    This Bracket is garbage

    Virginia should not be a 1 over Michigan State.

    Duke a 4? Lol. Total joke.

    St. Joe's got shafted.

    Oregon State a 7 seed?


    This committee had to have been drunk.

    Yeah Michigan State got snubbed.

    Also don't think Oregon should be a #1. I understand they won the Pac12 but Spartans have a more impressive resume in my opinion.

    UVA a #1 seed is a joke. Pitt and Cuse getting in is a joke. Cincy and Tulsa getting in is a joke. Laughing at all these ACC and AAC teams getting in.

    I agree T.

    Oregon St seeding is a joke. I think Lunardi had them as First 4 Out last week.

    Syracuse has won like 1 game in the last 5 games. Shouldn't have made it.

    Tulsa just got ran off the court by Memphis. Shouldn't have made it.

    Vandy sucked all year until the very end, and then lost to a Punter-less Tennessee team. Shouldn't have made it.

    ACC, Big 12, Big Ten and Pac 12 all got 7 teams each. That's 41% of the field. ACC should have only got 5 teams. Big Ten should have only got 6. Pac 12 should have only got 5. The Big 12 is probably the only conference that deserved 7.

    Yeah tons of questionable teams in the tourney... Oregon State, Michigan, Cincy, Tulsa, Cuse, Pitt... even USC and Texas Tech seem questionable choices to me...

    Yeah Syracuse a highly questionable inclusion. St. Mary's, San Diego State and Valpo all deserved more in my opinion.

    All three had 25+ wins.

    In Syracuse's defence though, I can't help but notice that they played a brutal schedule this year. Just seems counterintuitive to reward a team for playing a tough schedule and losing. Some teams can't help that they play in weaker conferences and are penalized for losing more than 2-3 games.

    All these teams should be home except Texas Tech. I'm OK with them being in the tourney. Big 12 was a tough conference.

    Yeah. You have a point. Didn't really get their ass beat though. Lost in OT to a good Northern Iowa team.

    KenPom has them as the #1 defence in the country. Guess that doesn't really mean much. They played very well though. Only got beat real bad once all year. Lost a ton of very close games. I know they shouldn't be rewarded for losing but they are a deceptively good team.

    Feel bad for Vandy as that is a brutal matchup for a play in game.

    You make a good point mo. If they win, they got ARI? What do think the line will be? I'll be in Vegas, hope to bet on them.

    Yeah they will get Zona. I think they could beat them too.

    My guess would be probably a 5.5 point line in Zona's favor. I would play Wichita in that case. 5.5 seems a little big but I think that line plays better for the books and public money. Line should probably be around 2.5/3

    Maybe even a pick.

    This is exactly what it's come to. They don't want Joe to be THE authority on this, they need to be. Becuase of that bs they try to get cute the past few years and look stupid. I actually thought that the team that they would insert that nobody else is talking about is Evansville. Not saying they should be in but thought Commitee might try that or some other cute bubble team.

    Yeah but it seems like the best teams never go to the finals. Will end up being some random fukkin 4 seeds or something.

    Kentucky wins the SEC tourny and beats A&M today yet A&M is a #3 seed and Kentucky is a #4 seed.

    Also, why is Duke seeded the same as Kentucky?

    I about spit out my beer when I saw that Tulsa got in and I have a rooting interest in Tulsa. I honestly didn't even think TU was in the discussion.

    Syracuse is a joke too.

    Kansas and UNC are the top two teams and they get the hardest regions.

    As an OU fan, OU got an extremely easy draw and gets to play in OKC. OU would have had a tougher path if they were in KU's #1 spot. Unreal how this thing can shake out.

    I'm not sold on Oregon either. Baylor could easily take them down. Hell, Baylor almost won in Eugene earlier in the year.
