Meanwhile, the Pac-10 will most likely get just one bid (the automatic bid). haha yes it was Dayton, but who predicted Temple, Rhode Island, Charlotte, Xavier, and the Richmond Spiders ALL to be working on NCAA Tournament resumes?!

Pete - UNLV won the title in 1990 and lost in the Final Four in 1991. You had a guess not post? Please let me know if that happens again. Doug – Temple is the answer.

But I like Potter's guess. I had also thought of UNLV Smitty, but I thought Casey would mention national championships in his summary if it was them. Besides, wasn't their run in 70s and 80s? They either went to Final Four or home early if I recall. My original guess (Oklahoma) did not post apparently. But I like Potter’s guess.

The Temple Owls, from the surprisingly tough A-10, have had a solid season and as Casey has pointed out, have the necessary make-up to cause a team fits come March. Although, Richmond did handle them pretty easily Saturday. Oh those fiesty Spiders! Alma-mater of Todd McShay! Final Answer: Temple Owls After much thought and research, I found out the answer!
