These fools better wake up.

I think it’s also b/c of a close in the gap of competition in collegiate sports. More kids are able to compete against each other regardless of what school they’re in.

True. I think many NCAA bracketed championships lose track or don't keep track of the seeding. Soccer comes to mind. Top 4 may be seeded but that's it. Maybe I'm getting old and cranky but upsets shouldn't be celebrated from a committee level. They're straight up flaws

If UCI is this good; what about their big west counterpart? The mid majors keep on proving the committee wrong but can't get any benefit of doubt year over year. Belmont barely got in yet over rates big east and pac12 schools get in with ease?

Look at Iona representin the 914

ACC No 1 seeds been shaky in the first half

I have VCU giving Duke a tough test if they get past UCF tonight.

Possibly even an upset.

I feel you ... you bring up good points. I think it’s gonna take some time to see some gradual change. The more upsets, the more it’ll make them change their criteria.

How good is Kerry Blackshear from Va Tech ?

Some of the seedings coulda been flipped but the better seeds always gon go to the name/conference recognition schools

How long has it been since Gus called the tourney? It's not the same without him...The announcing crews as a whole isn't as good as it used to be. That's why there aren't any buzzer beaters this year.

 

[spacedoodoo]

UCF might be a decent matchup with duke.

champcruthik im only good with like $10 tbh. Low risk, low reward lol

 

[amarano]

they need to stop letting iowa state in the tourney.

they blow it every year

 

[second2nonee]

Iowa State was always boom or bust. They got a terrible whistle this game IMO. Out of bounds call on Shayok was a 2 point swing and the "kickball" was a 4 point swing. Refs can't be making obvious mistakes like that in such a close game.

Big 10 cleaned up round 1.

I gave up on the committee when Monmouth got the shaft a couple years ago and the reasoning was they didn’t win their conference tourney. If that’s the case then why do they even play regular season games?

One of the best bigs in the country when he stays out of foul trouble. Soft touch, physical inside, can hit the 3. He’s a damn good college big

Lol, no worries. I’m in. Wofford wins, I PayPal you $10. UK wins, you PayPal me $10.

 

[champcruthik]

Villanova over Purdue my biggest play in the Saturday games. Boilermakers too dependent on Carsen. Paschall and Booth get it done for Wright.

His game reminds of Al Horford.

Good comparison. He’s a quality big. Gets overlooked a little by the casual fan because of the volume long balls VT shoots. But if he ain’t near the top of your scouting report you’re in trouble.

Copped pastries for the tourney games. Let’s get this paper, fellas!
