NCAA Division One Basketball Tournament Selection

Well now it has come down to a few more games before the NCAA Basketball Tournament Selection. There are so many good teams out there vying for there bid to be the best in the land, to be crowned number one.

The way I see it: With all the conferences out there, there will be a few fillers, with no hopes of getting to the Sweet Sixteen or the Final Four. Some of the conferences that I see not having a shot are: Big Sky, Big West, Horizon League, Independents, Ivy League, MAAC, MEAC, Missouri Valley, Ohio Valley, Patriot League, Southern, Summit League, and South Land. Why I believe this is because of the schedule that most of the teams in this conference had. Sure some teams have impressive records but that's all it is; an impressive record. So, who have most of these teams really played to get them into the NCAA Division One Tournament and get them the experience to play at crunch time.

I think teams in the: Big East, America East, ACC, Atlantic Sun, Atlantic 10, Big Ten, Big 12, Colonial Athletic, and Conference USA, are the teams to watch for. With teams like North Carolina, Florida St., E Tennessee St., Pittsburgh, Connecticut, Syracuse, Michigan St., Kansas, Oklahoma, and Memphis are teams to keep your eyes on. The eventual winner out of the battle may be Memphis. But who am I to predict a winner, after all that's why we play the game, anything can happen.

If you are talking Cinderella, I would look at conferences like: Mountain West, Mid-America, Atlantic Sun, North East, South Eastern, SWAC, Sun Belt, Colonial Athletic, Western Athletic, and West Coast. With teams like Utah St., St. Mary (ca.), South Carolina, BYU, Utah, Bowling Green, George Mason, and VCU. Two of my personal favorite Cinderella team would be George Mason and Robert Morris.

Well what team do you think is deserving of the NCAA Tournament bid? Who do you think will win it all? Watch and see, but keep your fingers cross because you never know what will happen....The way I see it!
