I’m a bit confused here @TownesVanZandt @WVUFanForever @Cuyahoga Falls Eers

ACC has two Sweet Sixteen teams and there’s a chance the Big 12 only gets 1 through. So after all of the homer noise ACC May end up being better. You three better cheer really hard for Kansas hahahahaha ;)

If you're here to constantly take shots at WVU's conference then you need to move on. I'm tired of reading it and I'm sure others are as well. I don't want to hear your excuses, stop or leave.

Just busting the chomps of our site racist troll @TownesVanZandt and lunatic @WVUFanForever. Admittedly I’m also busting @Cuyahoga Falls Eers chomps because he put up a couple threads after first round that went sideways for Big 12 obviously. Your site brother. I’ll move along and bail out.

Ummm. Maybe your post means you were so wrong about your Big 12 gloating threads that you can’t come to grips with the fact that the Big 12 is not as good as you thought. Your numbers prove that so it must be that. Other than that not sure it matters why you wasted your time with this jibberish post.

PAC-12 surprisingly will have 4 teams in Sweet 16. Is that conference really that good, or was it the luck of the draw?

It's the NCAA tourney and rarely tells you much about a conference. This happens every year and everyone acts surprised. Some conferences have a horrible year and others will have a great year. It's the same with bowl games. I don't mean to imply that you can't learn anything from looking at the conference teams' success but it's silly to act like it tells you everything about which conference is best.

No doubt this year is crazy. Parity is the word this yr. All year the PAC would have been the 5th or 6th best Conference. Today I’d vote for the PAC as the best conference.

I don’t agree. Many years the Sweet Sixteen definitely gives you a sense of which conference is the strongest. Not all years. I follow the ACC, Big Ten and Big 12 closely. Before this Tourny I would have said the Big Ten was the best with the Big 12 closely behind and the ACC at 4th or 5th. UCLA had a fortunate draw. That happens sometimes. But those other three earned their way through. Quite impressively actually. No denying the PAC after this weekend. Bowls are different unquestionably for several reason. So yeah Bowls are basically glorified exhibition games. However last years 0-6 Bowl season confirmed to me that the ACC sucked last year.

SINCE YOU OBVIOUSLY ARE SMARTER THAN ME, HOW ABOUT YOU NAME THE TEAMS THAT WILL BE IN THE ELITE EIGHT SO THAT WE CAN TAKE SHOTS AT YOU AFTER SWEET SIXTEEN GAMES ARE PLAYED. OR DO YOU JUST SHOOT OFF YOUR MOUTH AND ARE TOO NAMBY-PAMBY TO PUT YOUR OPINIONS ON THE LINE FOR TARGET PRACTICE BY OTHERS? PUT UP OR SHUT UP! IF YOU DON'T DO IT NOW, AND GIVE YOUR REASONS, AS I DID FOR WEEKS, THEN YOU ARE ONLY GOOD AT SNIPING AND TOO WIMPY TO MAN UP!

Wow are you unhinged. Relax old timer. I never said I was smarter than you. I just mocked you about acting like the smartest guy on the block. I know a hell of a lot more about football than you that’s for damn sure. Hoops........I’d describe myself as an informed fan. I was high school good but only played into first two years of high school. I transferred to private school for football and didn’t play my Jr and Sr year.

I‘ll play along but my point was to bust your chops because you are an insufferable miserable homer that claims to be a sportswriter. I believe you were one at one point but now you’re just a fanboy that really is rarely right even though you think you know so much more than anyone else.

Here are my picks big guy: Gonzaga, Michigan, Alabama, Oregon, Loyola, Baylor, Arkansas and Houston.

I may or may not pick well but unlike you I don’t claim to know more than you, other than football of course.

Basketball is an easy game....

Similar to football. All about energy. But unlike football that energy can switch very quickly.

Have to figure out how each team gets their energy and if they are capable of removing the energy from another team.

This is why the game can be so unpredictable.
Always best to see who the best 3-4 players are. Often times it isn't about scoring points...

Lets see....you get bitchslapped by Vernon again.
osugrad/king coal gets banned on the pay site
skyhawk makes a post that gets the tvz thread locked....

Are we seeing who the real issues are here on the free board.

Get rid of these three and the board can thrive again.

Missed this one haha. You’ve never played real football and played rec hoops so you’re not one that I’d consider a respected source on the topic of football and basketball. I get you’re a small time, self proclaimed sports expert but I can tell you literally have zero idea what you’re talking about. You spit out one cliche after another. “Energy” haha. Your post is literally jibberish.

You're not a respected source when it comes to financial planning. Only a real top 1% wage earner like myself is. But I am sure you are pretty well respected at deciding the best flavor to put in the slurpee machine at 7/11.

Here's my take on Big 12 vs ACC

I want WVU to be in the ACC because the teams are all closer and I miss some of the old rivalries. I dont give a flying f about what conference is superior to what other conference, although Im burnt on the no defense all air raid teams in the Big 12 by now. I just think it makes more sense for WVU to be in the ACC. The travel for games now is ridiculous.

Top 1% wage earner at Taco Bell doesn't mean much to anyone except you. Now where are my tacos?
