Was anyone just watching the halftime of the Nova-UConn game? I had the game on mute while I was listening to the end of HC-Lehigh. But when I looked up at the TV, Littlepage (Head of the selection committee) was on and they were showing Bucknell highlights, suggesting he was commenting on our at-large chances. I unmuted the TV too late to hear what he said about us. If anyone happened to have that on, can you please fill me in on what he said. I know he had a positive take during an interview with Andy Katz...

In response to BUFan
They were showing BU/UNI highlights, but they never specifially talked about any teams. The questions were more geared towards whether he thought that there would be more mid-majors in this year. Also they asked if there were a ninth team from the Big East going against a mid-major with a similar record, would they hold being the 9th team from the Big East against them. Littlepage was very non-commital in everything he said. They would evaluate teams on their portfolio, not on what conference they play in. He said that there were probably 20 locks for the at large bids, so there are still quite a few up for grabs. Bucknell was never mentioned by name either in a question or a response.
