3/11 recap

ACC finals:
Duke 75, Notre Dame 69 - god I hate Duke

Big East finals:
Villanova 74, Creighton 60

Big 12 finals:
Iowa St 80, West Virginia 74 - ISU's seed is going to be tricky.  5 or 6?  WVU is a 4

B1G semis:
Michigan 84, Minnesota 77 - Michigan's fixed that away-from-home problem well this week
Wisconsin 76, Northwestern 48 - Wisky's resume still isn't that great but they're moving up by brute force now

SEC semis:
Kentucky 79, Alabama 74
Arkansas 76, Vanderbilt 62 - I'm not 100% convinced Vandy is home free, but I think so

Pac-12 finals:
Arizona 83, Oregon 80 - are we really pushing Arizona all the way up to the 1 line?  If you're going to win a mid-major conference like Arizona did, at least acquire the pile of non-con wins like Gonzaga did to get to the 1 line, right?

AAC semis:
SMU 70, Central Florida 59
Cincinnati 81, UConn 71 - a good job by both SMU and Cincy to keep a clean sheet throughout the year here

A-10 semis:
Rhode Island 84, Davidson 60 - URI will teeter on the brink, right to the death
VCU 87, Richmond 77 (OT)

MWC finals:
Nevada 79, Colorado St 71 - well that's one at-large question I'm glad was taken off the board

Sun Belt semis:
Texas St 83, Texas-Arlington 62 - sigh
Troy 74, Georgia St 63 - even more sigh.  Sun Belt to the 16 line?

Ivy semis:
Princeton 72, Penn 64 (OT) - that was nearly one of the all-time backfires in conference history
Yale 73, Harvard 71

CUSA finals:
Middle Tennessee 83, Marshall 72

MAC finals:
Kent St 70, Akron 65

AEast finals:
Vermont 56, Albany 53
