I’ll take it.

 

[wheelerdog]

Where do I sign?

 

[Tyler2Rings]

There is no competition for the subregionals in Albany. If we're a top 4 seed, we're there

I’ll take it.

I would take this in a heartbeat

 

[Matt1010]

These sorts of things are silly at this point in time, but that quad would be an absolute dream scenario as a four seed. We'd be solid favorites over NC State in a 4/5 matchup and close to a PK against Kansas.

 

[AntG168]

What a relief. I thought we were a bubble team

The Athletic 1/20/23

2nd round vs Pikiell and Rutgers would be so intriguing.

 

[August_West]

What a relief. I thought we were a bubble team

Give it time.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Princeton would be a tough matchup with their offensive running through 6'8 220 senior Tosan Evbuomwan (13.2p, 6.2r, 4.4a, 52.3 fg%) and a nice mix of shooters.

Are you suggesting that Capel will have a 1st rnd win before Hurley does?

 

[willie99]

I doubt they'll keep us in MSG as a 4 seed. That wouldn't be fair to the 1, 2 and 3.

Although I should not assume we'll win our first two games anymore

 

[ToolzieFan]

Lunardi has us as the top 5 seed. Honestly, it’s probably fair. With our body of work, we could easily jump up several seeds if we get back on track.

For anyone who hasn't seen it before check out BracketMatrix. Much more accurate source that consolidates a bunch of brackets. Currently has us as a 4 seed.

So you’re saying someone has to win one as a 5 and it might as well be us?

 

[QDOG5]

Actually, I was going to say no team has ever won as a 4 and I wanted us to get off the 4 line. So, I looked it up and I was wrong. Now, I'm saying let's win out and get a 1 seed.

 

[PNolanFan]

I know its a bit OT but ACC with 7 in appears to be a joke to me

 

[CL82]

I’ll still take it. We just need to stop the skid, so we will actually get there.

 

[Hunt for 7]

I will take the latest ESPN brackets. I think we could get to the second weekend and have a good chance against Houston in the sweet 16.

 

[karstenkibbe]

I just can’t take Lunardi seriously with his seven ACC schools in the field of 68. Nope.

 

[HooperScooper]

Kyle Boone bailing on the Huskies.

2. UConn​

Odds to win title: +1800

It pains me as a UConn truther to say it, but the Huskies might be pretenders. The 14-0 start to the season was fabulous, and the 15-point home win over Marquette this week was euphoria wrapped inside some early-season nostalgia. However, what we saw to open the 2023 calendar year -- the Hukies lost five of their first seven games -- was alarming. If this team gets its act together and starts rounding into form again, I'll happily jump back onto the UConn wagon. For now, I'm regretfully hedging my Huskies bets.

hardly. 6 easy, mebbe 7.
here's the win totals for the top 6 - 18, 18, 17, 19, 19, 17. #7 has 16.
cuse and Carolina are at 15.
that conference is 108-52 in ooc.

i know, i know, there are no other conferences, teams, or nba players existing anywhere else in the country. or so im told.

Good point maybe his nickname should be joey BrACCets or it could be that the ESPN paid a lot to get rights to the ACC games so they have to try and keep up interest to get viewers. The ACC is as weak as I ever remember.
