Vanderbilt's Sweet 16 opponent: (6) Notre Dame

How the Commodores can advance to the Elite Eight: Vanderbilt hadn't made it past the second round of the tournament since 2009. The Commodores will face Olivia Miles and Notre Dame. Blakes is the nation's leading scorer, but Miles is the third-best scorer in the country. She is also a pesky defender. The Commodores average just 13.1 turnovers per game, but they will have to be even more careful with the ball. Vanderbilt shot well from 3-point range in the first round of the tournament, knocking down 11 shots from distance. Blakes hit more 3-pointers than Illinois. Vanderbilt averages 26.3 3-point attempts per game and converts 36.3% of them.

Man, Olivia Miles is going to be TIRED. Are they going to fly her from the Notre Dame game to the TCU game immediately after?

Tough position to be in.

I know. I was pointing out ESPN's gaffe (again), as they might have used old copy or AI to create the talking points. There was no writer listed.

Hildago, Miles, there's not really any difference. All those ND guards have always been the same. Ivey, Loyd, Allen, Young, Diggins-Smith, Ogunbowale, Hildago, Miles.

And then their 2G's, Ratay, McBride, Duffy, Mabrey, Mabrey, Mabrey, Mabrey....etc.

Well, for a lesser woman sure. But Miles could probably squeeze in one more game.

NIL opportunity for "Frequent Flyer Miles."

I think the disconcerting thing to me is ESPN probably did use an AI to generate the article which begs the question, while this is about "sports" chat, what other AI gaffs occur that have far more disastrous impacts?
