which is 2-0 against Memphis which is 2-0 against Louisville.

Surprised at how many times I have seen all of the former Conf USA schools play on ESPN this year. I saw SMU play Memphis yesterday afternoon on ESPN 2.
I think BB needs to get on the ball. Southern Miss is playing good ball and deserve to be on ESPN.

Louisville is 2-0 against SMU which is 2-0 against UConn which is 2-0 against Memphis which is 2-0 against Louisville.

...that was an interesting game...was fun to watch LB go ballistic during the playground turnover festival....I think there were 5 or 6 within a minute in the early going...
also, thx for the props.....it sucks barely getting recognition from the media.....our men truly play as a team....it's been fun watching these guys mature....

According to Seth Davis on CBS Sports, the selection committee doesn't look at margin of victory. Well, I guess we'll see.

I don't. Especially for the games in Feb./early March

Not really. I was shocked when he said it.
At a minimum, you'd think they'd use MOV to separate two very close candidates.

ESPN's Opinion: Bad Loss for USM, Good Loss for UCONN
