Based off some single tournament losses in evenly matched games?

This guy Dickerson for Robert Morris would look good in maroon and white next year.

They'd have more time if they didn't dick around earlier for 3-4 seconds not fouling.

I wanted that to go in just for the sheer absurdity of the timing involved.

Bama plays really dumb at times.

Another dumb play. You can't catch the ball. Geez. You have to throw that inbound pass high in the air, let it bounce, or bounce it hard into the ground. Then when it comes down you punch it and pray.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough

Why did Baylor even defend there?

I'm just setting myself up for going from last place out of 50 through round 1 to rocketing into 1st with my elite late round picks. Yup that's it!

They need to fix that whole sequence though. There is not enough time to possess the ball, call timeout, and the ref react to you calling timeout in .3 seconds. The game should have been over then.

Though I do think they got hosed out of about a second because that airball might have hit the end line.

But they also cost themselves like ten seconds.

Because you throw the ball about 20 feet in the air, you let it bounce, and when it lands, it's soft like a jump ball. You could conceivably hit it like a volleyball set from half court. Token resistance isn't a bad play.

The Baylor vs Mississippi State had a bizarre ending with a timeout called with 0.3 seconds left.

I suppose. Guess I feel like the risk of doing something dumb outweighs the chance of the opponent getting something effective off there. IDK.

Because tu lost the play in, Mizzou was overrated to begin with and MSU as an 8 lost to a good 9?

Or did you think all 14 SEC teams were going to make the Final Four?

ETA: Forgot about Georgia, but they were pretty meh too.

Nah Pat was trying to bail out Mizzou but couldn't get it done.

I haven't seed Doug Shows yet.

My losses so far:
- 8 Louisville
- 12 UC San Diego
- 6 Missouri
- 7 Kansas
- 8 Miss St
- 11 VCU
- 5 Clemson
- 10 Utah State

Colorado St not looking good.

Gonzaga over Georgia is really my only correct pick that helped me at all versus the rest of the pack.

Bad process or just unlucky?

I've only missed on VCU and the wishful thinking pick of UCSD beating meatchickin.

Vandy vs St Mary's is another interesting style matchup.

Seems like all the people generally thought there would be upsets. ANY upsets. Because all our memories of the tourney are the upsets. And media surrounding it asks: "what upsets will there be?" They don't ask: "will there even be upsets?"

Think I said this the other day or maybe yesterday but to me this bracket always screamed Sat/Sun chaos. I think the middle tier teams are really strong this year which means they're less likely to get upset but more likely to beat the 1s and 2s.

I think you might be right. But a lower seeded Arkansas or North Carolina making a deep run isn't the same as Florida Gulf Coast or St. Peters making a run. I would argue its not even the same as UMBC or Abilene Christian winning a single first round game.

I wonder if NIL+free transfers will make this routine from here on out. Where thursday/friday is just chalk all the way.
bobinator

Nah, not every year. And today's not done yet.

I don't know whose going to win but I'm absolutely certain that playing Ole Miss is going to really annoy North Carolina.

Chris Beard vs Hubert Davis has to be one of the biggest coaching mismatches of the tournament.

I don't know what that means, but this is the UNC I've watched all season.

How Elliot Cadeau was ever a 5 star recruit is baffling. He can't even make layups during pre-game, and he complements it with average quickness.

Jackson is a big-time player, though.

They're just playing soft. Can't do that against Ole Miss.

And missed 4 layups and 2 front ends by an 87% shooter. Actually played better defense the last 8 minutes, but did zero with it on the other end.

No. 1 Duke dominated No. 16 Mount St. Mary's from start to finish for a 93-49 trouncing. Duke's 44-point win is their 3rd largest margin of victory in an NCAA tournament game.

They did and now they are blowing it. I have a 3 team parlay in the works Colorado St, Ole Miss, Vandy at 10:1 odds and also Ole Miss, Vandy, and New Mexico at 14:1 odds.

Get it together Commodores!

ETA: They are 74.7% as a team from the line. Can't be missing front ends.
