i have a terrible feeling we're going to be a #2, as long as they list us as a strong #2 i guess i won't be disappointed entirely

Irving says he might play in the NCAAs, Krzyzewski says "slow your roll, holmes"

[HeySeuss]

Add another trophy case. Regular season and tourney champs, now it's time to get the one that matters.

No need to make room since it can go in the spot that the Sugar Bowl trophy or the Big 10 Championship trophy was.

 

[jobber]

U of Richmond going to the Sweet 16. Va Tech stayin home

BELIEVE

 

[jakncoke]

ugh bring on the brackets already..

 

[jjasper]

Charles needs to throw out "MAKE YOUR FREE THROWS"

 

[Knux-Future]

Barkley and Kenny aren't going to work with Gumbel's boring self.

Barkley especially.

 

[SyNapSe]

"Can't Wait!" /bart scott for the brackets. In a one and done tourney matchups can make a more significant difference than seed level.

 

[jjasper]

Here we gooooooooooooo

 

[Kalnos]

Duke is a good team, but I still think ND is more deserving of the last 1.

 

[jakncoke]

Pitt got #1

 

[Elfforkusu]

Bracing for Illini NIT berth

 

[jakncoke]

wonder who getting #2's

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I think it could have gone either way, but with Duke winning the ACC Tournament, 30-4 record overall, I think they're deserving. The Big East teams in consideration neither won their tournament nor got to their championship game.

Of course, I'm a Duke fan, so clearly I'm biased.

 

[SyNapSe]

wonder who getting #2's

ND, UNC, Tejas, ? Purdue maybe? Kentucky finished really well. SDSU

 

[HeySeuss]

Nd, sdsu, unc, and maybe uconn?

 

[jakncoke]

It'll be interesting to see where UCONN get seeded.

 

[SyNapSe]

Georgia got a 10? wow..

 

[jjasper]

Man the bubble is collapsing in the first bracket.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Why does a 5/12 matchup have a play-in game according to CBS? That's some bullshit.

 

[bucknuticus]

WTF is this bracket, this bracket is tooough. So much for 1 overall meaning anything.

 

[Kalnos]

Damn. This region is intense! Bad draw for OSU.

 

[Knux-Future]

Joe Linardi is mad.

No more of that 98% bullshit.

 

[jakncoke]

CBS is going so much faster than espn...

 

[Outdoor Miner]

Clemson?

 

[bucknuticus]

CBS is going so much faster than espn...

Of course they are CBS is the one who releases them.

 

[SyNapSe]

WTF is this bracket, this bracket is tooough. So much for 1 overall meaning anything.

I think the top of your bracket is really easy. Kentucky maybe really tough but they are very young. Hard to predict how they'll play.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Clemson?

Pretty high on kenpom... but so are we, so I dunno

 

[HeySeuss]

Good matchups in the east bracket. Could be a bracket buster. Intersting matchup with UK/Princeton.

 

[Cubsfan23]

lmao @ uk

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Why does a 5/12 matchup have a play-in game according to CBS?

That's the new format. 68 teams. 8 teams play to get down to 64. 4 of those teams are the "last four in", 4 of those teams are low major automatic qualifiers.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

How the hell do we get a 12 seed play in game and Georgia is a 10 seed? We'd mop the floor with those clowns.

 

[jjasper]

Why does a 5/12 matchup have a play-in game according to CBS? That's some bullshit.

Because the 12 seeds that are playing are the last 4 at larges into the tournament.

 

[Talamius]

That is a strong bracket. Any of the top 4 seeds can win that bracket and Mason is a trap game.

 

[SyNapSe]

Wow Mich. got an 8!! It seems like the seeds are jumping around more than in previous years.

 

[pxleyes]

Michigan Tennessee is a hard pick.

 

[giga]

Georgia got in? At 10? Lol?

 

[SyNapSe]

Oof. Texas got the dread Oakland game. Someone was going to get it but that's a tough draw.

 

[jakncoke]

uconn with a 3

 

[Talamius]

Could Duke's bracket be any softer?

 

[bucknuticus]

Mizzou over cincy easy

 

[Seth C]

Georgia got in? At 10? Lol?

Apparently the SEC is amazing. Yet Kentucky only got a 4. You know, whatever.

Could Duke's bracket be any softer?

Like you couldn't have predicted that 3 months ago? haha

 

[jjasper]

Fuck I would have rather been a 10 seed.

Oh well at least they are playing in Charlotte so fans can drive and punish themselves.

 

[Kalnos]

Could Duke's bracket be any softer?

It's always soft.

UK got screwed pretty bad there, I thought they'd be a 3 or a 4 in an easier bracket. Cal hasn't performed well against Huggins.

I hope UL gets a 3. :<

 

[Outdoor Miner]

Could Duke's bracket be any softer?

Why shouldn't it be, they are the overall #1... oh wait...

 

[HeySeuss]

Duke might be in trouble in the second round. Michigan nearly beat Kansas and then Ohio St in consecutive games.

Of course, we could be in trouble against Nova in the second round too.

 

[ErasureAcer]

Man...some of these games look tough to predict....goodbye million dollars!

Anyhow, who is starting the yahoo bracket group/thread?

 

[Knux-Future]

Duke might be in trouble in the second round. Michigan nearly beat Kansas and then Ohio St in consecutive games.

Of course, we could be in trouble against Nova in the second round too.

Nova is going to get George Mason'd

 

[jakncoke]

so much info to process my brain is melting

 

[chuckddd]

Anyone gonna run a gaf-bracket challenge?
