I'm rooting for North Florida because a few years ago they lost to Iowa and after the game the North Florida coach did this brutally honest takedown of Iowa and it was funny. Actually, at the time it was very frustrating, but looking back, it's funny.

10 seed Milwaukee went 4-14 in the Horizon League, but they have won their first two conference tournament games and have a halftime lead tonight in the semifinal game. Let's all root for the madness of the last place team getting the autobid!

That Horizon Tournament may be the single wildest knockout event I've ever seen. So far Northern Kentucky is the only team to win a game as the higher seed. And they're a 4.

It's really a win/win in the Horizon. Northern Kentucky has only been DI since 2012 and they have never made the NCAA tournament. I can't root against Milwaukee, because they are the last place team, but it's a cool result either way.

Anyone know what the worst regular season record a team had while still making it into the NCAA tournament because they went on a tear and somehow won their poo poo conference tourney?

Hey I asked this question a couple days ago. Well if Milwaukee wins the Horizon League Championship today they will be the first team to ever make the NCAA tourney with 20 losses! 12-23 to be specific.

If South Dakota State gets a 16 seed, I feel sorry for the 1 seed. In the past ten games they've been a completely different team and Daum is incredibly good.

Probably a 15, but yes. Fun fact: Daum almost got cut from the team after redshirting as a freshman, he was so bad

Their RPI is pretty poor due to the earlier season losses when they were lovely, it's at #165 right now, which is more in line with projected 16 seeds than 15s. Maybe the committee will decide to take recent performance as a heavier factor and slot them up, they certainly aren't playing like a 16 now.

If Texas Southern, NC Central, UC Irvine, and one of the top Southland seeds (preferably New Orleans) win through, it'll be a really strong set of lower seeds.

If you figure the #1 seed has a 99% chance of winning, there is only like a 25% chance that none of the #16 seeds would have won by now, I think this is the year!
