UVA the last #1?

 

[Plinko]

This is insane. Toughest region ever?

 

[Seth C]

Louisville is a #4?

Never had a chance at more than a 3. Anyone saying otherwise was a moron. Still haven't win a game against a good team (even Kentucky beat them).

And I got our seed wrong but I nailed it. Louisville and Kentucky on the same side with duke waiting on the other.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Midwest is ridiculous.

 

[Bowser]

Damn the Midwest is stacked

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Fuck me

 

[DominoKid]

goddamn the Midwest is raw.

 

[Seth C]

Kentucky going down to Kansas St. Mark it.

 

[jjasper]

We got in. Thank fucking god. Too bad it is in the first four.

 

[RellyRell28]

Yeah it looks like Green Bay's not in cause at this point they would be in the same bracket as Milwaukee and they haven't been announced yet.

 

[Mac the KNife]

Michigan stuck with Duke, thought we'd get them for sure.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

FUUuuuuck

3 potential #1 seeds in this regional. Plus the actual #1 seed. What the fuck is this shit?

 

[Plinko]

No way Wichita State comes out of that region.

Committee is taking a massive dump on non-power conferences here.

 

[TomShoe]

Midwest: The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Bracket.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

The committee was on one this year

 

[Gorillaz]

Witchta and their "cinderella" like season is bout to come to an end very soon

 

[RellyRell28]

Which pool of death is worse. Midwest region in the NCAA tourney or USA's pool in the World Cup

 

[ErnieMcCracken]

The East is going to look like a cakewalk after that.

 

[Bowser]

oh god if we get a potential Sweet 16 matchup with Michigan State in our mini bracket in the East. Roy got his own Marvin's Room in Izzo's head.

 

[BigWeather]

Wow, can't believe NCSU got in. Very happy. So they were either the second-to-last or last at-large chosen? Whew if so!

 

[jjasper]

Louisville at four makes no damn sense. I can't figure out how that happened. Is this the last year of this committees term? They have been beyond terrible.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

So UVA ends up getting Nova/Cincy? That fucking stupid!

 

[Fjordson]

Wow, fell all the way to an 8. Damn. Going to be tough for us to make it out of the first weekend.

And if we do manage to beat Kansas State, I can't wait for all the "youth vs. experience" talk when we play Wichita State :lol

 

[lazybones18]

nice of them to spoil UMass as a #6 seed while talking about Duke lol

 

[truly101]

how the fuck did Louisville get a 4 seed?

 

[thefro]

Which pool of death is worse. Midwest region in the NCAA tourney or USA's pool in the World Cup

The biggest issue for Wichita State I see is K-State or Kentucky are both going to have more fans in St. Louis than Wichita State.

Then in Indy they'll be a road team against Louisville or Michigan.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I think Florida goes to the elite 8.

 

[TomShoe]

UVA #1 WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

 

[Plinko]

Louisville at four makes no damn sense. I can't figure out how that happened. Is this the last year of this committees term? They have been beyond terrible.

Had to cram them into the Bracket of Insanity somehow. Gotta make sure those smaller schools can't make the Final Four.

 

[ErnieMcCracken]

Michigan State.

 

[thefro]

Had to cram them into the Bracket of Insanity somehow. Gotta make sure those smaller schools can't make the Final Four.

It seems to be setup to sell tickets. A lot more teams playing closer to home than normal (i.e. Xavier playing a play-in game at Dayton).

 

[Seth C]

Louisville at four makes no damn sense. I can't figure out how that happened. Is this the last year of this committees term? They have been beyond terrible.

Look around. Who is the best team they beat? Memphis wacked them...twice. Kentucky (an 8 seed) beat them. Basically they have no top 30 wins and several top 50 losses.

Memphis also an 8 see. So Louisville has 3 losses to 2 eight seeds. Making sense now?

There we go. The best team Louisville beat all year is a 5 seed, and they split with them.

 

[Plinko]

Michigan State looks like they have a real shot to come out of this region.

They're probably ecstatic they aren't in the ridiculous bracket.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

I think we can officially retire the DUKE ONLY GETS CAKEWALK BRACKETS myth

 

[Bulbo Urethral Baggins]

MSU!!!
This is the year Sparty

 

[Bowser]

So Carolina's a 6 seed then

 

[Fjordson]

I think we can officially retire the DUKE ONLY GETS CAKEWALK BRACKETS myth

Yeah, this bracket is brutal.

 

[inm8num2]

I think sometimes these seedings comes down more to matchups and spacing out the top 16 teams, rather than pure top-to-bottom ranking.

I don't necessarily agree with Louisville being a 4, though.

 

[Dragon]

Bahaha. I hope Nova beats the absolute shit out of ugotconned.

 

[jjasper]

6 teams from the A10? Going to crash and burn like the Mountain West?

 

[bucknuticus]

Man this is going to be a fun tourney.

Tournament is so much better when you have no expectations for your team and can just enjoy it.

 

[Mac the KNife]

Lot of conference tourney winners in the East.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

SMU

 

[Bowser]

Providence is gonna be a tough matchup

 

[darkside31337]

Damn those odds are stacked against Wichita. Conspiracy imo

They're going to overcome the odds though. Run the table. The authority can't keep them down.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

WOW.

ISU's gonna go to Final 4.

 

[inm8num2]

MSU!!!
This is the year Sparty

As long as UNC loses before MSU would face them.

 

[TomShoe]

Ooh, Southern Methodist got snubbed pretty badly.

Should've gotten in over NC State, IMO.

 

[DominoKid]

Providence?

 

[Plinko]

WOW.

ISU's gonna go to Final 4.

There are 9 teams in that region that have a real shot.
