It's
that time of year when thoughts of spring turn to college basketball.
We have conference tournaments this week leading up to Selection Sunday
on March 14. Following next Sunday the real Madness Starts with the
play-in game on Wednesday and first round games on Thursday and Friday
and the Sweet Sixteen set on Saturday and Sunday.
The Mountain West Conference
. . . tournament is this weekend. I predict the top 4 seeds, 1. NM, 2.
BYU, 3. UNLV and 4. San Diego will advance to the semi-finals, with NM
and UNLV advancing to the title game with NM winning the tournament
conference championship to go along with their regular season title.
BYU has trouble with UNLV at the Thomas and Mack, but they are more
likely to slip by them in a semi-final than a final. It would be great
to see a NM/BYU title game.
New Mexico is contending for a 3
seed, BYU a 4 seed. More likely than not NM will get a 4 seed and BYU a
6 seed in the NCAA tournament. Don't be surprised to see SDSU and UNLV
to go to the Big Dance as double digit seeds.
Get your brackets
ready, the best time of year in sports, the NCAA basketball tournament
is on our doorsteps. The "One and Done" is what makes it exciting, with
upsets, Cinderella stories and the excitement. Let these Games begin .
. . NOW!
