The final minute of Marshall-Wichita State took 18 minutes, 26 seconds— the longest we've ever recorded in the NCAA tournament

I joked that they might take 10-15 minutes to finish the last 36 or so seconds and I thought I was exaggerating.
Wonder what it could have been without commercials.
I'm convinced CUSA deserved two bids this year. It had a good year, and its regular season champion or runner-up deserved to be in this, too.

MTSU deserved a bid.

Maybe they did if Middle didn't blow it. They still should have made the conference semis at least. Regardless, it was a 1-bid league not because of the overall quality but because of the at-large pool. Aside from Murray State, Middle didn't beat any future NCAA Tournament team, including Marshall. That means they lost to pretty much every good team they played. And we didn't know how good Marshall was until now.

They are good enough to win in the NCAA Tournament. That's different than them deserving a bid.

So far I'm mad at Miami and Wichita State. I had Miami picked to go decently far.

Glad the committee made it possible to have a West Virginia versus Marshall match up.
