This has been an incredible tournament thus far. Helps that Akron is advancing, but props to college soccer for delivering as a whole. Maybe those snobby ESPN/ACC honk commentators from Thursday night are learning their lesson about what a more level playing field actually looks like in college athletics.

I like St. Louis's chances to beat #11 Bryant and give us a fourth round home game if we win.

Turnbull didn’t play much for Evansville tonight, but Hughes did. Yet Barre didn’t get much playing time again. This seemed like the perfect matchup for him. Also, I hate to say it, but when Brisco doesn’t see the floor at all, even for the garbage minutes it leads me to think he might not be here next year. Just not a good sign.

It's not like Halligan is filling the stat sheet. The guys in at the end are just playing hard until what is truly the final possession. None of it is running up the score if the other team is playing hard, too. MMK pulled the ball back tonight and we had a "shot clock violation" on the final possession. I'm sure among the coaching fraternity it is being talked about that improving a team's metrics is the name of the game when it comes to March arguments. Hard to fault anyone with that in mind.

Murray St loses to MTSU. The Cayman Islands is brutal this year

stronger bench, maybe? Halligan could start at any directional school, right? is there a magic # to stop running up the score? 25? 30?

Townsend really carried the load for Yale today. He’s good.

Yep!! 👍

Margin of Victory as a metric is something Groce is playing into. He's leaving starters in later than usual and allowing the bench guys to go full bore until the very final possession. He knows he has a Cinderella caliber team that will need every argument possible to get the highest seed possible.

KenPom might be broken 😂. Yale is 83 this should go down as a Q2 game

Me too. 🤯🤯🤯

Out of reactions so here is one 🤯🤯🤯

Akron just moved up to 55 on Kenpom!!

Not that I've seen much Yale hoops this year, but judging by heights I think this looks like a good matchup for us.

Only Georgetown - High Point and Maryland - Connecticut will have two seeded teams playing each other in the Sweet 16.

💯

#9 San Diego loses 2-1 to Grand Canyon. Insane day of upsets!

It took a while to figure them out, but once we did, good night.

Eric has grown up a lot this weekend. Starting to get confident.

The revenge tour has a new member added. We came out so flat against them last year. Would love to pay it back

He's the hinges of the Groce family bus.

The Zips move on to the championship game of the Paradise Jam against Yale. Yale was unanimously selected as the preseason favorite to win the Ivy League. They are currently 5-1 with wins over Navy, Quinnipiac, Stony Brook, Green Bay and Charleston and a loss to Rhode Island. 1st team all-Ivy League 6’7” senior forward Nick Townsend leads Yale with 19.5 ppg and 7.7 rpg. 6’6” sophomore forward Riley Fox contributes 12.7 ppg. 6’6” sophomore forward Isaac Celiscar averages 11.8 ppg and 5.2 rpg. As you might imagine, these are not transfers or guys on their 7th year of college basketball.

We want free tacos!!

I think the refs are just trying to keep tempers from flying and Clark here wants more hustle!! Ha!!
