Selection Sunday-NCAA tournament thread

call it whatever you want, it's still a play-in game

 

anyway, i take the answer to my original question is no. i should probably go seek counseling now.

 

champ_kind must be a Tom Petty sock puppet.

 

I'm still pissed they count any game before the Round of 32 as an NCAA Tournament game.

Makes me very angry...

 

And get off my fucking lawn!

 

I thought that was hilarious. Then they got an almost-wide open shot attempt and Dykes quickly shut up.

 

when 60 out of 68 teams get a bye, it's not a round

 

What about when there were varying numbers between 32 and 64 teams in the tournament, and lots of teams got byes into the second round?

That said, I get the argument. Playing a team on the same seed line isn't quite the same as playing a team in the 64-team bracket. It might be technically correct to say A&T broke an NCAA losing streak, but that implies something that isn't there.

 

Kentucky is giving headline writers the night off. One and Done writes itself.

 

I'd go with "Back To School."

 

Assuming any of them have even been inside a classroom.

This is like when Duke loses ... Nothing like seeing a school that gets major slurpage from the big-boy analysts despite all evidence to the contrary, uh, go down.

 

I couldn't find anything without going through each school's history, and I don't feel like wasting time for that. It isn't the first time Kentucky has lost to an NEC school. They lost to LIU-Brooklyn ... in 1938-39.
