They don't need him. They'll just break the drug dealer out of jail for the second half.

I have Bama going pretty far in my bracket.

That said, F*** Nate Oats and that entire team.

Is EVERY SINGLE lower seed going to win today?

I guess we can manufacture an upset from Clemson vs Iowa either way. Clemson is the lower seed but Iowa is the betting favorite.

This Tennessee and Miami OH game is highly disappointing. The building was all behind them, they started off hot, I have them in all sorts of pools plus a sizeable wager on them, and they are getting their drawers blown off by a pretty mid UT team. Sad.

HUGE upset? What are you talking about? It was an 8/9 game and one that many pundits had going to Utah state

That's all we have man! Believe in the cinderella run of an 9 beating an 8! Because there's nothing else.

NIL has liked the tournament. There can never be a good mid major 12-14 seed bc all the good players go to a power 4 school the next year if they play decently. Sucks for March madness.

I think UCLA has shot more mid range jumpers in 12 minutes than we did all season. Most of them have been falling so far, but weird to see a team taking primarily low percentage shots.

If no 13 seed or above wins this year, it might be curtains on the madness. It might be a new thing, but NOT madness. Doesn't look promising.


Why are 12 seeds from automatic one bid conferences like High Point, McNeese, Akron, and Northern Iowa any different than their 13 seed brethren Hofstra, Troy, Hawai'i, and Cal. Baptist?

It seems like an arbitrary line picked because High Point already had the upset.

Some exciting finishes but not that many upsets. Out of roughly 24 games so far, only 6 "worse" seeds (I still can't figure out whether you call a 10 over a 7 a lower or higher seed) have won, and that includes a couple of 9s over 8s, which they historically have a slight tournament edge over.

Maybe that will change tonight. Hopefully, this weekend.

Its a little arbitrary, but not completely.

First, The 1-4 seeds are the committee's expected Sweet 16. Just like the 1 seeds are the expected Final 4. In mid/late season, annually, the committee puts out a preview of the top 16 seeded 1-4 by region.

2nd, historically there's a MAJOR dropoff in winning percentage between the 12 and 13 seed. Its 15% which is HUGE.

Glad we didn't draw UCLA for the 7/10 game. Refs are more involved.

Pretty sure it was a crown! Got one that looks like that hidden away. Fell out teaching Geometry one day and freaked out a bunch of 10th graders.

UCF's 3PT% > 2PT% > FT%. That's got to be pretty rare.
