Lunardi only missed one team. The man delivered

WOW

 

[MVP]

Gators-Cardinals final.

Wisky and Mich St. I the other ones.

 

[hsalem]

I'll have predictions for you all later

 

[seymore cake]

What's the status on Embiid?

Out the first weekend I believe.

We could be done the 1st weekend as well

 

[finallyfamous]

this bracket is unbelievable

 

[finallyfamous]

When will the times be announced?

 

[superantigen]

No respect for the AAC

Brah, absolutely none.

They practically shoved all the AAC teams into the same region.

Craziest bracket I think I've ever seen.

 

[nako xl]

"xxxx has an easy road to the final 4" is a rhetoric repeated every year only for said team to catch a L in the 2nd round

People never get that matchups make fights.

Thad Matta is sweating in the corner of his office somewhere. 

Lose/lose situation.

Lose to Dayton, a relatively small instate school with one of your ex-players you didn't give any minutes to, now shining.

Beat Dayton and have to face Cuse's zone with no shooters.

 

[MVP]

When I win that billie. Everyone in this thread that posts their predictions gets 1k.

 

[pmatic]

I got Michigan St. (champs), Louisville (runner ups), Florida and Arizona making my Final Four.

I like the Cyclones in the Elite 8.

no you don't.

Final 4 Syracuse -Iowa State - L'Ville - Wisky

 

[andoneflip]

Michigan state is in my final 4

 

[philosophiae dr]

If Kansas is 100% healthy, I like them over Florida, but we'll never know...

 

[rook]

Thought i believe Iowa state can beat MSU. I like that matchup if it happens

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

I would love to see Iowa St make a run but I also love seeing the occasional HBCU upset. :\

 

[tvobach]

Kansas shouldn't have any trouble getting to the s16 without Embid.

Gotta take a long look at the bracket before I post predictions

Not so fast....Bairstow, Kirk, Williams are all very good players.

 
What's the status on Embiid?

Out the first weekend, will play the 2nd weekend (if KU makes it)

 

[shoeking2101]

Just filled out my bracket

Final Four: Louisville, Michigan State, Florida, & Arizona.

Champs: Arizona.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

looking at advanced numbers closer.

North Carolina central have they force 5th highest turnover rate in the whole country. good offensive reboudning team all great traits for upsets.


only problem is Iowa St. avoids turnovers like no other, and they control the boards pretty well.

If NCCU got a different matchup I would like them better, but there is still a slight, smaller than I originally thought chance for upset.

 

[philosophiae dr]

If Okie State knocks off 'Zona, all hell will break loose.

If the Wildcats can get past them, I think they're guaranteed to be in the Final 4.

Wellman with NO Answer for New Mexico being a 7 seed with only 2 losses and beating SD St. To win their conference. Entire bracket seems void of reasoning

Btw to answer that guys questions.. Their OOC SOS was 18. Road record of 8-3. Neutral record of 6-1. One "bad" loss in 108 rpi UNLV.. That's pretty much it. Of their 6 losses, only two come from non tournament teams (Boise State away and UNLV home). I guess that home loss was good for a 2-3 seed drop.. Meanwhile Syracuse can lose to 180 rpi Boston College and not drop a thing. They have 3 top 25 rpi wins, one more than 4 seed UCLA..

I'm thinking they were remembering what happened last year to them.. Biases galore. Maybe that Alford fate will follow UCLA and they get knocked out early

I can't wait to see David Stockton guard Marcus Smart.
