We have accumulated quite a bit of land in the college basketball imperialism map. A lot more up for grabs if we continue to advance in the east region.

Hoo boy, a win over Illinois is gonna turn a lot of that map gold.

When ISU gets a bid and is still playing, my interest is 10/10.

When ISU doesn’t get a bid my interest is 7/10

When ISU gets a bid and gets knocked my interest is 1/10. I get interested again maybe a round or two later, but I don’t like watching the rest of the round after an ISU loss.

I love the tournament every years except 2000 and 2014 after ISU lost. Those are the only two year that I could not watch the Final Four and championship game.

Would have been nice to have Kevin Harlan and crew, instead of the steaming pile we had. Oh well, if we win it doesn't matter.

It'll either be the Harlan crew or Brian Anderson/Jimmy Jackson crew next weekend since TBS has the Saturday E8 games.

Catalon/Lappas and the Eagle crew will have the Friday/Sundays.

Eddie Lampkin is with CU. Hm. What do you know, I wondered what happened to him. I haven't watched CU since they left the conference. Haven't missed them.

And Yale\SDSU will consolidate today, and that land will be up for grabs in the next game if we beat Illinois. Whichever team wins the east region will be all over this map.

Wild Utah State returned zero points from last year.

These are the regional crews. Still a chance.

Do not date Virginia.

How is Kolek eligible for the tourny but wasn't eligible for the reg season?

 

[ISU_Guy]

I haven't seen a small white point guard get this many points in the paint in a hot minute.

That's a gotta-have-it shot too...

That wasn't a factual tweet.

?

Wasn't he the play that was deemed ineligible a few weeks ago?

Nevermind - he was hurt. I don't know why I thought he was ineligible.
