The NCAA Tournament Thread

[vegasman2000]

Never underestimate the Stupidity of the NCAA .

If my conspiracy theory is correct (they screwed BE because they don't have football and CBS wanted to raise the profile of football schools for $) then it may not be a one-off snub. Which is a huge problem

I bought into the hype in my brackets, as they all had very strong KenPom numbers. So much for that ...

Yet another reminder all things related to KenPom belong in the recycle bin.

Did not watch most of Grand Canyon game, but they obviously have great fan base. Win was dedicated to Aiden Igiehon

Grand Canyon looks like a legit team. Have 30 wins now.

Band for hire.

I feel horrible for the financially struggling Yale. Poor school is so cash strapped it could not afford to send its band to the tournament.

Mountain West is 3-4 so far. Probably should have gotten four bids - SD ST, Utah St, Nevada and conference tourney winner, New Mexico. SJU and SHU could have replaced Boise and Col St. in the play-in round.

I mean they “only” have a $40.7B endowment fund. How will they survive!

Arizona looks good. They play Defense. Dayton has to work for every shot. Good game though.

Caleb Love looks good and pretty much has every time I’ve seen him play this year. Leaving UNC appears to have been good for him, less pressure.

Conference Scorecard through 2 days:

AAC = 2 bids, 0-2
ACC = 5 bids, 4-1 (dammit, but justice is coming this weekend)
A10 = 2 bids, 2-0 (underrated conference this year)
Big 12 = 8 bids, 5-3
Big East = 3 bids, 3-0
Big 10 = 6 bids, 4-2
Mountain West = 6 bids, 3-4
Pac 12 = 4 bids, 5-0
SEC = 8 bids, 3-5. Woof!

Maybe I’m wrong but this wasn’t a great Zags team. Think Kansas wins this one.

 

[sjc88]

Storming Norman given some last second stat to Self!

One of the weaker Gonzaga teams in years, but there’s also something off about this particular Kansas squad. The depth just isn’t there

Hey, their endowment is only $41,000,000,000. No, that is not my usual exaggeration for comedic value. It is REALLY $41 billion and they can't fly their band on JetBlue?!
