We had our first two 1-seeds of this year's Championship Week go down, with Big South 1-seed Radford falling to 4-seed Hampton in the semis, but that one wasn't as shocking as MVC top seed Northern Iowa falling to the 8-seed Drake Bulldogs in the quarterfinals. And then the 2- and 3-seeds in the MVC lost too. Arch Madness, indeed! In Drake's honor, today's song is the rollicking, fun-loving Beatles' classic "Hey Bulldog."
The first two automatic bids to the 2020 NCAA Tournament are up for grabs today! Get ready for some excitement.
Here is what happened in yesterday's Championship Week action and what we have to look forward to today:
The first two automatic bids to the 2020 NCAA Tournament are up for grabs today! Get ready for some excitement.
Here is what happened in yesterday's Championship Week action and what we have to look forward to today:
- In the Big South semifinals, top seed Radford was upset by 5-seed Hampton, 86-78, and 2-seed Winthrop beat 3-seed Gardner-Webb, 78-66. When they meet in Sunday's championship game, the Pirates will be going for their 7th trip to the Big Dance and first since 2016, while the Eagles will be playing for their 12th trip and first since 2017.
- In the Mountain West semis, top seed San Diego State took care of 5-seed Boise State, 81-68, much to the delight of bubble teams around the country. 2-seed Utah State ended 11-seed Wyoming's little run with an 89-82 win. The Aztecs and Aggies will play this evening for the first automatic berth in this year's Big Dance. The Aztecs are a likely 1-seed in the NCAA Tournament, and they'll be playing in their 13th NCAA Tournament and first since 2018, while the Aggies are firmly on the bubble and will be playing for their 22nd NCAA Tournament appearance and second in a row.
- In the semis of the OVC, 1-seed Belmont downed 4-seed Eastern Kentucky, 60-50, while 2-seed Murray State beat 3-seed Austin Peay, 73-61, to set up a Belmont-Murray State title game for the third year in a row. When they play for the title tonight, the Bruins will be going for their 9th NCAA Tournament appearance and 2nd in a row, while the are playing for their 18th appearance and 3rd in a row.
- It was an absolute slaughter in the Missouri Valley quarterfinals, as the top three seeds went down. As discussed above, 8-seed Drake pummeled 1-seed Northern Iowa, 77-56, which likely relegates the Panthers to the NIT. As if that wasn't enough excitement, 2-seed Loyola (IL) fell in overtime to 7-seed Valparaiso, 74-73, and then 6-seed Missouri State stomped 3-seed Indiana State, 78-51. In a battle of Downstate supremacy, 4-seed Bradley beat 5-seed Southern Illinois, 64-59, leaving the Braves as the best remaining seed. The semis are today.
- In the second round of the WCC tournament, 5-seed San Francisco beat up on 8-seed Loyola Marymount, 82-53. Somewhere Bill Russell is smiling. 6-seed Pepperdine downed 7-seed Santa Clara, 84-73. Somewhere Steve Nash is not smiling. The third round, which is the de facto quarterfinals, is tonight.
- In the first round of the SoCon, 7-seed Wofford and 9-seed VMI advanced to today's quarterfinals.
- 4 more conference tournaments start today -- the America East, Colonial Athletic Association, Summit League, and Sun Belt -- and 10 conference tournaments have a total of 22 games today, including 2 conferences with semifinals, 3 with quarterfinals, and 2 championship games. Starting with several games at Noon ET until the end of the last WCC third round game (which tips off around midnight ET), we'll have about 14 hours of conference tournament action today. God, I love this shit.

Because I am unhealthily obsessed with college basketball in March -- to the detriment of my marriage, children, friendships, work, sleep schedule, sanity, wallet, water aerobics league, and loyalty to Set -- I have not only listed out every game and my predictions, but the date, time, and TV station(s) on which the game will appear, even if it's just local, regional, or online, to the extent that information is available. Some conference tournament websites are better than others. I want this to be as comprehensive as possible, so that you can always come here to figure out when any given team is playing. I love you so much, you guys. Don't you ever forget it.
Remaining Tournaments (all times are Eastern; to the extent there are teams that have clinched seeds in tournament fields that are not completely set, I will put those in)
