Kansas losing first round

 

[Scottobot]

we got screwed last year too, but Kansas lost in second round, and #3 Gonzaga beat ucla.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Have they announced the Final Four matchups?

 

[Hi-Low]

St. John's has 1 chance left.

 

[Palatine]

Iowa State won their tourney in Kansas City. They had a home crowd.

So we have the B12, B10 and SEC tourney winners...and 3 of the top 5 Kenpom...

Are they saying ISU is the LAST ranked 2 seed???? They were proj as a 1!

they don't follow s curve. all we know is they aren't the best 2 seed. probably #6 overall, and they couldn't be with purdue, and east was their next preferred site.

Creighton so annoying

Well let them annoy South Carolina right out of the tournament.

This is nothing short of disgusting. How does VA get in

 

[Tenspro2002]

St. John's has 1 chance left.

But not a play-in game. Are they a straight at-large? I have a hard time seeing it.

Why South Carolina

Why couldn't Iowa State be with Purdue?

 

[xclamations]

Big east player of the year probably not even going to be showcased lol

IAST beat Houston and Kansas so they are a legit 2 but I'd rather have them than an improved UNC with a bonafide star player. Not worried about Hurley v Pearl though it's a bit early for that matchup.

We should have drawn Tennessee/Arizona if the S-curve meant anything. I expect Kansas to take our Purdue if that matchup happens. I'm selling the entire B1G and the entire ACC outside of UNC Buying the top teams in the B12 and think Arizona is going to make a run because the pundits don't think it will happen and the West is going to be the weak region.

[CL82]

Why South Carolina

Isn't that their second game?

 

[Hi-Low]

not selected yet...meant one region to go

 

[BFieldHusky]

I'd also rather play Iowa St than Tennessee. Also, we are going to have a huge travel advantage if we get to Boston.

you mean isu couldnt be with houston? and isu would prefer the midwest over the east. there's no logic here you cant justify it.

Houston gets a weak and wounded Marquette as their #2.

It is crystal clear to me that these brackets were put together at least 24-48 hours ago, and they did not update them one iota based on the results yesterday.

They were smart enough to realize that calling Houston the #1 overall seed would be an absolute joke, so they gave us the title, but still gave us the second or third best bracket.

This is exactly what happened. Clown show

 

[Dibbie]

How is Auburn same seed as Dook and KU and lower than KY? More motivation ammo for Hurley

 

[uh-no]

Have they announced the Final Four matchups?

almost surely uconn-UNC, since UNC will be the last #1

 

[NoSpamHere]

Big East really being treated as a mid-major league given the also rans from other p6 teams already in.

 

[Vowelguy]

Have they announced the Final Four matchups?

UConn is 1 Houston 2 Purdue 3
So East v west / south v Midwest

 

[BGesus4]

Auburn has great computer numbers but hasn’t shown a lot of ability to reach top tier. Best wins are bama and south carolina at home. As others have said I much prefer them to Kentucky as a four.

 

[Greathusky]

Interesting that we have not seen Providence, Seton Hall, or St. John’s yet with one region to go. Someone’s gonna get pissed off.
