America East
#1 Seed – UMBC
The team that brought me so much joy years ago. The game where they beat Virginia is one of
those games that I wish I could go back and watch from start to finish without
knowing the outcome. Only UMBC and Vermont
are above 300 in KenPom. This is a play-in
game no matter who wins. Let’s pick
NJIT.
Big Sky
#1 Seed – Portland State
On the flip side of the KenPom numbers the Big Sky has 7
teams above 200. That’s remarkable in
comparison to the America East. Portland
State won the conference by 1 game but 5 more teams are only 2 games behind
that. This tournament is wide open, and
I would guess Montana State, while 2nd, is probably the favorite. Let’s get crazy here, the pick is 4 seeded Northern
Colorado.
Southland
#1 Seed – Stephen F. Austin
This was supposed to be McNeese State but Will Wade left and
took his dirty grimy hands to North Carolina State where he will fail year
after year until he’s fired since he’s only a good coach when he can
cheat. Well, that’s enough on that
tangent. SFA won the conference but I’m
willing to say McNeese is the favorite.
Each has 1 game and then they will meet in the Finals. The pick in McNeese St.
