College Basketball Crown

This is what I needed to get to the Final Four. Might book a trip to Vegas for next year.

Several teams with loosing records

Exactly two mid-majors. But make sure that 20 loss Arizona State has a chance to extend their excellent season.

I actually don't mind the Crown. I won't watch it, but it opened up space in the NIT. Now we have a mid-major tournament, like many here asked for, that isn't pay to play. The 2nd, and if the MAC improves 3rd, place MAC team has a place for a postseason. The path we were heading down was if you didn't win the MAC tournament your season was over. Regardless of how your regular season was.

Is the winning trophy a paper crown from Burger King?

I agree, not only mainly mid-major but with on campus environments … but don’t tell Miami RedHawks fans it is for the second and third place MAC teams.

I peaked at their fan forum the other day. They feel they are the favorites to win the MAC next year, which gave me a good laugh.

They can have it.  It worked out well for OU this year!
