Less than a week!

We are now in the midst of one of the great weeks in college basketball. Conference Tournament week. By the end of this week we all will have a good idea of who will be the top teams come tournament time. Ohio State has solidified themselves as the top team in the country and the rest of the polls look the same except Notre Dame moved up while BYU and Duke fell. Others team making a big move are Syracuse #11 and North Carolina #6. That's a look at the polls for this week. Before my Big East Tourney Preview for tomorrow. I would like to play Bracketologist for a minute and give you all my top 8 teams. These are my 1 and 2 seeds for the tournament. My 1 seeds are Ohio State, Kansas, Pittsburgh, and North Carolina. My 2 seeds are Duke, BYU, Notre Dame, and Texas. If any of these teams lose I will update this bit. Now onto the Big East Tourney. The greatest conference tournament around. A 5 day 16 team tournament in Madison Square Garden how does it get any better. Tomorrow we see four games starting off with UCONN and Depaul. UCONN will win but Depaul will play better. At 2pm we will see two New Jersey teams face off as Seton Hall plays Rutgers. Look for Jeremy Hazell to put up big numbers in a Hall win. In primetime we start off with struggling Villanova taking on South Florida. Nova will win in a close game. The final game of the night showcases Marshon Brooks Big East leading scorer (24.8ppg) and the Providence Friars facing off with the Marquette Golden Eagles. I see this as a must win for the the Eagles to solidify a big dance berth. I think Brooks will shine in the spotlight and take over. That's a look at tomorrows action. Four tickets being punched tonight for the tourney I got Old Dominion over VCU, Iona over St. Peters, Charleston over Wofford, and Gonzaga over St. Mary's. Now for the final bit tonight fan mail. Keith asks what I think of how the NBA deals with technicals. Keith, I think their policy is reasonable but there are two changes that need to be made. If you are only gonna give 16 until a suspension you need to tell the refs to chill with the T's. Dwight Howard who is missing action tonight has gotten numerous T's for reacting to his own actions not towards a ref. Refs in the NBA think they are more important than the players. Come on Refs the only way you guys get on Sportscenter is for being complete idiots. Get the right refs at the good games. The other rule thats need to be changed is that when you are suspended you can't not even show up at the arena. Come on Stern if your gonna suspend the guy make him dress up nice, sit there by the coach, and be part of the team even if he can't play. Enough on that. Keep sending your questions and Reading. I'm Out!
