March 12, 20232 yr Fuck yeah! Thursday evening tip is nice. And the second-round matchup with aggy lined up for a prime-time Sat slot will only fuel their conspiracy rage. And that'll make them choking against Penn State even more amazing. Let's goooooo...

Eagle / Spanarkel, Harlan / Bonner, Anderson / Jackson are the best of the crews, very solid. Jackson has really become a very good color guy. Grant Hill continues adds nothing to a broadcast. Harlan remains the best PXP guy in the business.
March 12, 20232 yr Vitale has Texas losing to Alabama in the final. Most everyone picking Texas to get the F4. Most have Miami beating Houston. Edited March 12, 20232 yr by The Ace of Aces
March 12, 20232 yr The majority of pundits are picking us to F4. Not that surprising but I don’t like that

CBK Fans Eh, I think this time around Duke might actually be peaking at the right time and has some matchups that should benefit them. Usually the pundits are just picking them Coach K and starting off the season ranked in/near the top-5 and basically held serve the whole season...which means now they'll just lose to Oral Roberts.

Under the radar this season, as much as Duke can be. They'll beat Purdue in the 2nd weekend. 7 minutes ago, HornOnTheBayou said: Wait, has this been announced or just some hunch you have?

March 13, 20232 yr Duke has one of the most talented teams in the country but they're also really young. All those FR are pretty much Sophomores now so it's not surprising they're playing better now. I wouldn't want to play Duke. Edited March 13, 20232 yr by Rickylovesweed

March 13, 20232 yr Almost all have UConn in the Final Four. Am I dumb thinking that Iona could beat them the first game??

March 13, 20232 yr wrt experts picking us to the final four: 1. A great Cinderella story with RT taking over, similar to the Michigan story many years ago. Steve Fischer, correct? 2. If you hadn't watched any college basketball all year, like me before the other day, and woke up and saw this wonderful defense, and a team that has solid rebounding and fairly consistent inside play as well, AND the team won by significant margins despite their guards not playing up to their potential.... ...This is obviously a final four team. We are a veteran team as well, correct? The potential is there. The bracket is there. Is the magic there? Why not Texas? The defense should never have a night off. Will we get the luck necessary to arrive in Houston? Nobody knows. I know one thing. Because of the togetherness, ability shown, and pure desire, on any given night, this team can beat any team. The reverse is true of course. The only game I would be surprised we lose is the first game. There is no dominant team to be concerned or worried about. Officials, now that is a different story! Never underestimate the refs ability to mess up a good situation. Luck and officials, those are the only things I am worried about.

March 13, 20232 yr How stupid the angst about seeding. Of course it’s not objective, were you born yesterday in a barn? The only thing that matters is winning, everything else is stuff and nonsense. Zero fucks about seeding, F4 predictions, optics , or whatever the fuck Shaka is up to. just win Edited March 13, 20232 yr by El Squared

March 13, 20232 yr Had to look it up. Only three times have we been seeded 2 or better. Final Four year obviously. I remembered Memphis game in the Elite 8 in 2008 as we were there. Couldn't remember the third. Was the 2006 when we faded hard against LSU in overtime in Atlanta. But not before Pittsnogle got Paulino'd in the Sweet 16. Here's to Kansas City. One more time...
March 13, 20232 yr They should've put Iowa State on the other side of our bracket. We shouldn't have to see them until the elite 8 at the earliest since we already had to play them twice.
