Louisiana 88 - Denver 69



It's nice when your college team makes it to the NCAA Tournament. It's especially nice when your team has an RPI Ranking of 43, a solid win over Southern Illinois and, and a conference championship to go along with an NCAA birth! It could be worse, we could be going to the NIT like some teams I won't name here.

All of you Ragin Cajun fans out there can stand up proud. We are in the Tournament and I'm hoping for a first-round upset!

We should know this Sunday who we're beating in the first round.

As of right now, ESPN projects we're being paired up with Gonzaga, a notoriously great Tourney team. We're projected to get a 13 seed! A 13 seed for a team with an RPI of 43! We're getting the shaft, just look at the schedule! We should be able to play a 7 or 8 seed, not a 4! Now I'm not so sure we're getting into the second round.

OK, it's final: we're playing Louisville (the other UL), they're a 4 and we're a 13. I still think we're getting the shaft at 13, AND by playing a 4 seed that could have been a 2 seed.
