Sweet 16 and Elite 8 (Mar. 27-30)

[Gamecockfan77]

Why NC State? Regardless of sport, South Carolina/NC State has been a good rivalry in the last 20 years or so.

I kind of agree.

When I was a kid, before the SEC, NC State and SC played regularly in sports and your football coach was a Gamecock.

You did cheat in 86 and end Todd
Ellis's career in 89. And knock us out of the men's tournament one time.

Carolina fans hate the acc because we left and Clemson didn't and there has been about 50 years worth of myth and excuse
making centered on that.

Fixed it for you.

I was a youngster when Todd Ellis was setting high school records over at Page High School. #9 Didnt get to see much South Carolina football on TV at that time... they did show his highlights though. Always wanted him to do well down in college.

First glance predictions without overanalyzing:

Uconn over Iowa in a close hard fought game. I think Clark gets hers and Iowa hangs tough but ultimately loses by 5-10.

Baylor over Michigan relatively easily. Michigan looked good vs Tennessee but Baylor is really tough defensively and I dont see the Browns scoring as easily this game.

Nc State eeks out a win vs Indiana. I could see this going either way. Cunane vs Holmes will be fun to watch.

Texas A&M holds off Arizona by 5-10. They played rough basketball the first 2 rounds but regroup. Arizona hasn't exactly been lighting it up themselves lately.

South Carolina rolls.

Stanford rolls.

Oregon upsets Louisville. Prince is playing at a high level and I think Graves gets Oregon to its 4th straight Elite 8.

Maryland slaughters Texas. Texas plays good defense but Maryland wins easily and slows down Collier, further establishing the overrated narrative.

Your prediction for today’s games were off. Better luck tomorrow

The only surprises to me today was how close the Michigan/Baylor game was and Indiana’s performance. Big 10 has had some terrific showings in this tournament. They have been impressive to me.

iowa/uconn went how I thought. Iowa played hard but UCONN had a better overall team with a superior defense and rebounding.
