NCAA SELECTION SHOW DISCUSSION THREAD

[bac2therac]

didn't the reveal used to happen at 6PM...they are going to do this slowly

 

[bac2therac]

I thought Wisky would get a 6....thats a slap in the face to the Big 10 seeing they reached the B10 finals

 

[bac2therac]

haha suck it Duke! 2 seed

 

[bac2therac]

Providence/USC in first 4

uh oh Syracuse

 

[shields]

Please no Cuse!

 

[ColonelRutgers]

If Syracuse makes it there should be a criminal investigation

 

[bac2therac]

they would have to take Cuse over Wake or Kansas St or Vandy

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Dreaded 8/9 seeds for Big Ten so far. UW and MSU.

 

[Arizona Knight]

Two ACC vs B1G so far.

 

[bac2therac]

MSU got a better seed than anticipated...Mich got screwed with the 7...should be a 6

 

[Arizona Knight]

B1G not getting helped.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Go Creighton

 

[bac2therac]

South Carolina getting a better seed than Wisconsin is a complete joke

 

[shields]

Big Ten teams need to play well. Michigan vs Louisville would be interesting.

 

[RUJMM78]

B1G not getting helped.

BIG had no highly ranked teams which impacted seeding.

 

[bac2therac]

thats a great seed for Minny...I thought they were a 6 most had as a 7...tough first game though against Middle Tenn

 

[bac2therac]

Kansas/Wake Forest first four

looks like Cuse is out.....have to see Vandys name to clinch it

 

[shields]

Cuse did not make it I believe.

 

[bac2therac]

Cuse did not make it I believe.

do not jinx yet....need to see Vandy...remember they have 15 losses

 

[bac2therac]

there is Vandy

suck it Cuse

 

[mikebal9]

And with that, we are on the clock.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Another big ten 8/9 seed

 

[bac2therac]

If there is a one seed to face Northwestern got the one they want...I like them if they get by Vandy...

 

[shields]

Suck it Cuse!

 

[bac2therac]

how in the world did Maryland get a 6 while Wisconsin got an 8 and finished 2nd in the Big 10 and made the Big 10 final...not to mention Michigan a 7 to the Maryland 6

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Unbalanced conference schedules though so without knowing each team's schedule that has to be some factor. Don't think today's games have impact. Not enough time to redo brackets with so little time.

 

[bac2therac]

well first time EVER i got the whole field right. Truthfully there was only one that anyone could get wrong and that would be Cuse...weakest bubble ever.

Usually I do polls on which school got screwed and which school did not belong in the NCAA tourney but this year there is no need to. Field is solid with no complaining although I am sure Dickie V will be Syracuse...Syracuse....blah blah

cannot wait to here Jimmy's whine

 

[shields]

Can't lose to Georgetown, BC and UCONN. And go to Michigan or Indiana on the road.

 

[RUsojo]

This is exactly what I saw coming down to every seed. Good job by bracket makers

 

[huskersalways]

I don't think the Big 10 got much respect top to bottom.

I am as thrilled as you folks are for no Syracuse, just probably for a different reason.

Let me be the first(and last) to say it is a crime that Nebraska is not at least a 3 seed this year. I will never get how the committee thinks....

 

[G- RUnit]

Well done!!!

 

[huskersalways]

Will Indiana dump Crean tonight now??

 

[G- RUnit]

Bill Rafferty looking and sounding old.

 

[LC-88]

haha suck it Duke! 2 seed

Yes, but again they get to play on the east coast. Almost at home. I'll be dead before Duke plays a first round game west of the Mississippi. Homer city.

 

[ruman]

Bill Rafferty looking and sounding old.

Because he is. Still great though

 

[ruman]

how in the world did Maryland get a 6 while Wisconsin got an 8 and finished 2nd in the Big 10 and made the Big 10 final...not to mention Michigan a 7 to the Maryland 6

Minnesota got a 5

 

[huskersalways]

The committee chair(MSU AD) is the first one I've heard in a while that really seemed prepared to back up their selections. I don't think this year had as many good bubble choices but he was certainly good at explaining their decisions and it made sense.

 

[shields]

Virginia Tech vs Wisconsin is interesting game.

 

[bac2therac]

that was a great seed for them....their rpi was 19 I think so thats how they pulled that off

 

[RUonBrain]

This is exactly what I saw coming down to every seed. Good job by bracket makers

I even picked the correct locations and game start times.
