Really hope we don't have to travel to Spokane. That would be horrible. Just don't understand how Spokane is in the east bracket.

who said Spokane is in the east, we can play in any bracket, and any 2nd and 3rd round sight can be used for any region

I took a facebook survey about dialect. After choosing expressions about lots of things in ordinary life, I was most aligned with New York City / Yonkers...........least like Spokane. So if anyone travels there...you have been warned that the locals will think you have a funny accent.

Not going to say where I am from - some of you already know. A renowned Iona Professor (Hugenin) from Brooklyn used to tell me, "You talk funny." My response - "You think I talk funny??"
You guys - all of you- have an accent. Not me.

Any predictions on the point spreads in the MAAC Tourny and Rd 1 of NCAA Tourney of Iona is a 14 seed?
I would say game 1...... Favored by 10, game 2....... Favored by 6, Championship...... Favored by 2...... Round 1...... Underdog by 15.

Favored by 2...... Round 1...... Underdog by 15. Impossible to predict at this time. Match up's, upsets, injuries, etc. make it difficult to speculate. I would believe Iona would be a favorite in each of the first two games, hard to say in the MAAC final if we are fortunate enough to make it. If we are a 14 seed, I would suggest the spread would be between +7 and +14.

Geez 05, I hate threads like this with so much basketball left to play. It invites bad karma.

This is peak bracketology time, I like the thread, but we can read all of this we want and the only way we are part of real bracketology is win 3 in Springfield.
That being said our winning streak has put us at a 14 seed now but although a month ago I would have never believed this, if we win 3 in Springfield I now think we are going to be a 13 seed and finish this year with an incredible run of 16 straight and we may be a 12 seed.

cjb, bad karma is that 10 of 11 teams won't make it so you have a high probability that this jinxed us, but then we would have never had the fun of dreaming of another bid and possible upset. is it a jinx that in the past 10 days all experts have us in and not canisius. i do think the sem's and finals will both be tough games though.

Currently lunardi has us the best 14 seed, and there is no way there isn't one conference upset so if we get in we can be a 13 seed, and that's where it comes down to match ups. Whomever the match up may be, should we make it, i think it comes down to playing defense, not getting killed on the boards and hitting 40 % of our threes, if we do that we can advance. 4 games to go and springfield, as usual thinking of dancing now consumes me and even worse thinking of winning an ncaa game keeps me looking forward through an awful winter I can't wait to get out of.
