March 17, 20196 yr In all likelihood, for the second time in three years, Texas will not be in the NCAA tournament, which is a travesty. Nevertheless, the show must go on. CBS is thankfully reverting back to the traditional bracket reveal instead of regarded alphabetical lists from last year. Not much bubble drama today, as all conference tourney finals are either in one-bid leagues with no further chances for thieves, or between power conference teams that are safely in the tournament. http://www.bracketmatrix.com/ http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology
March 17, 20196 yr I, for one, am bursting with excitement to see whether we can get a 1 seed in the NIT or if we will have to settle for a 2 seed 😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
March 17, 20196 yr absolutely LOVE Selection Sunday second favorite month behind October Edited March 17, 20196 yr by The Tower
March 17, 20196 yr Best day of the year. Even better with the players championship moved to this weekend. Great sports month from 3/11 - 4/11
March 17, 20196 yr Predictions: 1's: Duke, Virginia, Gonzaga, Michigan State 2's: North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan Last 4 in: Clemson, Belmont, TEXAS, oklahoma
March 17, 20196 yr Just now, Vince_McCoy_Williams said: Duke should cruise to the final four in that bracket tbh Duke would cruise in 3/4 of the brackets. They’re a damn solid team.
March 17, 20196 yr Author Tough seeding for MSU. Not only do they get a 2 seed, but they're rewarded with Duke's region.
March 17, 20196 yr MSU seeded as the weakest #2 seed - I call bullshit, but now back to celebrating the dual B1G championships. Fuck the committee
March 17, 20196 yr oklahoma being a 9 should be favorable for texas. the resumes are basically equal.
March 17, 20196 yr So Texas’ 8% outside chance snuffed out in the first four/ first region reveal? Nice.
March 17, 20196 yr Just now, Knoxtnhorn said: Sorry. If OU is 9 then Texas should be in. Lol this is the tourney committee we are talking about
March 17, 20196 yr Just now, BigOrange1 said: oklahoma being a 9 should be favorable for texas. the resumes are basically equal. This, I would be surprised if no Texas, probably gonna be an 11 seed in the play in
March 17, 20196 yr What a shit draw for K-State. Is there some kind of NCAA rule that we must be placed as close to Wisconsin in the bracket as possible? And why is a 4 seed having to play a 13 seed in the 13 seed's home state?
March 17, 20196 yr Just now, Knoxtnhorn said: OU 1-8 against Top 25. Texas 5-7. So basically the goal posts are moved again and it’s overall record not the resume. Win 19 and you are in.

March 17, 20196 yr Just now, BigOrange1 said: virginia/tennessee would be a tremendous regional final Virginia has to get by Garder-Webb first LOL

March 17, 20196 yr Just now, JustBecause said: Then we would be bounced pre-1st round. Nah, we will win and then extend Shaka for 5 more years
March 17, 20196 yr Just now, Jhawk said: Still two brackets to go but at some point you have to win games. .500 has never cut it before regardless of resume. i agree with you, but if texas doesn't get in the only reason is going to be the .500 winning % because all of the other metrics say they should be in. but it won't surprise me at all if the committee uses the .500 record as reasoning to keep them out.
March 17, 20196 yr 4 minutes ago, Rockethorn1978 said: So basically the goal posts are moved again and it’s overall record not the resume. Win 19 and you are in. Depends on the committee and what they value
March 17, 20196 yr 2 minutes ago, Jhawk said: Still two brackets to go but at some point you have to win games. .500 has never cut it before regardless of resume. True but a team woth a worse conference record gets a 9 seed with a weak schedule just because they won 19 games. I don’t disagree Texas has to win games they should have to get in.
March 17, 20196 yr 5 minutes ago, The_Great_Hornsby said: This, I would be surprised if no Texas, probably gonna be an 11 seed in the play in Weren’t the four play-in teams in the first region?

Hayes injury hurts Texas too.....
March 17, 20196 yr So far I think Bellmont to S16? Cincinatti is NOT a 7 seed, but got “rewarded” with being in Columbus.
