    I know you feel that way now but remember what my Grandmom used to say and you will feel better. "Bobby, whenever you are feeling blue remember that Orca Whales never rode on the subway without underwear "

    awful pick on purdue. And you were adamant about it lol two words... Zach Edey, smh. If anyone know anything about NCAA tournament, it's about guards play. You cant win this tournament with shit guards, period.

    Clearly.

    Pomeroy had FDU ranked 275 out of the 303 D1 teams
    Below my hometown crappy Fairfield team, they're #261
    That's pretty damn scraping the bottom of the barrel.

    Jeff Sagarin has FDU a tad higher at 268th rank.

    These rankings are useless for the tournament games. Anyone has a chance to win a game at the tournament. All you need to win is a couple bounces and calls go your way at the end of the game.

    I'm using those rankings to put things into perspective, not as a handicapping tool in this example.
    St. Peter's last year was like in the 180's, they made a deep run.

    that's updated. They were ranked even worse before beating Purdue.

    More stats:



    https://twitter.com/rodger/status/1636867295879233537
    .Purdue is ranked #1 in effective height on Kenpom. Fairleigh Dickinson is ranked #363 out of 363. Literal David v Goliath
    https://twitter.com/MattNorlander/st...01533622181888

    Fairleigh Dickinson was a 4-22 team last year that fired its coach and began the season ranked 355th at KenPom.

    We made history this year. First time a #9 seed has ever been a 15.5 point favorite in the NCAA tournament.

    He can make the same amount of money by playing overseas. Some team in Italy or China will give him a hefty contract.

    Rub some dirt on it JV, see you in the funny pages, and Johnny?
    Post early and often please.

    Not for nothing, I can't stress this enough, you're a good sport, and that counts for something.

    Yeah, I was noticing that today. Mentioned it in another thread.

    Every year there we see more and more extremes.
