Pat Connaughton saved Notre Dame’s bacon with that amazing block. This game seconds after Zach Auguste was called for a double dribble. The game has moved to overtime thanks to Connaughton’s heroics. One of the plays of the tournament.

That’s because there is a potential battle of behemoths looming in the Elite 8 between the Wisconsin Badgers and Arizona Wildcats. All season long the Badgers have eviscerated opponents with the […]

The South Region of the NCAA Tournament bracket is one that has drawn the most scoffs. Duke was comfortably a number 1 seed, even though they were not the ACC regular season or tournament champions. On top of that, they were placed in a region with the weakest 4 seed in Georgetown and a 5 […]

The East region of the NCAA tournament is home to the most unlikely number 1 seed, the Villanova Wildcats. Villanova wasn’t thought of to be one of the elite teams at the beginning of the year. Nova wasn’t even in the preseason top 10. Once the season kicked off though, the Wildcats asserted dominance over […]

Action in the Midwest Region begins tonight with the 16 seed play-in game between Hampton and Manhattan. The winner of that game has the unenviable task of being Kentucky’s only guaranteed victim of March. If Kentucky was the 1 seed that was upset by the 16 seed, it would be the greatest upset in the […]

The game itself doesn’t really deserve words but there was a highlight. While celebrating after Georgia Southern missed a potential game winner, Georgia State coach Ron Hunter was injured during the celebration. […]

Instead of posting these separately, here are a pair of dramatic finishes from this great night of basketball. We start in Hartford, Connecticut. The UConn Huskies were tied with Cincinnati in the AAC quarterfinals. Everyone who knows anything about college basketball knew that Ryan Boatright would take UConn’s final shot. And take it he did: […]

In a game that featured LaSalle coach John Giannini yelling at the officials that they were protecting the number 1 seed and that his team would still win away, the Davidson Wildcats finished on a 10-0 to survive and advance in the A-10 tournament. While LaSalle didn’t get any help from the stripes, Davidson finished […]

Conference tournament action has hit the semifinals for most of the major conferences. There are a few stragglers like the Big Ten and SEC that end on Sunday, but for the most part we have the juicy matchups set. Today was a day of really bad losses by teams trying to make a tournament bid. […]

Ole Miss was upset in the SEC tournament. This game was on the SEC Network so you might not have seen it. Don’t fear, we here at the Student Section have your back. Things started off pretty exciting. With USC up by two with 2:12 remaining, Stefan Moody of Ole Miss drilled a three for […]
