Epoch/IL Bracketology: Men's Division I, Sixth Look

 

[OrangeXtreme]

vs Loyola (RPI 17)

Yale going to Albany.

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

Yes, please.

 

[orange79]

And only 2 flights

 

[OrangeXtreme]

And no Rutgers

 

[CreaseRat]

That's a dream bracket for me and have thought Albany would jumped ND after yesterday

 

[OrangeXtreme]

We could be National Champs and BigTen Champs at the same time.

Well, in 2003 the hoops team was National Champs and Big XII champs, so why not?

 

[Delmar]

I'd rather play Air Force than Loyola. Loyola is a tough #15 seed. Otherwise, bring it on.

Maybe they're giving ND the benefit of the doubt because of the injuries? They do that in bball. :noidea:

Apparently, wins and losses are a relatively undervalued statistic.

Phhht. Wins and losses? What do they tell you?

 

[Orangtiz]

Loyola and Spencer scare me a lot.

[CousCuse]

This team has one and done written all over it, sad to say.

4 home games for B1G. Seems like a lot. How about switching Hopkins and Duke?

Pat Spencer is no cake-walk.

 

[Delmar]

Pat Spencer is no cake-walk.

Absolutely. If Loyola is a 15 seed, they are the strongest 15 seed in tournament history. A second seed should grant you a challenging but manageable game to start the tourney. Air Force is a much more appropriate opponent.

We are going to have to beat 3 first rate teams to win the championship. Loyola would make it four.
