SI: "The NCAA tournament impact of the ‘real AmeriCon’"

Postby Water Pony » Thu May 23, 2013 1:00 pm

"Yesterday, CBS Sports’ @JonRothstein tweeted seven teams from the newly created league that could challenge for an NCAA berth in 2014. Whether he’s a little strong on his prediction or not, it seems pretty likely the league will grab at least four NCAA bids next season."

BB is looking good for The American

I'm still confused how anyone could think a league with the defending champs (Louisville), UConn, Memphis, Cincy and Temple would not be strong?
SMU-12 NCAA appearances, 1 Final Four
2014-15 & 2016-17 AAC Men's Basketball Champs
