When I was younger, it seemed like Pepperdine as always in it.  But that's been a minute.

I have no memory of a WCC Championship Game that wasn’t a St Mary’s/Gonzaga matchup.  It’s like the Lions on Thanksgiving.
Didn't BYU park their Olympic sports there? Have they not made it? They seem to make the tourney on a somewhat regular basis.

BYU was there last year, as well as 2015 and 2014. 

Before that, it was SM and the Zags back to 2008, the end of a three-year run with no SM.

Fun volleyball league.    Definitely has a XII flavor in hoops the past 15 years with Zags running the show a la KU.

I was exaggerating a little for effect.  However, since 2004 Gonzaga and St. Mary’s have met in the finals of the WCC Tournament 11 times. That’s a lot.

I find it interesting that even with all of these cancellations, conferences are still handing out their $ auto-bids.

My updated Bracket going into the major conference tournaments
Changes from last night:

Rutgers moves up to the 7 line, Saint Mary's falls to the 8
Robert Morris replaces St. Francis(PA) in the #16 seed play in games

Now that Robert Morris no longer needs their NIT auto-birth, Boise State slides into their spot there.

It'll be just my luck. Purdue will sneak in. They'll be placed in the West regional bracket. Unexpectedly, they'll make the Sweet 16 hosted in Los Angeles...

...and it'll be closed to the public so I can't go and get tickets.

I'll look incredibly stupid, but I'll take MSU over Illinois in the final.  All chalk, except Michigan over Rutgers on Thursday; Penn State over Maryland on Friday; and Illinois over Wisconsin on Saturday.
We've only had two guesses so far, anybody else care to chime in?

To more over-reaction?
What's the Flu Taskforce have to say about this?

They'd probably tell ya that in the 17/18 season, 80,000 Americans died from the flu.

Heard a Nebraska writer on a podcast say that he does not think either Mack or Burke will be back next year.  They are going to start all over from scratch, all over again.
