Tuesday Viewing Guide


I keep debating structure for the blog. Last night, I had so much fun doing a breakdown of the bubble – then I woke up this morning and realized that should have probably been in my bracketology blog. With the changes in service that I had on my website provider, I made the realization that instead of loading pages for my bracketology and handicapping pages and constantly uploading them, I could simply use WordPress to create a new blog – easier to update, always available, etc. Just one problem – I came up with the idea last weekend which doesn’t leave a lot of time for making pretty or organizing what content goes where.

Sleep deprived lunatic with multiple blogs at his fingertips – what can go wrong with that.

Anyways, lets look at today’s Lunatic viewing guide. If you are lucky enough to watch TV during the afternoon, the ACC has your sole and undivided attention. The one that will have everyone’s attention is at 4:30 pm EST as Duke starts their last charge for the dance against Boston College. At 11-11, the Blue Devils probably have to at least win 3 games in Greensboro to make a last ditch effort. As I said before, I can’t see a 13-12 team making the tournament, even if they have the name Duke across their jerseys.

There are other small conference tournaments starting this late afternoon and evening, but everyone’s attention really should be on the finals – as 5 teams will punch their ticket to the dance. The premier game of the day is in Las Vegas in the West Coast Conference at 9 pm EST. In the middle of the night for us on the East Coast, BYU survived a scare from Pepperdine in overtime, creating the matchup everyone wanted to see from the WCC. The #1 Gonzaga Bulldogs will try to go into the tournament undefeated, with the BYU Cougars trying to pull the major upset.

But there are 4 other championships to be played – hope they are as good as Monday night.

  • Colonial (7 pm EST) – #6 Drexel (11-7) vs #8 Elon (10-8)
  • Northeast (7 pm EST) – #2 Bryant (15-5) vs #4 Mount St Mary’s (11-10)
  • Horizon (7 pm EST) – #1 Cleveland State (18-7) vs #3 Oakland (12-17)
  • Summit (9 pm EST) – #3 North Dakota State (15-11) vs #4 Oral Roberts (15-10)

Enjoy the conference tournament games tonight – tomorrow begins some of the bubble activity as first round games of some of the major conferences begin.
