I think this is the last time you'll see two Conference USA teams make the NCAA Tourney for a while.

Clemson is on a roll now, and will next play WVU, that has been sitting around watching TV.

Not making excuses for UAB, but didn't their main player get hurt early in the game?

It better have been at 19:59 left in the 1st to use that excuse.

Personally, I wish Alabama would play UAB in BB. I think it would be great for BB in the state and generate a lot of excitement.

We don't play them for the same reasons Ole Miss and Miss St doesn't play Southern Miss, it's all about what it takes to get in school.

UAB's blowout loss will linger

Quote
Virginia Tech, Colorado and Alabama must have been cussing up a storm Tuesday night watching UAB. "We got passed over for this?"

UAB's embarrassing 70-52 loss to Clemson, ending a memorable year in which the Blazers overachieved, will linger for a while for many reasons.

Aaron Johnson's pro future overseas took a serious blow when he broke his right tibia. What a cruel way to end the college career of a special player.

UAB's psyche, already fragile on big stages, took another hit. The Blazers became the nation's poster-child for what's wrong with the NCAA Tournament selection process.

UAB can't walk-the-walk or talk-the-talk.  Break a leg.  :D
