I love following the other mid-major leagues in March, so much amazing basketball and REAL drama. These tourneys are way more enchanting than the BCS conferences where the top half really don't need to do anything. That being said, a few 1 seeds have gone down already!
The list: -Coastal Carolina -Murray State -George Mason -Missouri State (may get an at-large)
I think there were more too.... being an OU fan, how does this make you feel?

To me it means that as long as OU wins the Summit Tournament that we have a good chance at a higher seed in the tournament. With the number one seeds going down and lower seeds winning their conference tournaments it pushes them to lower seeds in the NCAA tournament.

I know it helps us with potential seeding, but it gives me a bit of a scare showing the chaotic nature of these tournaments.
Also I've been watching the "Arch Madness" MVC championship and I'm rooting for Missouri State solely because they're a 1 seed team named the Bears. Call me superstitious

I agree with Kingsley. Anything to help us stay on the 13 line or possibly have an outside shot at a 12 line. It doesn't scare me because the Summit League is usually chalk. I know it could go differently any year, but it'd be like a 95% free throw shooter missing a free throw. Oakland is the 95% free throw shooter.
I went to an Indiana State game a few weeks ago to see them versus Morehead State and Kenneth Faried. It was really fun, and their fans were really great (they gave Ken a standing ovation when he passed the all-time rebounding mark in NCAA history). So I'm watching too and hoping they pull it out.

There's another 1 seed losing. Well played game though Indiana State.

I believe Missouri st, and George Mason will get Auto-bids. George Mason for sure, they were ranked 25th.
