Really? I love it. Get to enjoy Thursday and most of Friday before we play.Another crappy late start. Hate that slot.

Is the 9:25 start confirmed? I’ve seen it listed at 1245 and 715 as well
Xavier/Texas on Wednesday is gonna be a fun watch - two teams we played.Big East fared well. Got 5 teams in. Last year only 3.
There's an inferiority complex here about the Big East and even about UConn which blows my mind considering we have the best program in the country and the Big East is a damn good basketball conference.1. The amount of whining here is pathetic. We talked about it for a few weeks. We were on the 8/9 line. It will take our A game to beat Florida. Guess what? It would also take our A game to beat any of the ones or twos. That's the nature of the tournament. As @AntG168 said we don't have to beat Florida in a 7 game series. Just for 40 minutes. Scared of playing them? Go find something else to do. Have some pride.
2. For the people who though the BE got screwed...what is wrong with you? As @superjohn said, no they didn't, with the exception of Creighton, who has to play an 8 seed in a road game. I thought Xavier deserved to get in, but they could have easily been left out. The seeds were all about what we predicted.
3. I think Oklahoma is a good team, but there are better teams that could have been a 9.
4. If, if we can get to the Florida game, I think we will play well. All the pressure shifts to the 1 seed, especially with the idea of ending the streak of the two time champ. We keep that game close, and we will see what kind of moxy Florida has.
This team got what it deserved in this seeding. They did not earn any better or any worse. They will be lucky to get to the round of 32. I wish them the best. GO HUSKIES!
No and no.
It's worked out that we've worn white in all 6 of our NC games.
Florida was favored by 5.5 against Tennessee, we would be close to double digit dogs if not double digit.I think we can take Oklahoma as Fears is dar and away their best player and we can bottle up him like Dixon.
Florida is intriguing because Condon is not a match for Tarris and while Clayton Jr is their PG now he is not especially fast. They do not match up well Fagainst Liam and AK. And we are deeper…likely they are favored by 5-7
I mean, we're higher on the s-curve than Creighton...so I don't think it matters that Marquette is higher than us.
They're very good this year, and would definitely be the best team we've played this year (losing to Memphis hurts us again!).have people saying teams like Florida and Bama play a completely different sport than we do.
We'd be around 11 point underdogs against Florida based on the KenPom line. Maybe 10.5.Florida was favored by 5.5 against Tennessee, we would be close to double digit dogs if not double digit.

That’s my attitude as well, but if we’re playing after the sun goes down he’s probably going to complain about it. He’s very consistent, even when people point with Ramadan it’s much better for our players.Really? I love it. Get to enjoy Thursday and most of Friday before we play.
The higher the better as far I’m concerned. It’s just a number and can only help motivate us.We'd be around 11 point underdogs against Florida based on the KenPom line. Maybe 10.5.
I think we got seeded pretty fairly - you can argue we should have been a 7 but other than that, as an 8 we got pretty lucky. Oklahoma is quite beatable. Good start but 6-12 in the overrated SEC?? And they got a 9 seed - generous. If we want what we all want, we'll have to beat a team like Florida anyway, might as well get past them early. Not to get ahead of myself but does anyone have a gif of Donvan doing the gator chomp when we beat Florida a couple years ago?
