No big shock, but it looks like Stallings is done.

NC State goes down to BC. 2 for 2 today on what bobinator said for teams were rooting for. Colorado looking good against Arizona St.

Another 20+ win coach from Murray State?

Has ASU fully played themselves out of the tournament if they don't make a pretty incredible comeback here in the next minute?

It'll probably be close.

Very possible. They're the second worst 10-seed on bracket matrix before this loss. They better root for Texas, Baylor, Alabama, et al to lose.

OSU is smoking Oklahoma. OU is probably safe... but damn.

Looks like Virginia Tech will stay alive to potentially pass us on the s-curve. You can lock us in ahead of NC St. and Florida St.

At least we can stop the nonsense debate about Notre Dame.

Lunardi has been insufferable about them lately on tv

Oklahoma has cut the Okie St. lead down to 6 with 10:40 left to play.

A loss today would make Oklahoma 4-11 in their last 15 games and 2-8 in their last 10 games.

I don't see why the predictive metrics like them so much. Usually you can see why a team has good predictive metrics compared to their results-based but I can't figure out Notre Dame's. They've only won two Q1 games (they're 2-8 in Q1 games), their schedule isn't particularly good, they have three 100+ RPI losses...

Wow. They're going to be sweating it Sunday what a disappointment their season became so fast

Yeah, they better turn it up quickly.

Oklahoma is the kind of 10 seed that will beat a 2 though, preparing to defend Young in just one day would be difficult. In some ways I kind of think we're a team like that also because of Davis. You have to figure out how you're going to double and that sort of thing that I think preparing for us that quickly could be a challenge.

Trocha would have fouled out of every game he ever played in if they called moving screens as tightly as they're calling them in this Notre Dame/Va Tech game

Pokes.

Make our win look better and lock us in over OU in the S-curve

Notre Dame has taken the lead on Virginia Tech

Virginia Tech was up 21. I though blowing big leads was just a BK thing.

With the loss to Okla St., Oklahoma goes 4-11 over their last 15 games. Has any team ever closed with that bad a stretch and made the NCAA tournament?

My prediction (although the Sooners should be out), they make the "play-in" game as one of the last 4 in to give the NCAA something to promote with Trae Young. I don't know if I really believe that as they should be out.

Their resume is still a tournament resume. How you've played lately isn't supposed to be a factor.

Just like Oklahoma State's resume isn't a tournament resume.

Flat out meltdown by Virginia Tech this half. A lot of simply awful possessions.

Buzz and his kids puked all over this one. Amazing loss.

Complete collapse by Buzz's team. Up 47-26, outscored 38-12 since.

Virginia Tech's last point scored (not FG but any point) was at the 6:50 mark and we have 0:35 left now.

I like their resume over the Horns.

The Pokes resume is a little proof why those cupcake non-conf opponent's performance could be important. Their 4 300+ opponents are killing their RPI and SOS.

At 15 minutes, VT was up 21 at 47-26. Then got outscored 12-40 to the 35 second mark.

That's NIU stuff.

Them and Texas have basically the same resume but the middle of Texas' schedule is better.

Their top end wins are better, Texas' middle wins are better. Just think the committee might hammer Oklahoma State for that awful schedule.
