NCAA Tournament Day 1 Thread (Merged)

[Tyler2Rings]

I picked Duke to lose before the Final 4 for this exact reason

Unfortunately they may be different. 40-pieced Illinois a month ago

 

[HuskyHawk]

Gonzaga out of the gate at 8-0

This BYU - VCU game is going to stay close all the way I think.

 

[NHUConnfan]

Zags throwing an early haymaker against Georgia.

Early news for ACC and SEC is not good.

 

[BugsyCT]

Clemson is a basket case right now.

 

[FLDawg16]

McnNeese State with some surprising cheerleader talent

Oooof ACC, terrible at football now (Florida St not very good, Clemson and Miami good but not dominant) and suddenly...

... bad at basketball?

 

[blkknight1]

The ACC was once a proud bball conference that sold it soul for football and the bill is coming.due.

 

[EnochRoot]

Wow. I get the 12 v 5 upset history, but Clemson flat-out sucks right now. Usually it’s a 12 that play a 5 toe to toe. This aint that.

Clemson isn't playing like they are the 12. They are playing like they are a 23. Like a team that didn't quite get into the NIT.

Actually, a no-baskets case.

Jeez. Clemson still stuck below 20 points and we're at the 15:00 mark of the second half. Ouchie. Meanwhile, Gonzaga is up 15-2 on Georgia. Hmm, I'm starting to wonder if uploading the entire SEC into the NCAA tournament was a mistake.

Louisiana chicks man, lots of southern belles

Clemson was suppose to be one of the few Kenpom adj top 25 overall offenses and defenses smh

 

[NHUConnfan]

Clemson isn't hustling. They look unprepared and unmotivated. It's a huge indictment on the coaching...no excuse to not be prepared.

 

[Marat]

Gonzaga looking good to start 15-2. SEC doesn't look so strong at the moment.

Speaking of Zags, some have forgotten about our win vs them in MSG earlier. That was a good win.

I might've picked both to the sweet 16 if they were in almost any other bracket.

 

[millertime7774]

Big East was severely underseeded vs. other top 5, especially ACC.

Ha, I saw the cameraman linger a bit too long! Or perhaps that was me. Nice!

Maybe in the CIAC!

Well it's not every top 25 in both team that wins it all, just one. (usually)

If they were playing Houston they'd have about five points right now.

 

[Hurleyman216]

The fact that this Georgia team beat Florida gives me a lot of hope, they don’t look good

 

[Mets1432]

Clemson is averaging less then a point per minute, in a basketball game, wtf is going on.

I was hoping they’d at least not get upset in the first round smh. Bracket about to take a huge hit before happy hour of day 1

Take out Duke and this year's ACC is a low major conference.
