NCAA First Four Games

Possibly. Colorado doesn't have much of a frontline. Stanley could have a big game.

Spero makes a good point -- this Virginia program has been absolutely schizophrenic in the Tournament lately.

Get blown out by a 16 seed in 2018.
Win the Tournament in 2019.
Lose to 13 seeds in 2021 and 2023.
Embarrassing performance in the play-in game.

Schizophrenic? Sounds more like they got lucky once but have sucked every other chance they've had.

Only thing worth watching the ACC for is DJ Burns Jr. He is now the face, and belly, of the ACC.

i for one, would love to see a mathchup of manbearpig from NCSU, and Lumpkin fron CU.

This type of play shows the insanity of the committee. I am almost without words, but, I am not. I’ll just choose to keep them to myself because It. Doesn’t. Matter.

UVA with a shot clock violation on their very first possession. I would laugh if it weren't so sad.

That ended up being one of their better offensive possessions this game

This abomination of a team went 13-7 in the mighty ACC.

I'm serious here, the committee refused to acknowlege how truly mediocre the ACC was this past year.

What Wagner and Donald Copeland (St. Anthony ‘02, Seton Hall ‘06) have been able to accomplish is really kind of amazing. They only have 7 players available- their practices have been “no contact“ since December, yet they somehow manage to win the conference tournament and their first four game.

Things get a little tougher from here on out for 2 of the 3 coaches from Jersey City in the tournament, but I’m rooting for them.

The ACC was only going to get 4/15 schools in before NC State won, which is a lower % of schools than 3/11.

Yeah, but did they even warrant four (NC St excluded)?

I like Seth Greenberg but he just said this performance is not reflecting of that conference.

Sorry Seth, it's absolutely reflective of that conference. The ACC stinks these days.

He's still a VT guy.

I'm serious here, the committee refused to acknowlege how truly mediocre the ACC was this past year.

They gave Clemson a #6 seed because, golly, the 3rd best team in the ACC couldn't possibly be that bad.

This is why math nerds are not part of the mojo this year. Two years of factual data exceeds the limit of Boneyard tolerance.
