Selection Sunday-NCAA tournament thread

more practice and length at the top of the zone are big. but these damn kids today can't shoot. it isn't just teams syracuse played that haven't been able to score.

 

Indeed.

The Hoosiers were a very middling offensive team this season.

 

I'm in the 97.9th percentile at ESPN for a bracket I didn't put any money on that has Louisville beating Michigan with Syracuse also making it.

 

who the fuck is this reed cat of which you speak?

 

Yep . . . it was obvious from the body language all year that the chemistry on that team was less than zero. Pure poison. And at least some of that has to go on the coach.

 

I think this is my third straight year without picking a single Final Four team.

 

I had Louisville -- losing in the semis.

 

Had a fantastic bracket last year, but nothing special this time around . . . tough to isolate, when EVERY top team has at least one exploitable flaw.

 

I've clinched the bracket pool at my paper (a whopping $3 per bracket X 11 brackets = 33 whole dollars!). I'm the only one with two teams in the Final Four (Louisville, Syracuse). The other four brackets still alive all have Louisville. All five of us picked Louisville to win it all, so the order going into the Final Four can't change.

The person who was leading the pool going into the Sweet 16 lost seven of her 10 teams remaining before the Elite Eight and her other three during it.

We also had one person pick Southern to beat Gonzaga. Her bracket was all over the place. She just wanted to play and thought randomness wouldn't be any worse way to pick a bracket than any other.

 

Do my ears deceive me or has Clark Kellogg twice referred to a player's "valuetility?"

 

I have often wonder how Kellogg has kept his job given his inability to speak in complete sentences.

 

The last 10 minutes of this game have looked like a rugby match....
