Is Oakland guaranteed an NIT slot? If they are not losing against YSU could have hurt their chances to make that field. They are guaranteed an NIT slot, yes.

I think Valpo is still the biggest threat in the tournament. If someone is going to beat them, I'd prefer that it be someone else so we don't have to deal with them. Even without Peters, Valpo us the most complete team still alive.

With Oakland out after one game, how much worse will ticket sales at this neutral site venue be?

Valpo not looking too hot either . . . in a barn burner with Milwaukee. 4-3 Milwaukee with 10:10 to go in first half. What a frantic pace! Is Billy Donlon coaching both teams?

Wow. The ESPN guys couldn't play first half highlights because "there weren't any highlights!" They showed a few turnovers then cut to commercial. This is a little different from the undercard.

Officials have been awful this game. Agree completely. Announcers just got done praising how good this crew, none of whom are upper-tier officials, have done in this game.

Crazy game in the night cap. One of rhe highest scoring and exciting games I can remember in tournament history in game one. Follow that up with one of the most boring and sloppiest halves of basketball of my entire life...then there was half #2. Aye caramba.
YSU and Milwaukee pull off historic upsets over the top two seeds after playing games the night before.
Insane. Just insane.
If we can figure out NKU tomorrow, we handled the remaining teams in the field pretty well. We blew the home game to YSU, but we led big. I think the winner of our game will win the league championship. Just a hunch.
Oakland. Out. Valpo. Out.

Most certainly if it's Milwaukee or YSU and possibly UIC. WSU/NKU/GB probably all get in on the 15 line.

Joe Lunardi should really just throw a dart at the HL bracket at this point.
