Imagine this....A nightmare scenario. No, not your brackets being busted, that happens every year by the round of 32. No, the scenario I am talking about is where every team you can not stand makes the final four. What four teams are they?

For me, that would be...

1. Kentucky (even if Uconn beat them twice recently)
2. Duke (even if Uconn beat them twice since 99)
3. UNC (whoops, I edited out MSU and put UNC here instead but forgot to take out the blurb, sorry folks)
4. Lville beating MSU for the final spot because of these recent scandals.

Yes, a final four of Kentucky, Duke, Lville or MSU and UNC would just seem so gross.

What is your unappealing final four?

Edit: I would list BC but I am also talking about, you know, REALISTIC shots at the final four and we all know BC struggles to even get into the field or win even a game.

I think you nailed it.

Any final four that does not include UConn.
Of course. But what 4 teams are especially appalling?

There are some teams fans can stand more than others. For me, for example, Oregon was pretty cool to see in the FF or the year before Uconn won it, seeing Butler.

Well that was rather predictable.

BC
Syracuse
Providence
UConn

Why? Because we are irrelevant compared to them. We would be overshadowed.

We definitely need more Lavar Ball. Dude plays the heel so well.

Is that real? Who hates GT?

So the way I approached this was what would bring me the least amount of happiness in my day to day life.

My wife went to Georgia; if Georgia Tech succeeds at anything on the athletic field my life at home is miserable.

Who hates Georgia Tech, you ask?

Lots of people.

I've been to Georgia-Georgia Tech sporting events (Clean Old Fashioned Hate) and tech fans are a small group but ever so nasty.

Close but mine would sub Kentucky for Syracuse. Calipari vs Boeheim for me isn’t close. Calipari has been an obnoxious, slimy POS since UMass, and it has only gotten worse.

Pretty much everyone in the ACC and B1G annoys me, as does Kentucky, Kansas, any of the Ball brothers, Cincy and that leprechaun, most of the NBE honestly, wherever Slick Rick washes up at in a couple years

Beyond the usual suspects, Baylor & Oregon because their uniforms make my eyes hurt.
Arizona, because I think that Miller certainly deserves a Final Four but I don't want it to happen until we see how the recruiting scandals shakeout first. Same for USC.

In essence, I don't want these programs gaining any more on UConn until there's a better disposition regarding CR.

1. BCU
2. Syracuse
3. PC
4. Rutgers

2, 3, and 4 because their fans are annoying roaches whose numbers are only kept down by their lack of success. 1 because being in the final four might actually cause them to have fans.
