Dayton 70 Saint Louis 69

[Rosthol]

That was a tough one to take.

18 turnovers and 23 fouls are unacceptable.

Should have been a technical foul on the Dayton bench for coming on the floor after the tip-in.

I just don’t have a good feeling they get in.

Hope I am wrong.

On the bright side they started strong.

They will get in unless totally slighted by the committee, which is possible.

If they don't clean up their act it won't matter much other than the invite itself.

Think Notre Dame and Texas in college football.

Possible but not probable.

There's also a huge difference between playing teams in your conference vs someone without any common opponents.

The loss did not hurt them!

[cardzilla]

didnt hurt at all. they were a 9 to me before the loss. i thought maybe 10 (and bracketology'd that), so was surprised not touched. maybe bc close game + dayton is good.

in comparison, miami oh lost to umass, and that torpedo'd their seed

[Rosthol]

Didn’t hurt.
