HedleyLamarr Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 In a huge upset, Cleveland State takes the auto bid from the Horizon League by beating Butler. This turns the Horizon League into a two-bid league for the second time in three seasons.Dustin, I think you're being slightly generous by assuming Butler is in. You can't have losses against teams like Cleveland State and make the field easily? They're a bubble team.I guess that means Syracuse shouldn't get an at-large bid. I mean, they're 0-1 vs. Cleveland State, and that game was played in the Carrier Dome. Butler, for what it's worth, went 2-1 vs. Cleveland State.....

I think it's impossible to go from ranked to "on the bubble" in one game.The tournament committee does not care about rankings - they've left ranked teams out before (and before you say it, yes, this was the era of the 64-team tournament.)If I can ask who was left out? The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Utah State and I can't remember the year. Plainsman Parking Lot.

chestnutz Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 My Orange came sooooooo close to what would've been one of the most memorable buzzer beaters in a while, with Devendorf making a Laettner-esque shot just .1 seconds late. Heartbreaker, I almost woke my whole family up when it happened.Hopefully they can pull it out in double-OT following a great play by Flynn, it's been a freakin amazing game, instant classic. erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chestnutz Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Wow, triple OT. What an incredible game. Back and forth, both teams hustling and playing their guts out even with all the fatigue. erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerbreadmann Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 THIS is March Madness, people. Did anyone else watch Texas/Oklahoma State in January 2007? I think this is a major challenge for the best CBB game I've ever seen.
