Anybody ever hear of Wright State University??? WOOT!!!! That's my university right there. Go Raiders!!!!!!! We are obviosuly an unknown team and school. It's located just outside of Dayton, OH (Fairborn to be exact)

We beat Butler about 3 weeks ago and everyone went on a riot. So this will be a tough and difficult game.

Woot, this is exciting. Everyone root for WSU!! If we pull this off, it's gonna get crazy!

I was waiting for this question.

Tickets were sold out before they even won the semi-final game. So it was sold out before WSU even made it to the finals.

I kind of like watching it on TV though. Hearing the commentators mentioning the school and giving it credit. Plus seeing many faces I recognize in the crowd.

Still, I'd rather be at the game, lol

Yea, they are predicted to get either a 12 or 13 seed. which means playing against either a 5 or 4 seed.

But when you think about it, we played and beat Butler both times and they were ranked nationally in the top 17. Theoretically if they had a 17 ranking they would be seeded around 4 or 5 seed. So, if Wright State can get motivated in this way, maybe, they have a shot, lol

Right now, Butler is projected as a 7 seed and Wright State a 13, according to Joe Lunardi's Bracketology over on ESPN.com
