Wichita St. lost out in its play in game so we have one team in the bracket. In the NIT SMU lost out to Boise.

Probably the weakest the conference has ever been. Getting close to a one bid league.

AAC's tourney performance is trying to match its bowl game performance.

Oral Roberts, North Texas, Abilene Christian, Ohio- meanwhile, total obscurity for Tulane at 26 years & counting since our last bid. Anyone can do it in basketball, and all of these upsets reveal the hypocrisy of the committee on the number of at large bids going to conferences that are P5 in football.

Abilene Christian...what a performance...hustle from baseline to beseline...switiching man to man defense, pressure the ball played to perfection, in your face D.... move/pass the ball quickly on O.....stretch their slower D, with your passing and movement...sometimes I thought I was watching a Pete Carill Princeton team on offense.....the last play, could have been a called foul or a no call, I 've seen it both ways...that said, U are the Univeristy of Texas @ Austin, with a 65 million dollar basketball arena being built...how do U allow this to happen...but my bracket is a winner, since UT has been eliminated...looking forward to fun times at the course today !!!!

So does Oral Robert’s and those other teams listed have better facilities then us ? Glad to see houston scrap out the win vs Rutgers.

It has been mazing watching these “name brand” P5 teams get crushed. Clearly terrible seeding and media bias. Yes we know basketball and football are different. However a little discussed part of football rankings are how highly rated the recruiting classes are (this has been confirmed, but is rarely mentioned). Oral Robert’s and these other underdogs are showing why that is an absolute trash metric and also why the college football playoff is a joke.

Jim nantz just spoke about Caleb Daniels in the nova north texas game and how coach dunleavy called jay wright. He told Jay Wright that Caleb “was his kind of kid” or something to that extent. Wow thanks dunleavy for helping to push our most talented player out the door and making coach hunters job even harder.

Daniels was here ONLY because of Dunleavy and his NBA experience . He was all in on Dunleavy and had absolutely no interest in staying UNDER ANY NEW COACH considering Dunleavy greased the hinges on the door Daniels could pull open easily himself .

watching this years tournament..I have the answer for Tulane to become a NCAA team each year...it's all in the name...Oral Roberts, ACU Loyola Chicago..all these have religious ties...I suggest Tulane have a name change to: The Tulane All Faiths Univeristy of Louisiana...cover'em all... Elite 8's and Final Fours are in our future

Hopefully, Houston will continue their NCAA run and get more notoriety for the AAC. Many times this year, I heard national announcers refer to the AAC as the best defensive conference in the NCAA.

And Dannen gave Dunleavy that fat contract that we had to payout. All this is on Dannen.

An absolute blowout thus far. This Final Four version of UH is well on its way to being remembered as Phi Crappa Jama.
