Selection Sunday-NCAA tournament thread

I have Duke losing it in my bracket. I'm assuming MSU wins. That makes cheering for it much easier.

 

I don't have anything yea or nay with Tom Izzo, but as a Duke victory would keep Sonya Curry in the tournament, ijag and I are aligned.

 

You're scoping moms, and I'm scoping players.

 

And that's a shame. But I feel people this year were cheering for the two vocal teams/players. I didn't find one person who doesn't like Ole Miss's Marshall Henderson, and I haven't found one person yet who isn't overjoyed with watching FCGU play.

 

I've always liked Izzo, and picking his teams to overachieve has served me well in the past. That matchup was the toughest to pick when I filled out my bracket.

I think whichever team wins that game will beat Louisville.

 

When you're the tournament's Cinderella team, you're going to get every benefit of the doubt. It's hard to call a No. 15 seed "arrogant" or whine that "all they do is dunk"...

 

Michigan plays Kansas, and will slaughter them.

 

Can't speak to La Salle but Florida Gulf Coast is in a perfect position to go to the Elite 8.

Outside of Oregon, the worst seeding was the Gators at 3. They haven't won a single close game and have a couple of really bad losses. Player-wise they're streaky without a dominant big man.

FGCU doesn't just have a puncher's chance. The could, potentially, beat Florida by 15 or more.

 

Perhaps, but it was shocking to find Ole Miss's Marshall Henderson as lovable by the masses as he was.

 

I'd say about half my Facebook feed.

Patently false. I'm not sure Louisville doesn't have a stinker left in it, but it won't come against either of those teams.

 

Is that your prediction, FGCU by 15 over the Gators?

 

I think Louisville has better talent than either of those teams, but I could see Coach K or Izzo outcoaching him.
