Dykstra: Time to Check the Box Score

As far as the power conferences are concerned, their tournaments do not conclude until this weekend. Hence, for several teams in the Pac-10, Big 12, Big East, SEC, Big Ten, Southwest Conference and ACC, their conference tournaments are merely for seeding in the NCAA tournament. However, if a lower seed wins one of the power conference tournaments, that could eradicate the dreams of a mid-major runner-up of participating in March Madness.

Regardless of what transpires over the next few days, Selection Sunday will be dissected by the pundits with their authoritative views. Moreover, the bubble will burst for some teams, while for others the bubble will represent their vehicle to participate in the NCAA tournament. Nonetheless, uncertainty will abound until the last team standing cuts down the nets.

Always remember: Life is a journey, enjoy the ride!
