Bracket Show

[Briancuse]

Rutgers should be in the nit.

 

[cto]

Virginia Tech got screwed. Champ of P5 conference coming on strong ... did not deserve an 11 seed

 

[sufandu]

Shows how close we could have been

How did the B1G compare to the ACC this year?

 

[longislandcuse]

With games in Greenville, SC, Duke as a 2 was never in doubt.

I’ll be at the games on Friday. Should be fun with Duke, Auburn and Davidson in driving distance, plus MSU in the bracket.

 

[Cusefan0307]

I don’t feel bad for Buzz at all.

 

[kcsu]

Cannot believe that aTm is out. They were gonna be my sleeper team

Me too. I really like them

 

[UpstateSM]

And A&M beat them head to head

The B1G will show they are overrated again.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Committee is an absolute joke. Go to wins above bubble or something because this seems to get worse as time goes on. Just lazy.

Too much politics.

 

[jncuse]

LOL at them claiming to have 10 contingencies for today. They probably had some junior staffer working on the contingencies while they were doing some lines off hookers. They then said screw it.

 

[UpstateSM]

Too much politics.

NET is worse than RPI, too. Not transparent about the formula and clearly favors P5s over mid-majors.

 

[jncuse]

I didn't think they did a terrible job based on the precedent they had set in prior year.
Certainly I would like more mid-majors then middling P5 schools but that is the way it always is.

They pretty much lock teams in before the Big10 final every year.

Duke as a #2 was a joke, but its the same old crap for Duke.

It was a bad job by the committee. Hopefully that charade goes out the door when K retires. I have my champagne on ice.

 

[kirbivore]

BS Mr. Turkey neck. You just slid Richmond in and took another team out.

 

[rocfan44]

Personally think Bryant deserved at least a 15.

 

[Alsacs]

South Dakota State over Providence first round upset.

 

[jncuse]

Not sure if NET is worse or not. Could be, Certainly agree that it is not transparent.
I think they just ignore them if they are high for mid-majors -- just like the past.

[rhcuse]

Eph aTm. I remember when they beat Gmac in the tourney and that smug little punk they had.


Although I do like Buzz

 

[jncuse]

Personally think Bryant deserved at least a 15.

Their metrics were pretty clear of that of a 16 and a play in. I worked on the 16 line earlier today.
They had the second worse NET, the fourth worse KenPom, and no Q1 or Q2 wins to push them up

They are trending well though -- they might be a great pick in the "JN Cuse Make up a ****** NCAA Tournament Contrest Trophy".

 

[kirbivore]

Please God someone beat Duke before the Final Four. This Coach K genuflecting will be nauseating.

PM me

South Dakota State over Providence first round upset.

I was thinking the same.

 

[CousCuse]

South Dakota State over Providence first round upset.

I keep agreeing with you on picks, maybe we're more alike than you would like to think.

 

[Cusefan0307]

I think this is the year Gonzaga finally gets it done.
