\n<\/em>Middle Tennessee went 0-for-5 from the FREE THROW LINE in the final minute of play and still had a chance to tie in the closing seconds, except that their point guard decided that driving to the rim, down by 3 with 3 seconds left, was the best play at the time.\u00a0 Who needs a 3-pointer, down by 3?\u00a0 Anyway, the 25-win Blue Raider team is now out, and this tournament is wide open.\u00a0 All 20 people had Mid Tenn here, so the winners are the 10 people that didn’t have them winning this tournament (Alexi, Gersh, J, KA, Lohse, Lynch, Mac, RDoc, Stri, Waters).<\/p>\n
\n<\/em>Might as well go the whole nine yards if there’s gonna be Madness.\u00a0 #2 AR-Little Rock also got beat by a Hilltopper team that is playing with house money, at this point.\u00a0 6 people had the nice upset pick here (Alexi, Gross, Lohse, Lynch, RSmith, Teddy).\u00a0 RSmith and Teddy have the ‘Toppers going to the finals.\u00a0 Lynch lost his champion here.<\/p>\n
\n<\/em>The Mean Green come from behind to nip the Ragin’ Cajuns.\u00a0 A decent number of people had this mild upset, but the ramifications go further.\u00a0 Lohse has N. Texas in the finals, so that’s still alive for him.\u00a0 Gersh had ULL winning this whole tournament, so he, like a lot of people on this night, lost his Sun Belt champion.<\/p>\n
\n<\/em>The Pioneers are now, not only the best remaining seed, but they have to be considered the clear favorites to win this tournament, as they survive the chaos that was the quarterfinals.\u00a0 Gersh and RSmith missed the upset pick here.\u00a0 8 people keep alive their champion pick with Denver (Alexi, J, KA, Lohse, Lynch, RDoc, Stri, Waters).\u00a0 In fact, Denver is the only remaining team that anyone <\/em>picked to win this tournament.<\/p>\n
