I still maintain that, without the unscheduled Covid break in our season, App would have picked up at least 2 or 3 more W's in conference play. The thing is, those losses probably helped fuel our tournament wins so maybe I shouldn't be second guessing things. Winning 4 games in 4 days is an amazing accomplishment though. GO APPS!

Outside this past weekend, there’s nothing in our resume that points to avoiding the First Four. Our only hope is for some of the upsets mentioned in a previous post.

OK - we are all ecstatic about this March Madness, so I'm only asking as a point of interest to us since none of us have any votes ---

If you HAD to make the choice which one would you choose -

1. Play in the First Round (16 v 16)
2. Play the first game against a #1 or #2

Would love to attend the "selection show" party Sunday night. I am available, have own transportation, and money if needed, plus I am diehard App fan.

Mt. St. Marys has taken over the last spot - we are now in the 16v16 in the Illinois bracket against Prairie View (I know this is not official - just giving that update) - hope we don't get matched with A&T because I want to pull for them as well -

Almost hate to wish for it but option #2 with a Michigan match-up has some appeal to it.

I've seen one prediction (Andy Katz's bracket prediction) that has us as a 15 seed playing Bama in the first round. I would be ecstatic with that, but I'm fine with wherever we land. Andy Katz works for the Big 10 Network.

He dropped us this morning into the 16vs16 against A&T with the right to face Gonzaga.

Still surreal that we are in March discussing if we want Bama, Michigan or Gonzaga.

Who would have thought 6 months ago that the App BASKETBALL team would be dancing, but football would fail to make the CCG? The craziness never stops! Great year for the Apps!!!

Time for another "Dance" themed song. Not a fan of the song but it does fit the theme. I was going to do Bowie and already taken.

This is my very generic signature added to each post.

Whereas a win in a 16 v 16 game would definitely be a positive, a matchup against #1 is going to be a loss (maybe a 1% chance) whereas #15's beat #2's just about every year

Siena/Iona lost in MAAC so winner will likely go to Play-in game. Saint Peter's might still land above us, but the other three would almost certainly be below.

If anyone but Prairie View A&M wins SWAC they'll likely go to Play-in as well. Upsets in the Southland would be big if we had any hope of moving up to a #15. UMass Lowell beating Hartford would be helpful.

Colgate is 13-1 and played 12 games. The Patriot league broke into 3 divisions and only played each other several times. They had 4 wins over 6 win Boston U and 4 wins over 5 win HC. They don’t play the championship game until Sunday against now 6 win Loyola. How they (or Loyola) avoids the playin would be amazing.

Given we are Mountaineers, should this thread not be called Goin Cloggin?

Iona beat Sienna last night. They are still alive in the MAAC and play again Friday. The last I looked their NET was better than ours. Those Troy losses are killing us.
