Darrelle Revis is headed back to the Jets
(AP) |
We all know that the Jets were very interested in bringing back Revis, especially after Woody Johnson tampered with him back in December and had been reported pushing new GM Mike Maccagnan to sign Revis, but is it a good move? Here are my thoughts.

2015 WAC Tournament Predictions
The fourth and final tournament to be held in Las Vegas Paradise, Nevada is that of the Western Athletic Conference, which kicks off tomorrow. The easy tournament favorite has to be the Aggies of New Mexico State as they lost only once during conference play and won the regular season crown by five games over Grand Canyon and UMKC. They are also the three-time defending champs of the tournament. That said, we have seen crazier things happen in these conference tournaments. Thus, here are my predictions.

2015 Big Sky Tournament Predictions
The Big Sky Conference kicks off their conference tomorrow in Missoula and given that the conference tournament will be held in Missoula, thanks to Montana winning the regular season title, gives Montana a significant advantage this weekend. After all, every top seed since 2010 has won the conference tournament and thus gotten the conference's automatic to the NCAA Tournament. Will we see the same this week?
Here are my 2015 Big Sky Tournament predictions.

2015 Big West Tournament Predictions
It was only one year ago that the Big West sent their seventh-seeded team in the conference tournament to the NCAA Tournament in Cal Poly. And they beat the fifth-seeded team in the championship game to get there! Last year's Big West Tournament was absolute chaos, will this year be anyway similar? Here are my predictions.

2015 American Tournament Predictions
The second American Athletic Conference Tournament kicks off tomorrow in Hartford with 11 teams in the mix, one more than last year's ten after adding East Carolina, Tulane and Tulsa after losing Louisville, the defending champion, and Rutgers. The favorite of the conference has to be the regular season champion SMU, who won their first regular season title since 1993, but there are some other clubs trying to solidify their tournament bids if not stealing that automatic bid. Many eyes are on Connecticut, the defending national champions, as they have a de facto home-court advantage. All in all, plenty to keep an eye on.
Here are my 2015 American Tournament predictions.

2015 Sun Belt Tournament Predictions
The Sun Belt Tournament will be in New Orleans this week for the first time since 2002 and for the second straight year, the Panthers of Georgia State sit as the top seed and the favorite. However, they fell in the championship game to Elfrid Payton and Louisiana-Lafayette last year. Will they be upset again, with Georgia Southern, Louisiana-Monroe and Lafayette once again in the mix? Or will they get to their first tournament since 2001?
Here is my predictions for the 2015 Sun Belt Tournament.

Mike and Ben get the jump on the Syracuse basketball infractions and the future of Jim Boeheim. With NBA action this week, has Russell Westbrook solidified himself as an MVP candidate or is James Harden better? We touch on laughable and/or outlandish stories in the news this week and plan for the NCAA conference tournaments before Selection Sunday, March 15, including American University.

2015 Big Ten Tournament Predictions
As the Big Ten Tournament returns to the Windy City, it will feature an expanded look after the addition of Maryland and Rutgers to the conference. There is a good amount on the line this week with Wisconsin trying to get a one seed and a few teams (Purdue, Indiana, Illinois) on the at-large bubble. Couple that with the teams on the outside looking in to secure a tournament berth with the automatic bid and the teams trying to improve their seeding and you've got some fun in Chitown.
Here are my predictions for the 2015 Big Ten Tournament.

2015 Big 12 Tournament Predictions
For the sixth straight year, the Big 12 tournament will be held in KCMO. The Big 12 had a pretty wild year with only two games separating the first-place team (Kansas) from the fifth-place team (West Virginia). We don't even know who the second-best Big 12 team is. All in all, it should be a wild week in Kansas City.
Here are my predictions for the 2015 Big 12 Tournament.

2015 SEC Tournament Predictions
As the 2015 Southeastern Conference Tournament kicks off this Wednesday in the Music City, the only storyline that anybody cares about is Kentucky's drive to be the first undefeated team since Indiana in 1975-76. Given how the conference is not that deep, one would expect the Wildcats to run right through the tournament but you never know with these conference tournaments.
Here are my SEC Tournament predictions.

2015 Big East Tournament Predictions
It is the second year of the "new" Big East Tournament and it follows a resurgent regular season that leaves the conference poised to get as many as six bids to the NCAA Tournament. All eyes are now on Villanova, who dominated the conference and only have lost two games all season, to see if they can get a top seed. The easiest way for them to make their case is to run through the conference tournament this week, but a loss could relegate them to the two line.

2015 Southland Tournament Predictions
There are 13 teams in the Southland Conference, but there are only eight competing in this week's Southland Tournament in Katy, Texas. How does that happen? There are three programs that are ineligible for postseason play due to the failure to meet the NCAA's Academic Performance Rating requirements in Central Arkansas, Houston Baptist and Lamar, and two programs are in transition from Division II to Division I in Abilene Christian and Incarnate Word.
What that doesn't change is that the defending tournament champion Stephen F. Austin, remains the overwhelming favorite in this tournament. Will the Lumberjacks advance to their second straight tournament or will someone pull the upset? Here are my 2015 Southland Tournament predictions.

2015 Atlantic 10 Tournament Predictions
Which is the mid-major conference ranked highest in conference RPI? It would be the Atlantic 10 Conference, whose conference championship kicks off this Wednesday in Crooklyn. This year, the tournament contains 14 teams after the addition of Davidson to the conference and the Wildcats sure made an impact in their debut season as they won the conference regular season crown and thus are the top seed in the conference tourney. The A-10 has a few teams in the mix for the Big Dance, making that automatic bid all the more valuable.
Who will lock up their tournament bids this week, including that auto-bid? Here are my predictions for the 2015 Atlantic 10 Tournament.

2015 ACC Tournament Predictions
The Atlantic Coast Conference will kick off its tournament tomorrow, the first time it will be held on a Tuesday, and it will conclude on a Sunday for the first time in over 30 years. It will also feature one less team than the record 15 it fielded a year ago after Syracuse announced a self-imposed postseason ban last month ahead of expected NCAA sanctions that were handed down this week. The conference appears poised to be getting two one seeds in the upcoming NCAA Tournament but there are also some conference sitting on the bubble that could use some wins to secure at-large bids, if not getting that automatic bid.
Here are my predictions for the 2015 ACC Tournament.

2015 SWAC Tournament Predictions
The Southwestern Athletic Conference kicks off their conference tournament tomorrow in Space City. Similarly to last year's tournament, but not to the same extent, there are two teams that are playing in the conference tournament but are ineligible for the NCAA Tournament in Alabama State and Southern. However, those two are the second and third seeds which means they could very well win the conference tournament. In that scenario, the furthest-advancing eligible program will get the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA's.
Here are my predictions for the 2015 SWAC Tournament.

2015 MAC Tournament Predictions
The Mid-American Conference Tournament kicks off today and with a three-way tie for first place in the conference (albeit across two divisions), and three more teams within two games of first, it shapes up to be wide open. Figuring that, who will get the conference's automatic bid to the 2015 NCAA Tournament?
Here are my predictions for the 2015 MAC Tournament.

2015 MEAC Tournament Predictions
The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference kicks off the second week of conference tournaments with their very own tournament in Hampton Roads. As with last year's edition, the Eagles of North Carolina Central are the runaway favorite. Central was able to run through the conference tournament with relative ease last year, will this year be the same? Here are my predictions.
