NCAA Tourney Draw

Also Texas at 19-14 has no business in the field .

I agree, another team with a losing conference record in the tourney.

The worst snub is USC, who finished 2nd in the Pac 12 and yet Arizona State finished 8th and got in, makes absolutely no sense.

I did not know this. That is a fucking WOW.

Agree . One of three teams linked to FBI probe left out . Oklahoma st, Usc, and Louisville I think ? Usc should be in over every other bubble team.

I said the same thing I would rather have UNC and Xavier as top 2 seeds instead of Duke and Kansas. Izzo has always had issues with Duke and Bagely was out when they played to start the year, And Kansas looked tough in the B12 tourney

bagley went out in that game - he played 10 minutes and scored 4 pts. We lost that game because we turned the ball over and got out rebounded and then Allen couldn't miss anything inside half court.

dook definitely has our number and they're the team I fear the most in our bracket but I think we're far more vulnerable to a team going off from outside than we are to a guy like Bagley.

I agree . Cut the turnovers down and Msu gets by Puke. Msu should be the tougher team. Turnovers have come down all season for msu. Get on a run and if Winston plays lights out dishing the ball and hitting a few threes and the tables could be turned on that team who I almost hate as much as Ohio st.
 
Hey Jb was interviewed in the espn2 bracket show !!!!

Shocker Dan Dakich picks Ohio St To Make the Final four, and he picks 3 big ten teams to make the final four and Michigan is not one of the three.


Tom Crean picks Gonzaga over Tennessee, and Villanova over Kansas with the wildcats winning it all.

Dan Dakich picks Osu over Virginia and Msu over Purdue. Osu over msu.

Laphonso Ellis picks Gonzaga over Virginia and msu over Villanova.
Msu over Gonzaga.

Houston could be tough. I don't think the committee did Michigan any favors. Montana, Houston, then UNC...

Oh well, we will see what happens.

Surprised they didn't split the 4 big ten teams into different regions. I'd love another Michigan vs Ohio State game

Houston did take Cincinnati right down to the wire in the final game of the season before the tourney playin.
 
I know I'm not suppose to root for other Big ten Schools and I probably can't root for Ohio st but as far as the other 3 big ten schools I just want the big ten to get over the hump and win another title . I'm tired of other conferences getting better treatment then the big ten in the ncaa tournament.

Fuck MSU and OSU. I hope both lose in the first round.

I will root for Purdue to do well.

why are you not supposed to root for other B1G schools? you'd rather see an ACC or SEC team win the NC? That doesn't make much sense to me. I'd much rather uofm or osu or PU make the final four or if not MSU, have one of them win it all than anyone else, especially ky, dook, unc or villanova. And I'd much rather see 3 or 4 B1G teams in the sweet 16 or deeper and have the ACC, SEC and Big East lose more than half their teams in the first two days if not the first weekend a la the Big East in the mid 2000s.

lowly Memphis gave them a bit of a scare too - they completely crapped the bed in the second half and lost by 10 but it definitely wasn't easy for the bearcats. I think they and Xavier are the 2 weakest teams by far in the top 8. I was desperately hoping they would be the 1 & 2 (which I believe was the projection based on that preliminary bracket released a few weeks ago) but they moved Xavier out west and put Cinci in the east. As it is, I think MSU and uofm got placed in the brackets with the two toughest 2 seeds but I like the 1 seeds in both if we can get through to the final 8. I like your 1 seed a lot better but I don't mind going against a Bill Self coached team.

Did you read the whole thing or just the first sentence . Dude what the fuck is wrong with you ?

Well my wife is a Msu fan so there is that . I mean I won't openly scream and cheer for them but I would root for them over Duke or say North Carolina because the commetitee/Ncaa always seems to favor the Acc in brackets and or games .

The wife is a legit reason. I'll give you a pass there, Bob. :cheers:

I'll be pulling for the Jackrabbits and Bison in the 1st round. I just like wild game.

Not me. I root against several Big Ten schools in fact (Michigan, OSU, Wisconsin, Indiana) pretty much regardless of who they play in hoops. Does that make me a bad fan? Maybe, but I hate all those teams and won?t put my biases aside to make the conference look better to pundits.

I sure as shit am not rooting for MSU or OSU to root it over any other team, and that includes Notre Dame.
