You setting one up this year @McCamish Maniacs ?

This year will be especially interesting since there are about 30 teams the NCAA will prohibit from playing due to being implicated in the FBI investigation.

Bring it on! I think Tennessee is a dark horse in the NCAA Tournament

For sure!

It amazes me that for 20 years Rick Barnes has kicked *** in the regular season only to let fans down in the tournament and people still have hope come tournament time.

People are excited up here in Tennessee winning the first SEC Championship in 10 years Tennessee will be in a good spot when Auburn and Coach Bruce Pearl get gutted by the NCAA very soon.

The updated Dance Card has FSU out and Louisville in (barely). That was before Middle Tennessee lost. I think our most optimistic hopes are not going to be fulfilled.

Does anyone normally set up a bracket for this group?

Yeah I thin MM did it the last two. I’m sure he’ll renew the thread when he activates it

FWIW, Davidson upset RI today taking another bid.
At this point I think it is unlikely either Syracuse or L'ville get a bid. Been more bid stealers than expected this year - with a stronger than usual bubble this year that means some solid teams are not getting in.

Notre Dame is a better team and has a better resume than Cuse. Notre Dame would get in before Cuse.

 

[KeystoneJacket]

Cuse made it somehow.

 

[crut]

HAHA what a joke that Cuse made it and Notre Dame and Louisville didn't.

 

[mstranahan]

Louisville had no prayer. NCAA is still trying to figure out how to punish them for what UNCheat did

 

[CuseJacket]

Cuse > Louisville

ND > Cuse

Imo.

Wrong comparisons though. I think other teams outside of the ACC have a stronger argument.

For what it's worth, and this is whether Syracuse is in or not, I think it'd be a hard precedent to set putting in ND. Slippery slope toward future teams resting marginally hurt players during the regular season (even though that was not what ND did this year).

 

[KeystoneJacket]

Chairman says Notre Dame was in and Davidson winning the A10 bumped them.

 

[Deleted member 2897]

Well freaking 9 ACC teams made it. That's good. No idea how Louisville didn't though: #33 KenPom, #36 RPI. 20-13. 0.500 record in the best basketball conference in the country. I mean, I guess they didn't make it because Virginia scored 8 points in the last 10 seconds against them? Seems like a crazy way to not make a tournament.

I hope most of them win for money purposes. Always hard to cheer for UNCheat and Rat Face though.

 

[lauraee]

Anyone else think Clemson is coming home early from San Diego? Do u think f$u will win even one game? I'm tired of them messing up my bracket. I think nc st beats bama.

The SEC Champion Auburn team drew a #4 seed.

I could be wrong, but there is 1 single PAC-12 team clear into the tournament - Arizona. Holy cow how pitiful. UCLA made a play-in game for the right to play Florida in the opening round. Wow.
