Greek Tragedy

Any word if CBS Sports will be replaying the Championship game or if the NCAA website will be posting the full replay? I know they have the all-star game up and I remember last year watching Whitewater's win online on the NCAA website. To my dismay, my dvr didn't record the game.  :'(

Would be good if it was the case... I was somewhere in Tennessee and Georgia and didn't get to watch it yet.

I figured someone would probably say that, but in all honesty, it shouldn't count as an NCAA Tournament game since the teams were already eliminated from the bracket. Your story about Albany is exactly why the game shouldn't count on an NCAA Tournament record. Just like the national third-place game or an ECAC game -- you never know if both teams are actually interested in playing. That's not the case in an NCAA Tournament game.

I think I agree with the first bolded part. Being eliminated from a bracket, it seems kind of odd that you're part of the tournament still.

But, whether they should be part of the tournament or not, they are. So as far as not considering them because one team may not care about playing, eh, so what? Do regular season games not count because some team has been eliminated from contention, and they're just playing out the string, and you can tell from their body language they don't want to be out there?

I didn't have CBS Sports as one of my channels on the day of the game but on Thursday afternoon I upgraded my cable package because they moved the MLB Network into the next tier and by purchasing that tier to get MLB I also got CBS Sports. I went to the program guide to see if they would be showing the DIII Championship game anytime soon.

I was able to advance the programming for that channel all the way through next Thursday April 2nd. They will be showing in the next week, the championship game of the women's Division II NCAA tournament, 2 or 3 games from the CBI Division I tournament (that tournament is a best of 3 finals for schools that didn't get an NIT invite) and will have Louisiana (Monroe) and Loyola (Chicago) playing for the tournament title, several games from a tournament called The College Insider.com Basketball Championship and a host of NCAA Division I replays. There was no mention however of a Division III game. :P  Maybe they already replayed it the one time they were going to. ???

I'm hoping Pat or Dave can come on and give us a link that will allow us to watch a replay of the title game. I thought that Pat said earlier there would be a time shortly after the game that we would be able to see a replay, but I may be wrong about that.

I actually emailed them and got a response.  The guy didn't think they were planning on re-airing it. I asked if I could get a copy, but no response on that request yet.

I do remember (unless I mis-remembered) watching last year's final on the NCAA website a few days after the Final was played. I haven't found anything except the All-Star game full replay and of coures, the full replays of the semis.

GT, Could I trouble you to let me know what comes of you trying to get a copy of the game??  I'd love to get a copy myself, I wasn't able to watch it due to technical difficulties...was only able to listen to it.

As much as I was amazed to see Stevens Point win the National Championship this year, what makes it even more amazing is how they did it in the tournament. Dating back to Point's first title in 2004, this year's Point team won by an average of 18.5 points a game, 2nd to only Point's 2nd championship in 2005 when they averaged a MOV (margin of victory) of 21.2.

Margin of victory starting with 1st game and ending in the Final. You may want to check my math. LOL

2004-Point: 26, 11, 21, 1 (OT), 25, 2: 14.33 MOV average
2005-Point: 35, 18, 6, 23, 24: 21.2
2006-VWC: 8, 1, 11, 2, 3: 5
2007-Amherst: 17, 23, 12, 7, 13: 14.4
2008-Wash U.: 5, 3, 8, 11, 15, 22: 10.67
2009-Wash U.: 2, 3, 3, 15, 19, 9: 8.5
2010-Point: 1, 15, 7, 16, 12, 5: 9.33
2011-St. Thomas: 10, 8, 2, 16, 2, 24: 10.33
2012-Whitewater: 15, 29, 11, 15, 3: 14.5
2013-Amherst: 17, 27, 19, 8, 17: 17.6
2014-Whitewater: 24, 19, 18, 23, 8, 2: 15.67
2015-Point: 32,17, 20, 17, 9, 16: 18.5

If it's any consolation, Greek, I was also amazed Point won.  ;)

However, what might be even more amazing is that in the 12 years you reference, only 6 different teams have won the championship.

Yeah. That is pretty crazy with 4 teams having won it at least twice in just that span.

Only if Whitewater and Mt. Union do the same for football. :-)
