Pandemonium at Piscataway. Great ending. I'm so jealous!!!

 

[690West]

There is no upset that will surprise me this year. I bet there isn’t a team in the nation with less than 5 losses headed to the tourney. Craziness

 

[cliftonparksufan]

That was a crazy finish. Just crazy.

Yup. Rutgers and Ron Harper Jr. will be the #1 story on ESPN.

 

[Briancuse]

Rutgers, UConn and the hall passed us by. And it sucks…

Wait what? Rutgers has the same record as us.

Pitt could be the worse team that Colgate loses to so far this year.
Joking? Not sure.

 

[jncuse]

Rutgers is done. The curse strikes again.

The reverse curse curse!

You’ve lost your mind. I’ll give you UConn…about 7-10 years ago, but Rutgers has done nada for decades now. One lucky half court heave doesn’t change that. Get a grip.

I'll take your bet, even if there is plenty of craziness.

I like one of the P12 teams having 4 losses or less - that conference is weak and Arizona and UCLA appear to be quite good.

Also Duke has a good chance in the ACC.

WIDE OPEN YEAR BABY JUST GOT TO GET INTO THE TOURNEY THEN WHO KNOWS

[hoopsupstate]

Pitt is going to give us problems because they have big, strong bodies.

Nah!!! It will probably be LeBron. Just because he is LeBron.

Possibly. People have been saying its wide open for a while and yet the title game ends up being #1 pretty much year after year recently.

In the last 6 years the final has been:
- 9 #1 seeds
- 1 #2 seed
- 2 #3 seeds

I doubt there has been a period in the history of the NCAA tournament that has had so many #1 seeds in the finals. (75% over 6 years, with not one 4 seed or below)

Probably the most wide open period was 2010-2014, when Butler made the finals twice, Kentucky made it as an 8 seed, and that school that we should not speak somehow won it all twice.

Tom.Brady will cough and get the lead story.

Rutgers lost to Lafayette. A team we beat by 34 points.

 

[jncuse]

Syracuse > Lafayette

Ergo

The following is Instant Ban worthy:

Pitt > Colgate
Colgate > Syracuse
Syracuse > Lafayette
Lafayette > Rutgers
Rutgers > Purdue
Ergo
Pitt > Purdue

Pitt is #1 in the country.

Holy hot take.

This Pitt-Colgate is a bit of a conundrum in terms of who to cheer for resume wise.

It's good for Colgate to keep winning.

At the same time we play Pitt twice, and we play the teams that will also play Pitt. So all our wins will go down a small tad if they lose which hurts our NET. So its good for the ACC that Pitt wins these type of games and don't suck more than completely suck level.

So it's a bit of a tie. In the end it comes down to its Pitt. Go Colgate.

Just need Colgate to win at least one of the next three to negate Pitt, then roll through the conference like last year (BU and Navy will be tough).
