    3) 1st team all conference for Justin Bibbins
    4) COY for Coach K. Utes were picked 7th in the preseason poll. UW was picked 10th. ASU was picked 6th. Is any other coach in the running?
    5) Revenge. We lost by a combined 58 points to UCLA, USC, and CU this season.
    Well, if you are in the east there is a big difference...I think the 3/6 game tips at midnight eastern!

    Agree though, should be a fun stretch...please please please take care of business at WSU.

    I know the tournament committee doesn't really look at last 10 anymore, but if the Utes could somehow go into Vegas having won 7 in a row, that'd be something, certainly not nothing.

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

    I follow a guy on Twitter, Jerry Palm, who insists that the NCAA basketball selection committee is the only group of humans ever assembled that can operate completely free of any bias. "They don't even know what conference a team belongs to." "The name on the jersey might as well be invisible." That kind of crap. I don't really know why I'm still following this guy.

    Anyway, the committee may not officially look at last 10 anymore, but it's there. They can't unknow what they know.
