Jay Bilas lists top 10 college basketball teams during his time as a broadcaster

He said the team played better, not Stanley or “James” Dyson.

He said the team played better when both guys were in the game. But, Stanley played better after Jerome’s injury when Jerome was obviously not in the game and the team did make its F4 run then.

Uh, am I missing something? We got them in Detroit because it was the Final Four!

If we were the #1 overall seed, they would have been in our region (since they were in the region of the #1 overall seed as it was), and we would have been in Boston (since #1 overall seed would have gotten preference of location).

This doesn't make any sense. You are effectively saying that, for some reason, UConn would have a major advantage the first time the teams see each other, and then UNLV would have a slight advantage over the next 9 games. Why would that be the case?

Not what i meant at all.

True road game in the Final Four was spectacularly unlucky, though I don't think we get past UNC either way.

With Dyson, we're probably a slight underdog to UNC, but it would have been a hell of a game.

I've imagined it as something that would have been similar to 1999 against Duke. I wouldn't have been "shocked" by a victory, but others might widely have termed it that way.
