Line up for Tuesday (times are TBA):
#8 Massachusetts (9-7) vs. #9 Duquense (7-9)
#5 St. Joseph's (9-7)vs. #12 Charlotte (5-11)
#7 La Salle (9-7) vs. #10 Richmond (7-9)
#6 Dayton (9-7) vs. #11 George Washington (5-11)
Winners advance to AC Friday and play in the following games:
#1 Temple (13-3) vs. #8/#9 Game winner 12 pm
#4 St. Bonaventure (10-6) vs. #5/#12 Game winner 2:30 pm
#2 St. Louis (12-4) vs. #7/#10 Game winner 6:30 pm
#3 Xavier (10-6) vs. #6/#11 Game winner 9 pm
Winners of these games play Saturday as follows:
#1/#8/#9 Game winner vs. #4/#5/#12 Game winner 1 pm
#2/#7/#10 Game winner vs. #3/#6/#11 Game winner 3:30 pm
Sunday Final:
Well that's pretty obvious, the 2 winners of the above games 1 pm
Should be a fairly wide open tournament, although it is pretty clear that the #1 and #2 seeds in Temple and St. Louis are solid favorites. Other teams like Xavier (if they can get their act together), Dayton, Bona, St. Joe's all have a shot to run the table IMO, and for some reason I want to give UMass a shot too. Should be fun.

Tokelau is a tiny island in the middle of nowhere in the Pacific. It is safe to say I am not from there...

I suspect that line (if 9) to drop a point or so. Neither team is playing its best basketball but if this is another low scoring affair, 9 should be solid...

If they defend the 3 better, you are probably right

#8 Massachusetts vs. #9 Duquense +6.5 149
#5 St. Joseph's vs. #12 Charlotte +9.5 134
#7 La Salle vs. #10 Richmond +7 138
#6 Dayton vs. #11 George Washington +9 135
Pretty close to my guesses of
Massachusetts -5 153
St. Josephs -9 134
La Salle -6.5 143.5
Dayton -9 134
Line have changed some...especially the totals
Surprised La Salle total has now gone to 135. I realize they aren't churning it up like they were, but 135 is a shade low...especially when this is not a 4 games 4 days tournament...teams will have a couple days rest between Friday and now if they are to win
