[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

MSU came to play today. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Unbelievable, Arizona is gonna get snubbed. Smdh. Win your regular season conference and win conference tournament and get rewarded with a 2seed while a team who didn't win either one is in line to get a 1seed based off their name. Gotta love the NCAA Selection Committee. Geniuses. 

[RaiderRed30]

VCU won the A-10. Everybody stopped talking about them after the injury. Well they winning now. Would hate to be in a sub regional with them.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

If Wisconsin keeps this up Arizona gonna have a 1seed by default. Sparty hoopin' today. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Badgers giving up. Smh. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Badgers giving up. Smh. 

Nevermind. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

This game is crazy! 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

OT!!!!! 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Spartans score zero points in OT. Badgers win!  

 

 

 

Give em a 1seed! 

[RaiderRed30]

Kansas, Indiana, and Wichita State in the same sub regional. Omaha gonna be crazy.

 

Texas is in as an 11. Big 12 getting respect

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

How in the hell Kansas is a 2seed?  I hope IU/WSU knocks them out 2nd round. The committee must have not watched the 8 games they lost nor the big12 final. 

[RaiderRed30]

The Big 12 was the deepest overall conference and Kansas won the regular season and reached the tournament final. They survived the conference but Wichita State will bring it. They want the Jayhawks

 

Looking at Louisville/UNI second round matchup seems enticing but being played in Seattle?

 

Your Kentucky should be worried playing in Louisville's arena. Could be cursed.

[RaiderRed30]

The Big 12 is really getting respected 2 seed Kansas, 3 seed Oklahoma, 5 seed West Virginia, 11 seed Texas so far.

 

Michigan State/Virginia 2nd round good matchups so far

Not sure what you mean by cursed, they have won there in the tournament before. I just hope Cincy beats Purdue, other than that our region is easy, I thought the committee would line up tougher teams in the Midwest. Maybe they were drunk, idk. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Dayton gets to play a play-in game in its own gym, thanks Selection Committee. Smh 

[RaiderRed30]

Even in the new arena? Still would not want to play in my rival's arena. It just takes one bitter worker to do something crazy.

 

Duke/St. John's rematch. Yes!

Possible Davidson/Gonzaga as well

 

Iowa State a 3 seed with SMU or UCLA in the 2nd round. Alford team's are usually good in the regular season and terrible in tournament. Could this year be the opposite?

 

Utah/SFA should be a great game for the first round

StJ wont have their center, he's suspended for 2weeks. I heard Davidson was legit, I need to look at their games. 

[RaiderRed30]

So Wisconsin gets the 1 seed in the west regional but are given Arizona as the 2 seed.

 

Overall the West Regional will probably be the toughest

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

My Final Four picks: UK-midwest, Arizona-west, Virginia-east, SMU-south

 

UK vs Virginia for the title

Arizona if they do will have on paper the toughest route. Texas Southern, VCU, Baylor or BYU and then Wisconsin.

The selection committee did everything they could in their power to make it a UK vs. Duke Title game. Lol

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

I picked Kentucky to win the National Championship. Which team would win your bracket? Fill one out in ESPN Tournament Challenge!

So UK could lose in the conference tournament and not make the NCAA tourney? That ain't right, I don't care how you slice it.

There's like 40 at-large bids. Nobody in the top 30 or so would be left out if they lost in their conference tourneys

I was playing off what Coug cal said. I shouldn't do that when someone is giving me good info. I still think the conference tournament is ridiculous.

Best teams I have seen play are UK, Duke, Wisconsin, Virginia.
