Darn, was rooting for St. Louis.... most likely vcu going to win the A-10 again

Wow. What a game, though. Definitely worthy of Arch Baron Cup lore.

Major controversy as that idiot from Dayton ran onto the court with time on the clock but the refs didn’t call a tech

As I heard a fan sitting by me explain, SLU didn't throw the ball in so there was no 'violation.'

Has SLU thrown the ball into play, the refs would have had to call one. Apparently, a similar situation happened in a vcu/Bona game recently.

Dayton over St. Louis
A-110 steals a bid

Before the second round games, Dalen Cuff mentioned that there was some chance (not necessarily a good one) that the A10 could get 3 bids---vcu might get a bid if they made it to the A10 finals and lost to a #4 or #5 seed, as SLU was going to get an at-large barring a terrible collapse.

Then on CBSSN today, their bracketology person said that vcu would get an at-large bid ONLY if they lost to SLU in the championship game.

The 3 bid scenario is obviously dependent on how the other bubble teams end their season.

So if Dayton wins tomorrow, the A10 could get three teams in. Tough call for the committee because St. Louis despite hitting a wall recently definitely should be in. vcu also does but might get squeezed if we only get two teams in.

Some version of poetic justice, I guess, making up for the inadvertent whistle on that play where Dayton was robbed of an opportunity to get an uncontested layup.

But not a tough call for Mason fans as to who we'd be rooting for tomorrow!

Edit: And as consolation for Dayton losing a chance to be a National #1 seed in the Obi Toppin/Covid year!
