Give yourself a pat on the back if you predicted this title tilt - Braves vs Panthers for an NCAA bid.

Braves favored by 3 points.

Braves have been the hotter team but UNI has AJ Green who can get hot and take over a game. They also have a coach that has been there before. Who should we root for if we just want to see the MVC do well and win credits?

At face value, sending a .500 MVC team to the tourney isn't a great look and the Panthers would probably get a 15/16 seed. While it's impossible to predict, Braves would probably get a better draw and have a better chance of advancing based on that.

They won the games, that's how it works. A great deal for either school.

I know it would be embarrassing for the MVC that one of their teams had to do this but UNI winning might send them to Dayton for a PIG and a win there would result in an extra unit. So there's that...

The line is Bradley favored by 2. Expecting a physical game with a veteran ref crew letting players play.

Do the play in teams still get a full ncaa unit? I thought they changed that.

As far as I know they do If there was any change to that I am unaware of it.

Well that wouldn’t be the worst thing. Embarrassing look to be a 16 and have to play SE somewhere or other college, but it would be an extra game all alone on national cable TV.

Won’t matter though because BU is going dancing.
