I really don't care about the bubble teams. The field is horrible this year, if you can't make it then you just aren't good. I care about the seedings.

KRIT · 03-12-17, 04:35 PM

Nova cake walking into sweet 16. I'm not really high on Wisky, UVA or Florida.

Duke a #2, so UNC is safe as a #1.

unde0087 · 03-12-17, 04:36 PM

Duke a 2 and East region filled with ACC teams

KRIT · 03-12-17, 04:37 PM

LOL at South Carolina getting a #7 seed. They were horrible down the stretch and played in a terrible conference Marquette will beat them.

SMU will meet Duke in the sweet 16.

Seems like a kind of weak region outside of Duke, SMU and Nova.

DOM_Toretto · 03-12-17, 04:40 PM

Fukk Duke, always getting easy path. Weakest 3 seed probably, and weak ass 7/10 matchup

unde0087 · 03-12-17, 04:41 PM

knowing them Dom they will probably be downed in the first round

South Carolina hasn't lost to any bad teams...they grind games and are playing in Greenville, SC opening round

Beat Florida, Michigan, Syracuse so it's not like they're not capable

I think KenPom has them as a top defense

Not impressed. Cuse is a bubble team in a terrible field. Florida is solid but overrated due to playing in the SEC. Michigan was weak early in the year.

KRIT · 03-12-17, 04:48 PM

Great coaching matchup between Izzo and Larranaga.

I like chalk with KU to meet Purdue in the Sweet 16. Nevada against Iowa St should be good.

I love Ville, but one team I don't want to face right now is Michigan. If Ville can get by Michigan, I like them to win the region and get to the final four.

SEC was better this year than most seasons...I don't see how they're overrated

I guess we will find out

Rhode Island gunna beat Creighton

Agreed.

KRIT · 03-12-17, 04:55 PM

How did Minnesota get a #5 seed? Kind of surprising, I thought they'd be a #7-8 seed. Middle Tennessee St will beat them.

funnyb25 · 03-12-17, 04:55 PM

Middle Tenn St beats Minny

funnyb25 · 03-12-17, 04:57 PM

Wow! Dayton vs. Wichita....what a game

KRIT · 03-12-17, 04:58 PM

This bottom part of the South region is really good, I think the best I've seen so far. Wichita, Dayton, Kentucky, UCLA, and Cinci all great teams.

unde0087 · 03-12-17, 05:00 PM

Glamour bracket

chico2663 · 03-12-17, 05:01 PM

butler ,n c and uc in same bracket. Did they watch me make my bets? Villanova number 1 seed? Got beat twice by butler and they have to ply nc in the 16?

plus someone from fla is hurt

unde0087 · 03-12-17, 05:03 PM

Zags will be the first 1 seed to fall in the first round

chico2663 · 03-12-17, 05:05 PM

gonzaga getting easy ride

KRIT · 03-12-17, 05:06 PM

Gonzaga could get tested by WVU or ND.

KRIT · 03-12-17, 05:09 PM

Neither Maryland or X is very good. Toss up in that matchup.

chico2663 · 03-12-17, 05:10 PM

wonder if syracuse wishes they were still in the beast

Lol

Zags have a pretty easy path to elite 8

injuries and attitude hurt xavier. They had early designs of final four

If they face ND, they won't survive

funnyb25 · 03-12-17, 05:12 PM

Kentucky vs. Northern Kentucky

Florida St. vs. Florida Gulf Coast

expect some fans...

Agreed. I liked them early in the year, everything changed when they lost Sumner.

Zags can beat them. WVU could be a wildcard, they've never seen a team like that.

Longwood20 · 03-12-17, 05:13 PM

Nice Wisconsin pick dumb fuk

thetrinity · 03-12-17, 05:13 PM

Glad they left out Syracuse, although I'm shocked they did. Why even use RPI if they are put in the field

lol. they beat carolina 2 out of 3. and the reward is not only a 2 while unc gets the 1, but they get put in a bracket with villanova. If anyone hosed today, it was definitely duke...

KRIT · 03-12-17, 05:17 PM

Can someone explain to me how Minnesota got the #5 seed? I haven't watched them a ton, but I had them in as a #7 seed at best. Weirdly, they got screwed because they have to face Middle Tennessee St. So I guess it evened out.

DOM_Toretto · 03-12-17, 05:18 PM

Knee jerk reaction: Villanova over Florida State, kansas over kentucky, Kansas over nova finals

This idea that they are not good is really silly. Butler made two final fours playing in the Horizon league. You play who's in your conference and the Zags whooped ass out of conference as well.
