Play-in Game

Kudos to Mount St. Mary's beating Coppin State, the tournament's first ever 20-loss team. The Mountaineers prize for such an historic win? Top ranked UNC. Yeah, good luck with that.

And for the record, it still is the play-in game...none of this "opening round" game BS that the tournament committee is trying to promote. It exists for teams, like Coppin State, that simply aren't worthy of a ranking by the committee, but still won their no-name conference tournament. Seriously, 20 losses won't even get you into the NIT.
