Mid Major Tourneys to Watch; A Tournament of Lore and Yore

The college basketball conference tournaments are starting up and you’ve got to get in on the action. But what mid-major conference playoffs do you pay most attention to?  ESPN will surely give the ACC, the Big East and the Big Ten their due coverage, but what about the little guys?  Here’s a report on some of the best action from the smaller ponds. You might not get to see Stephen Curry in the NCAA Tournament if he doesn’t win his conference, and the Missouri Valley could be up fro grabs. Check it out.

Also, if you’re looking for some literature of a historical nature about the NCAA Tournament, you can check out this amazing piece about the 1979 NCAA Basketball Tournament’s Title Game, which featured the Larry Bird-led Indiana Sycamores and the Magic Johnson-led Michigan State Spartans. It’s interesting stuff if you have a few minutes to sit down and work though the whole read.
