March 8, 200521 yr 3 bids to be handed out tonight: Horizon League-Detroit vs. UW-Milwaukee Sun Belt-Louisiana-Lafayette vs. Denver Mid Continent Conference-Oakland vs. Oral Roberts the favorites in all 3 of those matchup are real nice teams, especially UW-Milwaukee, who I could see winning a game in the big dance in one of those traditional 1st round upsets.
March 9, 200521 yr This Oakland-Oral Roberts game has been awesome. Close game all the way through. Oakland just hit a crazy 3 with 1.3 left to go up 61-60. Oakland's record is like 11-18 and they are the 7 seed in the tournament. And they put their names on the bottom of their jerseys which is sweet.
March 9, 200521 yr Oakland wins it. Now 12-18 and they get an NCAA berth. Plus this game was practically on the Oral Roberts campus so it was essentially a home game for them. Awesome story.
March 9, 200521 yr Author That ORU/Oakland game was sick. Props to Oakland, amazing job by them to win that tournament, especially beating Oral Roberts (a real good team) in essentially a road game for the title.
March 9, 200521 yr Author Btw, coming into the game: The #7 seed Oakland was 11-18 of course, and #1 seed Oral Roberts, at home in the game, was 26-5. Amazing.....

Louisiana Lafayette Rajun Cajuns what a freakin show they just put on..... wow are they athletic 706027[/snapback] I didn't see that game, but I remember them winning that tourney a couple years ago, and I did see that and even then was impressed by their athletic skills.
March 9, 200521 yr Author Great game on ESPN right now Milwaukee and Detroit tied at 58 with under a minute to go.
March 9, 200521 yr Author Milwaukee hits the 2nd FT, holds off the last second rush upcourt to win it 59-58. What a game.
