The Mississippi State Bulldogs secured one of the last spots in the dance. After finishing ninth in the SEC this season, out-of-conference victories over Marquette and TCU were enough to put MSU into the 68-team tourney.

SEC 7-1 - MizzouTigerz MU

- 3/17 20:31:13

I was wrong. - MizzouTigerz MU

- 3/17 20:54:44

Is that how we are doing it now? - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/17 20:42:24

Were they in the field of 64? Yes or no? 294 teams weren't - Macgrantt MU - 3/17 20:43:58

The tournament is a field of 68, not 64. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:46:00

They were announced in the tournament on selection Sunday - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/17 20:45:42

They were announced in the tournament's play in - Macgrantt MU - 3/17 20:47:52

What you call playin is actually called the first round - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/17 20:52:12

Nope. On my official CBS/NCAA bracket - haeffb MU - 3/18 05:49:14

They stopped doing that because nobody bought into - alwaysright MU - 3/17 22:12:21

it's not called a "play in", it's called the "first four" (nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:48:57

Seems they quit using the "play in" game term - KC rules MU - 3/17 20:53:51

7 You don't say. That would make the SEC 6-1, imagine that - Macgrantt MU - 3/17 21:01:18

Well you got me there. SEC had 8 in as the article stated - KC rules MU - 3/17 21:07:09

correct... it's called the "First Four"... as wu mentioned - zounami MU - 3/17 20:57:57

RE: Seems they quit using the "play in" game term - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/17 20:57:33

you're the one "squabbling"... zero self-awareness (nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:48:18

Have some boundary awareness and stay out of dialogue not - Macgrantt MU - 3/17 20:50:59

no one in this thread agrees with you on this, clown (nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:51:40

6-1 in R1, 6-2 overall... definitely the best league so far(nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:36:59

Wrong again but argue your wrong point endlessly - Macgrantt MU - 3/17 20:40:48

no, "First Four" is considered part of the tournament (nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:45:10

Northeast and Ivy are perfect! - chuckaluck MU - 3/17 20:38:36

One conference with more than 1 team in is actually perfect - KC rules MU - 3/17 20:50:10

not a large-enough sample size to count (nm) - zounami MU - 3/17 20:52:28

so SEC had 9 teams in?(nm) - tigerinhogtown STL - 3/17 20:35:06

Well, I guess I counted wrong the other day. - MizzouTigerz MU

- 3/17 20:52:17

6-1 unless ur counting texas(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/17 20:34:36
