That was Hawaii and yes they did. UCI got something like a 12 seed the year before.

Let's not kid ourselves: by the numbers the conference is somewhat worse than previous years, and this UCD team is not as good as the one from a couple of years ago. Davis and Irvine were pretty much the only teams that didn't have anything particularly wrong with them, but we're not a good team from a national perspective and a play-in game is very fair.

We were going to face a juggernaut anyway, I say better to build momentum with an even matchup first and rake in money for the conference before that.

Same disappointment happened to me 2 years ago when I was watching hoping for an at-large.

UCI, which had about our RPI (and with two losses against us) had a 12-seed that year IIRC -- had we won the tournament (beating UCI again in the process) I would guess 10-12 if the Committee makes sensible decisions.

More well-rounded. By the numbers the 14-15 team was better, but it was more of a glass cannon. This team doesn't have to live or die by a single stat (3-pt %).

WE WANT ZAGA

WE DID IT WE DID IT WE DID IT

Use Sling TV or Playstation Vue's 7-day trial

24-16 at the half!!

Good defense, meh shooting by the Ags

Start time might be a little late, or stream-only at first. The game in the time slot before on ESPN2 started at 6:40, running slightly behind schedule

and @ anybody: You can stream it using Playstation Vue's free trial. (It's an internet streaming service that competes with cable -- you don't need to own a Playstation to access its website.)

Go to https://www.playstation.com/en-us/network/vue/channels/ and create an account, selecting the cheapest package that has ESPN2. It allows you to get your first week free before they start billing your credit card. From there you can either log in to their site to see channels or go to the ESPN website and log in with your Playstation password.

Re: the NCAA tournament, if you keep your subscription and pay I think $40 for March, you can get all 4 channels March Madness is on: CBS, TBS, TNT, and TRU. (CBS might be market dependent; check first.)

If you don't care about having every March Madness game you can go through a similar process on www.sling.com instead that gives you ESPN2, TBS, and TNT for $20 I think.

WE DID IT

Returning all of our starters and and getting one of the top HS centers next year really takes the sting out of it a little. Let's go win the WNIT.

Still though, I have 3 semifinals to watch today and this was supposed to be the easiest W. Might end up being a rough day...

Just rename us UCNIT already

campusattheaggiedotorg is the email address the student newspaper uses for campus news tips. You know more about the background and the announcer than any of us, so it might be better for you to send the email. I don't think my friend at the Aggie still works there, so I can't be much further help.

I see the paper going two ways with this. They might want to call him out and get engaged, or alternately might feel that if nobody from Davis heard the comments in the first place then it doesn't affect them and won't be appreciated by the cheerleaders to dwell on it. Can't hurt to at least notify them though.

Today it was announced that SDSU's President will be stepping down for a different job. I know the odds are slim, but I really hope we get Hexter as a replacement.

As much as anybody can predict next season, POY may be Chima's to lose next year if he continues this level of performance. As it was this year until the UCI game.

Do we get to go to the NIT if Irvine takes the NCAA bid? I was under the impression from Wikipedia that only the conference champion is eligible for the auto-bid, and it's lost of the champion gets the NCAA bid. Did the rules change?

UCD will play at noon on Friday against the lowest remaining seed on ESPN3.

Nice job Ags! It's been really fun following WBB this season and I can't wait to see them take names in the postseason!

True, true, I'm just venting. The thing I hate the most to see is other teams doing spectacular unguardable heroics, whether its our fault or luck or their skill or whatever.
