Pretty interesting. Each of the last 15 NCAA Champions have had at least 9 Quad 1 wins. 5 teams have at least that many this year.

I think we have a legit shot at winning at all. This team has a lot of tough games under its belt.

I hope you’re right, of course, but I’m worried about Cam’s injuries and what effect that could have. It was obvious that he wasn’t himself last night even before the play that he got hurt on again. Hoping he heals quickly because we obviously need him to make a serious run.

Useless TBS with the audio out of sync. Why is sports on this damn channel?

 

[war-blue]

TBS ruined the show.

 

[toophly1124]

This is painful.

 

[uncboy10]

GUYS WE MADE IT

Lol

 

[uncboy10]

Oklahoma over ND and OK St is just silly

 

[coolwaterunc]

Get to the matchups. WTF are they doing? Listing teams ruins the suspense.

It's a crime. Oklahoma is awful.

 

[ohio tarheels]

Oklahoma over ND and OK St is just silly

I don’t care what they say but it’s only because of Trey Young

They did this bc people leaking the teams out last year.

18 of our 31 regular season games against tourney teams. 22 of 35 overall.

Still a dumb way of doing it. Not everyone saw the leak last year. I sure didn't.

I agree. But I’d venture to guess the majority of people interested in this saw the leaks last year. All over Twitter.

 

[uncboy10]

Not the east.... not the east... not the east...

 

[uncboy10]

Dodged a bullet there. I bet Purdue doesn't make it out of the first weekend

 

[TarHeelMark]

we're gonna be in KU's bracket... you know that we will

 

[toophly1124]

So either Midwest w Kansas or the West w Xavier.

 

[coryfly]

we're gonna be in KU's bracket... you know that we will

We should be in Xavier's bracket as the top 2 seed but you are probably right.

 

[uncboy10]

Clemson will beat auburn IMO

 

[uncboy10]

HEEL YEAH.

Have fun with that bracket dookies

 

[TarHeelMark]

oh wow... I think you're right.

 

[coolwaterunc]

Holy shit they put Duke with Kansas and Michigan State. I am shocked.

 

[toophly1124]

I couldn’t be more pleased right now.

 

[uncboy10]

We've got it made as long as we bring the A game

 

[coryfly]

Hate playing Lipscomb first round as I live in Tennessee but like the draw overall.

 

[coolwaterunc]

LOVE this bracket. Let's do it.

 

[TarHeelMark]

Friday in Charlotte...

 

[grillheel]

Villanova got a really tough draw I thought.

 

[uncboy10]

Too bad tickets start at 200 bucks plus fees

 

[TarHeelMark]

Davidson knocked Notre Dame off the bubble... haha

I was about to check on that, but no thanks. Too rich for my budget.

Cmon mark! Let’s make a road trip!

I'd love to brother, but the wifey is in the middle of a career change (and job searching); so the budget is kinda tight right now.

Know anyone that's hiring .net developers? LOL

 

[coolwaterunc]

This dude from the selection committee stumbling through the question regarding Oklahoma. Dude, just say it's because of Trae Young. We all know that's why.

 

[strummingram]

Well, I think we got a pretty favorable bracket. We've already beaten Ohio State. Of all the #1 seeds, I'd rather have to face Xavier.

We have Gonzaga in our bracket... might be a pay-back incentive.

But, we have to beat Lipscomb first.

I have to decide if I wanna take a drive to Charlotte

 

[ticket2ride04]

My wife is an Aggie. Could be an interesting opening round. She’s also a from San Antonio. If we make the FF again, we are going. Had free tickets last year but couldn’t make it. Still bitter about that.

We wouldn't get the Zags til the Elite 8 fortunately and they are much weaker than last season.

I'm headed out to Pitt to root on URI against Oklahoma and Duke.
