Everybody Calm Down. We Still Got This.

17.6 points and 9.3 boards a game despite facing constant double and triple teams all year long -- and while playing the year with Plantar Fascitis. If that's overrated, you have some unfathomable standards.

they lost a lot of games they shouldn't have

they lost a lot of games they shouldn't have

A lot? They lost seven total games -- two to a 1-seed, one to a 2-seed without their best player and three to 4-seeds. The only game they lost to a non-protected seed all year was against Illinois.

Nonetheless, I don't see how losing those games makes Sullinger overrated. Again, he literally draws a double and sometimes triple team almost everytime he touches the ball. I'd like to see 99.9% of post players in America put up his numbers while having to face that kind of attention every time he touches it.

I think the prospects for that team is not really about him, but about his supporting cast. He is the only show on that squad, & that might not be enough to go deep in the Tourney.

Game in 49 hours... Any stragglers want to jump on the wagon?
