The Golden Eagles instead will be a No. 2 seed in the 32-team National Invitation Tournament (NIT).

Theo Pinson of the Tar Heels told reporters after Saturday's game that losing to the Cavaliers, the top-ranked team in the country, is something they can build on heading into the NCAA Tournament.

"We look at the entire body of work", Rasmussen said. "But we'll learn from this and move on". They beat Wisconsin in 2001 as a No. 11 seed and shocked Baylor 57-56 in 2015 as a No. 14 seed. But all of them came to teams in the NCAA Tournament picture.

Barry Brown is expected to be ready to go Friday, as well.

The math that Vitale didn't mention: Oklahoma State's RPI was more than 20 spots worse than any team to ever receive an at-large bid.

2 - Tom Izzo and the Spartans will likely have to play Duke again: While having the homecourt advantage in Detroit is huge, the thought of facing Duke in the Sweet 16 is beyond ominous for the Spartans.

The Bisons, under fifth-year coach Casey Alexander, are making their NCAA tournament debut.

Do you know where Lipscomb is?

But if Division I's average adjusted tempo is a little more than 68 possessions per game, per KenPom.com, there is a decided outlier: With 59.2 possessions per game, Virginia is the slowest team in college basketball.

Naw, let's keep this committee around because I have a feeling they're re-writing a lot of Notre Dame wrongs.

The Tigers (25-7) were projected as high as a two seed in the NCAA Tournament, but fell in as a four seed after its blowout loss to Alabama in St. Louis. In can be done as UCLA has had four 3+ wins streaks this season, but that was not in the tournament. The Longhorns are also 0-4 ATS in their last four versus the Mountain West and the under is 4-1-1 in their last six non-conference games. "This is a testament to our hard work and ability to buy in as a team". Purdue and Villanova could meet in the East Region final months after it was expected they would play in the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament. "But we did get nine in, which is a very good number". "They are a really special group".

Sixth-seeded Miami (22-9) meets 11-seed Loyola-Chicago (28-5) in Dallas on Thursday, while No. 7 seed Nevada (27-7) meets No. 10 seed Texas (19-14) on Friday in Nashville. Sometimes that happens, like SC reaching the Final Four as a No. 7 seed last season, but more than often, it doesn't. The Wildcats are the 12th seed in the South and will take on five-seed Kentucky on Thursday in Boise, Idaho. The Cavaliers will play the University of Maryland-Baltimore County in the first round Friday in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Friars are playing some of their best basketball of the season, getting wins over Creighton and Xavier in the Big East Tournament.

Ryan Odom, 43, said he talked with his father early Sunday morning. "It was a cool father-son moment".
