Ghost of Lute.
2 teams at the top we’ve already played.
Caleb vs his old school?

Actually, I'm with azcat49 on this.
This is as favorable of a path to the S16 we've had in recent years, and we know that we are among the best teams in the country when playing well. If our guys show up, we should get to the second weekend.

It's a shame Wazzu got fucked in their last year in a power conference. Honestly don't get why the committee is shitting on them so bad. Sweeping us means nothing?!

One of best draws we’ve had in awhile - let’s hope the good AZ team shows up and we’ve got a good chance to go deep!

Sure looks like the committee rewarded us for our OOC schedule and then they busted on Iowa St for their easy schedule.
How about UConn having to go through FAU then the SEC champs then the Big 12 champs if it goes chalk

I'm deciding how much I want to put down on Long Beach State. I regret not doing the same last year with Princeton. Could have really cleaned up. Take my winnings and buy more Bitcoin. Or wait for a market crash and buy the dip.

A #2 seed means we are deemed to be one of the best eight teams in the country. Making the. Elite Eight will be meeting expectations. A Final Four, or better, and we exceed expectations. A sweet sixteen, or less, means we have not played up to expectations. Let the games begin.

You're a cool guy Beach Cat so I'll come clean. I'm a North Carolina fan but I do root for U of A as well. ASU? Not a chance. Can't stand them. I did my undergrad at UNC so you can't blame me. U of A just annoys me because they're always good but they always seem to fall flat this time of year. Honestly I'd love to see U of A get to the Final Four or beyond. That's any year.

Easy path:
Best coach in the history of the tournament possibly in round 2.
The best 5-seed and, of lesser import, if not the best 12-seed #2 behind McNeese St, in round 3.
Leaving Arizona aside, Clemson is the best 6- in the field, Alabama has the best offense in the country (tho admittedly maybe the worst defense in the tournament lol), and Baylor finished behind only Houston and Iowa St in the B12.
Seems legit to me.

You don’t understand?
There are 2 possible opponents for UNC round 2, one of whom is coached by the best NCAAT coach in history, as measured by performance according to seed expectation.

Would have preferred Purdue. I think we can hang with their guards better than we did earlier. UNC will be a particularly difficult match up at center who can shoot from the outside. Also know how tough Houston can be but they are really offensively challenged. UNC wont be slowing it down though.Beachcat97 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 3:30 pm I gotta say: I'd rather have UNC in our region than Purdue, UConn or Houston.

That is because I am new to the board and it’s my screwup. I thought Captain Obvious, a UNC fan, was saying the Heels could sleepwalk top the Final Four. Imo their route is not that easy, leaving Arizona completely out of it, so I responded accordingly.UAEebs86 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 5:45 pmHad no clue you were talking about UNC.
