Hey everyone this game is going to be on ESPN2 in a couple minutes once the current game ends. They could get an instant berth the NCAA tournament!

Very exciting!

Go Vikings(never rooted for them before ;D).

Go PSU a good buddy of my goes there he is pretty stoked. On a side note ive heard the Pac-10 gutter team might be looking at PSU's current coach as a possible hire.

They're doing pretty good right now and not to take anything away from them, but I don't see the Vikings doing much in the NCAA tournament. Dominguez will get owned by any division 1 team.

Fixed.

Oregon's chances are improving ever so slightly (Mount St. Mary's won their conference tourney, Villanova beat Syracuse), but there have been setbacks (KSU upset by Iowa State, San Diego winning the WCC). A lot of people believe that if Oregon beats WSU tomorrow they're a lock. I think they should be in regardless. I fear, however, that Arizona's strength of schedule hypnotizes the committee into getting them in the tournament over us, which would be terrible.

Portland State wins by 16 and is going to the NCAA tournament! Deonte Huff can really jump high.

At least that makes up for how Oregon State is doing. They're only good for football and baseball now-a-days.

Nelsonfan, KSU hasn't lost in their tourney yet I don't think. They don't have to play until Fri.

Even for how pathetic OSU basketball is, there are alot of schools out there that would be happy with the type of success they have had in football and baseball. It softens the steamy pile of a b-ball program a bit for this OSU fan.

I don't really follow PState sports, but I'm glad atleast ONE team from the state is going to make it...hopefully the ducks will pull it together though

Yea I go to psu and I'm SOOOO ecstatic! Dominguez is just a junior and although hoff is a sr we have thomas (guy with a mowhawk in case ur wondering) and coston (curly haired 6'10 3 pt shooter) that are both sophs so I'm excited for this year and next. Also good for Bone if he gets a headcoach offer at a pac 10 school but I'll be PIST if he leaves!

Dominguez was a stud dating back to HS. He averaged like 25 ppg for South Salem in his senior year. It's really a shame no Pac-10 school jumped on him and it was kinda surprising he transferred out of UP, but good for him nevertheless.

It was a pretty cool came. That Morrison guy is a beast.

sigh- dominguez stated on fsn after winning the state title at mac court he wanted to be a duck, yet no offer from ernie...he is a less dynamic. more controlled version of tp.
don't forget psu has phil nelson coming in next year, a 4* recruit to UW last year...lol as a sf he is nearly as tall as morrison.
