I didn't pick the SEC to go far, watched them a few times and thought the entire conference is overrated. I even have OSU beating Tennessee in the first round, I think Tennessee may be down one of their best players plus again, the SEC just doesn't seem as good as people claim they are. I feel like this year there will either be a bunch of upsets or hardly any.

Oral Roberts U. ahead of Ohio State at the 13-minutes left mark. If the Golden Eagles win, will Oral Roberts come back to life?

Looks like OSU is continuing their hot shooting from the conference tournament while Tennessee is laying another late-season dud.

Unbelievable. The vaunted Big 10 is looking like a bunch of overrated schmucks so far.

#12 Oregon State up on #5 Tennessee 33-19 at the half. Good for them so far.

Hope the beavs keep it going in the second half. Pac-12 win, Southeastern Conference loss - doesn't get much better.

That Oral Roberts guard just did anything that he wanted to. I love it when you see these guards from small schools just abuse the blue chip back courts in the tournament. CJ at Lehigh and Steph at Davidson are obviously the best versions of that, but it seems to happen in some game every year.

Big Ten and SEC overrated, which is funny cause with how little non-conference play there was you wouldn't think they'd hype up on conference over others so much.

Oral Roberts did screw up all of my brackets though as I had OSU going to the Final Four in all of them, so screw it! I'm just rooting for all low seeds to win. Go Norfol St! Go E Washington! Go Grand Canyon! Give Oregon the easiest route to the Final Four ever!

Hat’s off to the Beavs! Took down Tennessee with relative ease. Hard to believe 39 years for the Beavs, that was Charlie Sitton, Conner, and A.C’s freshman years.......... no tourney during the Payton era?

The Beavs were in the tournament three times during Payton's career. They lost every time - I remember listening to the games when I was in High school.

Don’t you mean the Oregon St Ducks? :lol: Even when they win, people still don’t know who they are.

That "Oregon State Ducks" mention is absolutely why their fans hate us lol.

Pac-12 is 2-0 in the tourney. Bill Walton is crowing at Dave Pasch somewhere.

First Oral Roberts takes down Ohio State, and now Liberty is ahead of Oklahoma State at the half. Three OSU's play today, and the only survivor may be the one double-digit seed. Liberty vs. Oregon State in the next round would be hilarious.
