Tough, tough draw...Drexel and Old Dominion were considered pretty much even for one of the last at-large NCAA berths.

3/11/2007 8:08:00 PM

least number of wins for an NIT team means we got the most respect these last few games

Drexel shoulda been in the big dance. This will be rough.

When's gametime?

3/11/2007 8:08:03 PM

3/11/2007 8:08:37 PM

3/11/2007 8:10:18 PM

3/11/2007 8:10:35 PM

How did Miss. St. get a 1 seed at 18-13? Who'd they beat?

3/11/2007 8:11:23 PM

The Colonial, ECU's old conference before they joined C-USA.

The Colonial has VCU and Old Dominion who made the tourney, and also George Mason. So they had a Final Four team last year. Some others are UNC-Wilmington, James Madison, I think Towson out of Maryland...

Colonial Athletic Association

1)Va. Commonwealth - in NCAA
2)Old Dominion - in NCAA
3)Drexel
4)Hofstra - likely no postseason, but decent

3/11/2007 8:12:05 PM

CAA with VCU, Old Dom, etc.

They have beaten 'Cuse and Nova on the road. (not much road @Nova seeing as they play in Philly as well).

They're a last four out team.

3/11/2007 8:12:06 PM

the Colonial...and it's not awful. they finished 13-5 in conference and only finished 4th in reg season

^Creighton on the road as well

Mississippi St. had the top seed in the SEC west.

3/11/2007 8:12:57 PM

drexels from the colonial league - pfft - fuck their record

3/11/2007 8:13:39 PM

lol I had forgotten that Dean Smith was on the NIT committee this year

3/11/2007 8:14:14 PM

wow, tough TOUGH draw for us.

its gonna be a very interesting game but I think we will be ok


Clemson as a #1 seed, WOW. thats pretty dumb if you ask me, switch them with Cuse plz.
some interesting stuff there but Clemson as a 1...dumb dumb.

3/11/2007 8:14:25 PM

Drexel had 14 wins away from home, the most of any NCAA team. Besides the wins over Syracuse and Villanova, they also won at Creighton, the champ of the Missouri Valley Conference. But they got swept by Old Dominion, which probably made the difference when the Colonial was likely to get just 2 NCAA bids.

3/11/2007 8:16:27 PM

So we're on the road.

3/11/2007 8:17:10 PM

against who? i cant watch

3/11/2007 8:18:00 PM

first game on the road?

when do we get a home game? what retard didn't give us (the wolfpack nation who would sell out the RBC Center) a home game?

"Drexel has to be thinking "WHAT DID WE DO WRONG?" Snubbed from the NCAA and then are relegated to a 3 seed in the NIT and have to play a hot ACC team...OUCH "

Actually I bet they're licking their chops. I mean these teams are usually the ones that can only get quaility opponents to play them by playing at the other teams house. Now they get us, a historic program from a great conference, in their house. Have they ever had an ACC program play them on their home court? Of course sometimes it's all the player's mindset. Some of these mid-major teams welcome the challenge of playing a major conference program.
