Scr***w the Irish

 

[Vowelguy]

Crap. Maryland as a 4.

 

[RadyLady]

UDEL is a 6 in Newark

 

[CTyankee]

DELAWARE IN OUR REGION!!!

 

[Vowelguy]

Kentucky again.

 

[CTyankee]

Oh yeah... KENTUCKY!!!

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Kentucky again.

Swell. I still have the scars from last year's game. At least until the last 8 minutes.

 

[meyers7]

Maryland and Kentucky, I'll take that.

 

[hoopsdiva]

In Storrs, we open vs Idaho. Vandy and St Joe's on the 8/9 line; Michigan st vs Marist (5/12); Maryland vs Quinnipiac (4/13)

In Newark Del.
Delaware/ WVU (6/11); North Carolina/Albay (3/14); Dayton/St Johns (7/10); Kentucky/Navy (2/15)

Interesting matches, some geography based, the EDD element, perhaps the Samarie element if we have a rematch w Kentucky.

Likely they will not see UConn....sadly

 

[UConnChapette]

Did we get the 1 seed? I assume so but no one specifically said

 

[ASweet3781]

Stupid boring matchups so far. Totally repetitive. Not interested in anything so far.

 

[BlueWhiteKid]

Looks like we get ND in the semi's...Can't Wait.

 

[UCONNfan1]

Seems to me that's pretty fair. Would have preferred Tennessee as the 3 seed. The committee seems determined to prevent the teams from meeting as Tennessee won't make it out of the elite 8.

 

[VAUConnFan]

It does not seem possible for the overall Number 1 seed, Baylor, to have an easier path than the one just offered to UConn.

yup

Easy? Maryland is the strongest 4 by far.

Maybe the NCAA wants UConn in the Final Four, or more precisely, UConn fans in New Orleans.

Idaho. We've never played them.

How is that?

Maryland is the only Sweet 16 opponent a 1 seed will face that spent the entire year in the top 10.

And Kentucky is very arguably the toughest 2 seed for us to deal with as they exert a tremendous amount of pressure on our guards, UConn's biggest weakness,

Crap. Maryland as a 4.

Whats wrong with that ??

Likely they will not see UConn....sadly

Heck.... Delaware might not even see UNC

 

[Vowelguy]

Norfolk looks like ND - duke - tenn

 

[calpedaler]

Looks like a good bracket for UConn to me.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Maryland?? Kentucky???

I dont see that as an easy walk! Maryland is physically tough and played us tough and last year Kentucky took us deep in the second half before we pulled away. I expect UCONN to win but I also am going to leave some respect for the #2 and #4 seeds. I think UNC will get knocked off by Kentucky or someone else.

 

[Vowelguy]

Whats wrong with that?

Md is strongest 4. And they are fearless.

 

[UCONNfan1]

They probably could have switched Georgia and Maryland, but it is what it is. I tend to agree - Maryland is probably the strongest of the 4 seeds.

 

[luckyhusky7]

Doesnt matter which bracket I think our team is rarring to go!!!

 

[Sargassoc]

Reminiscent of PSU and Kentucky last year. Brawls.

 

[Rb335]

Maryland is a STRONG 4, slightly concerning. Kentucky pressure is what is more worrisome to me. Otherwise, rather boring bracket thus far.

 

[Vowelguy]

Nd has to play at Iowa.
