Looks like a 3 man race in the Summit...NDSU, SDSU and Oakland.

Yeah checkout pitt's lineup so far http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/team/schedule/_/id/221/pittsburgh-panthers

Oakland gave them their best game, took them to OT, outside #4 Michigan.

That's going to hurt Pitt when they play big name teams. Oakland is always tough but now the Dakota's are up there with them. Too bad we can't play each other in the dance it would be like old times. Is this NDSU team as good as the Woodside team? Seems like you guys did good in OOC games so far.

It's drastically different. It is a head and shoulders more athletic team. The # of blocks and dunks is off the chart by comparison. The team is also about 5-6" taller on avg. We pretty much run one or two guys that are around 6'3" and the rest are 6'7"-6'9". Some of our bench players bring the average down, but I suspect they will play less as the games get more serious.

Bold are typical starters with felt and kading being potential starters but not typically.

Some optimism over on the Ivies, but that'll change later when we play much tougher opponents... xchinscratchx

Harvards mens team should have come with their womens team. Harvard @ NDSU for MBB would be neat.

UND now plummeting in the rankings at #317 (second to last in the BSC) only SUU is worse at #338. UND needs some wins. Looks like our neighbors to the south has a lot of success so far. NDSU is at #56. Saul has that team on high. If UND keeps getting further behind then recruiting may become tougher unless Brian Jones recruits in a different region than Saul Phillips.

Lehigh is rising in the ranks. Patriot League will come down to Bucknell and Lehigh battling it out; however, this is one rare year that the runner-up could make an at large bid....where have I heard that before?

[Twentysix]

Has the patriot ever had an atlarge before?

No. Last year some thought Bucknell should have received serious consideration, but they ended up in the NIT and pulled off a nice 'upset' out in Arizona. Their 'big guy' Muscala is a force and has good support. The games between Lehigh and Bucknell last year were real wars. Same expected this year.

Interesting, I don't believe the Summit/midcon has ever had an at-large either. There has been speculation a few times that if the right team lost in the championship game of the tournament they could get an atlarge. Usually that team has won the championship anyway. I have no idea if the committee would have considered these teams, this is just from fans perspectives.
