Big twelve propaganda is weird

The first upset of the MAC tournament has happened. #5 Ohio just edges #4 CMU in the womens bracket. (And #6 Toledo is looking very solid against #3 UMass).

It was posted to X by a spring practice invite.

Where are they going to go and who is going to pay their exit fee for the ACC?

It will be what the PAC-12 will be this coming season. Pretty much on par with what the AAC was 5 years ago.

Me either. The ACC will be all but dead in a few years when Clemson, FSU, Miami, Duke, and UNC all get poached.

That makes a lot more sense, hahaha! I just don't see the ACC at the Big 12's level right now.

Well they did go with a MAC AD! Maybe he’ll bring TK with him to Syracuse haha.

Very odd that they only referenced KenPom - not NET. Makes Miami OH look even worse lol.

I'll give you every game, but it's pretty standard stuff. 😅 Miami over UMass Toledo over BG Akron over Buffalo Kent over Ohio Miami over Toledo Akron over Kent Akron over Miami

Fantastic article on the Mac tournament from CBS sports.

Akron over Miami by 15 in the MACC. We come out super motivated and play well while Miami is cocky about having already secured an NCAAT bid (in their minds) and are unfocused. Miami has has players get into foul trouble because the refs actually call a fair game where Suder can't just bulldoze through the lane with his shoulder down and no intention of getting a quality shot. I wouldn't be surprised if Miami losses to either UMass or Toledo though either.

Let's hear some tournament predictions

I feel you could make a decent fan committee from just this forum. We have people from all walks of life. Some former players. Many die-hard 30+ year fans. Some more recent grads. Many Akron alumni and a few who weren't that still want to support the local team. Just take 10 people from this board and mix in 2-3 current students and there you go, you have your committee. No need to do a further search.

Agree

Also interesting timing to get it out the door. They also must be reading the board. Funny how the message references how busy they’ve been.

I did not see it posted anywhere else, so I'm sharing here that Troy won the Sun Belt Tournament. This loss looks much better in hindsight, especially considering it was on the road, and they shot lights out while we played mediocre at best.

I think Miami's best and most important player is Elmer.

I could understand this if the narrative-pushing media voted on this but the coaches? Certainly, some privilege occurring here.

I just corrected it. I meant SEC; was looking at ACC basketball standings prior to the post lol.

Other than flipping the Big 12 and ACC in this comment, this is why it doesn't make much sense for teams to be spending big to go from G6 to G6.

Beyond the MAC will end up being the MAC. Unless a school latches onto the Big Ten or SEC (MAYBE the Big 12), they will eventually end up in the same spot as the MAC.

Incompetent morons (minus Groce).
