March 14, 201016 yr Selection Chair is dumb...said WVU was in mix for #1, then clearly should be in Syracuse or Duke bracket since they are 3&4 over seed...I'd rather them be in UK's bracket b/c of their guard play, but logically it just doesn't make sense. Seemed to say Duke was a #1 win or lose today? Said Syracuse center getting hurt affected their seeding???
March 14, 201016 yr I'm curious though. Why did they fall off after the conference schedule started? Are they really that good. What did they do in OOC? They played 7 teams from power conferences OOC and went 6-1 including wins against MSU, PITT and UNC. They were wildly inconsistent over the last 2 months, but they have a boatload of talent. In those regards they are very similar to the UCLA team I mentioned...
March 14, 201016 yr The highest conference champion in Duke's bracket is Siena at #13 The brackets made it seem like the "s curve" was tossed and they played connect the dots...

The thing about Texas, they really have no point guard. I believe the white kid that was running the show was injured recently, but I'm not positive. Outside of that, I like the Cousins/Pittman match-up.

Outside of that, I like the Cousins/Pittman match-up. Balbay blew out his knee and is done for the year. They were still inconsistent before his injury, so you just never know what you'll get out of that team...

I guess we will see what team shows up. Texas has me nervous for sure. I think UK can handle Wisconsin though.
March 14, 201016 yr I think UK can handle Wisconsin though. Wisky is just a scheme issue. They are very deliberate, and if knocking down the 3 can make it quite interesting with the way UK likes to let opponents hang around...
March 14, 201016 yr Maryland/Houston should be a very good 1st round game... I agree Gonzaga vs FSU will be a great game too...
March 14, 201016 yr I don't get why everyone is so upset about Illinios... They lost 14 games. :thumb: MSU is the team that ultimatly got screwed. Flordia has no bussiness in this tourny...
