Pac-10 not one team will win a first round game.

Temple isn't beating Arizona State.
Washington isn't too likely to get bumped by Mississippi State.

Pac-10 isn't likely to fare well as a whole, but that statement is ripe for ridicule.
If this doesn't happen I will leave this site for 6 months.

Washington 71, Mississippi State 58.

See ya sonny. Oh, and nice try yanking that crap. September 19th, and not a day sooner.

So long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, adieu ...

As if there was any lack of enthusiasm for Herb Sendek and his guys ...


Pac-10 usually shows to reasonable measure of advantage in this thing . . . would be shocked if conference got embarassed.


. . . having posted this gentle rejoinder into the teeth of marked, consistent contrasting opinion . . .

Thank you, thank you very much . . .

We won't know which conferences are sucking ass until the Sweet 16.
 
The Big Ten did pull out four first-round wins, but is certainly capable of laying a goose egg in round 2.

Exactly, which is why you can't make this determination until the Sweet 16

Yeah. I still think the Big 10 stinks.

So do I but again, once we eliminate the **** and the dust settles, we'll see who are the posers and who is for real

SEC, please pick up the courtesy phone.

Big 10, you may get a call on Sunday to turn in your jerseys.

The SEC had 3 teams, none seeded higher than 8. It **** the bed long before the tournament started. If you are a **** conference, as the SEC is this season, who cannot lay a turd in the tournament because you already are turds.
 
The ACC laid a big egg this weekend. No question. And if my brackets hold true, all ACC schools will be gone within a week. Not a good showing.

I'd go as far as saying the Atlantic 10 is a stronger league than the SEC. Perhaps not top-to-bottom, but at the top, there's absolutely no comparison.

After the obvious SEC --- which will go 0-3 this week and be home by the weekend --- it's the Pac-10. No power teams at all this year.

UCLA, USC, Arizona and Cal all go out in the first round. Arizona State and Washington are toast in round 2.

As for the Big Ten? I can see Michigan State and Purdue making the Sweet 16.

Care to revise your statements about the Pac-10? A quality 5-1 showing in the first round.


Um - How many of those five do you see getting to the Sweet 16?

I could see all five of them going home before Monday, not saying they will -- but would you be shocked?

You very well may be right . . . but the chance of this being anything other than a one-year aberration is not large.

Oh, I agree. I was just happy with the 5-1 showing.

The Pac-10 has some really talented teams, but they are also those jekyll and hyde teams. Never know which one is going to show up.
 
SEC now finished. Michigan and Purdue are doing everything they can not to falter right now.
