    just watch FGCU and GM highlights..lol

    does arizona have such a shit defense that buffalo can match hoops with them? maybe? danny hurley wins this game then takes over as UCONN head coach.

    kentucky is shitting their pants...they should be in where tenn is....how much of a reach would it be to have UK and Ariz upset. davidson is solid

    shit..i think upenn has a shot to beat kansas. i don't think there has ever been a 1 seed favorite by only 14..even if they get by them seton hall can give kansas all they want. KU is ripe for defeat imo

    i wouldn'nt bet any favorite in the 1st round of games....ohio state can burn your money as well

    bblooking @ the 3 seeds they all seems strong defensively..many will pick mich st, followed by mich, but will ignore tenn, and txtech.


    athletic defensive teams w/ strong PG play. who are they?

    is there any other scenario other than gonzaga/unc matchup down the road....i know u can;t feel that confident w/ mich and xavier

    maybe i should re-think michigan. they seem to be really deep and get scoring from everyone..not to mention play nice defense. i guess i'm really just a big 10 racist..and these mich players where those short shorts

    The #1 most likely to fall early is Xavier. Mizzou has a legit shot of knocking them off in the 2nd round behind the Porter duo. Consensus #1 overall pick this year Michael Porter Jr played one game. He is back and ready to show out.

    Kansas always seems to find a way to fuck things up too. Seton Hall is a good team
    It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?

    I always thought the play-in games were to determine the last teams to get in...i.e. to be one of the 16 seeds. Why is UCLA as an 11 seed in a playin game?

    The tournament has 32 conference champions that receive automatic bids and a committee selects the other 36 teams. The four worst conference champions and four worst committee picks play in the play in games.

    all the small conferences who are always going to be 16 seeds got pissed and complained so they changed it to a combo of 4 16 seeds playing each other and 4 11 seeds playing each other...the 11 seeds to play in the play in game are the last 4 at large teams in the field...

    Pro tip: If your friend asks you for an upset pick text back SD State so you have two chances.

    It's always been a problem for the little guy and mid majors getting dodged by the big conference teams when trying to schedule to play them.

    One thing that has helped this issue is the early season tournaments they have in a set destination so the little guy isn't forced to always play a road game versus teams like North Carolina, Kansas,etc. who are never going to travel to play in some mutt shop gym these schools have that has a couple thousand seats.

    More early season non conference tournaments with a mixture of schools of various conferences is what they need more of otherwise this problem won't go away.

    USC did get snubbed and Saint Marys played too many scrubs with no really good wins on their resume except beating the Zags.

    Big Ten only got 4 teams this year and all of them (not likely osu as much) have a legitimate chance of making at least the elite 8.

    A lot of these basketball analysts are taking MSU to go all the way but if that happens it would be something else because their path is probably as tough as it gets.

    Virginia has obviously looked strong and #1 for a reason but on paper before this starts it's as wide of an open field as we've seen in a long time.

    it prolly won't happen, but it's really not that far fetched.

    i guess we will see what ucla is about tonight..as much many think ucla will win i'm not so sure about that.

    i've seen enuff in 5min watching UCLA (up 7) that i won't be picking them vs florida who i don't know much about.

    this team reminds me of wisconsin green bay or a very bad version of gonzaga. where is the athleticism?

    i knew st bonnies was solid but i had no idea where to put UCLA on the spectrum. plenty has been answered in the 1st half imo

    i almost hope ucla wins. it makes picking FLA so easy..if the bonnies win it will be harder for the gators

    this doesn't bode well for ariz and ASU imo......this UCLA team lost to ariz in OT last time out....lol

    watching the bonnies put a zone vs them UCLA hasn't made a shit in 6 minutes...st bonny up 5 at half and they sucked shooting the ball as well


    .lol...ASU won;t break 50 vs syracuse..

    A10 never gets any respect...not saying top to bottom theyre world beaters, but there are at least 3-4 teams every year in that league that can make some noise in the tourney...

    Syracuse is really good value in the brackets. Game is close to 50/50, but almost everybody who filled in their bracket before today probably took TCU because it was a play-in game and people tend to not take the play-in team
