Big final 23.3 seconds at UNI with them and Loyola tied... Loyola can't lose this and the MVC tourney IMO.

Because they've only played 30 games, I think Loyola is allowed to schedule a game before or after arch madness, right? They should totally play BYU, no?

I thought we had teams trying to do that last year and weren't allowed.

so bracketville did an update today- I'll do new tourney watch tomorrow.

big thing in it-
Loyola now listed as 5th team out- so seems like odds of MVC getting 2 teams in pretty remote now.
North Texas now listed higher than 2 at large teams. So CUSA might get 2 teams in should UAB upset North Texas in CUSA final.

You mean teams weren't allowed to schedule after they got knocked out of their conference tourneys?

[stever20]

right. I seem to remember that.

Big loss for Ohio St today. Helps UConn out some.
