I like our half the of the bracket, and who knows what upsets there will be.

Oh no poor Kansas wont be in Kansas. Cry me a fucking river Seth.

So ASU wont be the play in game. Boooooo.

arizonawildcats · Post by **arizonawildcats** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 3:15 pm

All things considered, not a bad bracket. Bama is tough, but at least Louisville is a more neutral court than Kansas City would be.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 3:17 pm

It would be funny if CSM ends up playing Pitt.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 3:18 pm

I bet UCLA has Kansas as their 1.

Kansas got no favors.

Oh ASU is still the first 4! YES!

All is right with the world.

If UCLA plays the Zags you think Tommy will send Mark notes?

Having a hard time seeing what we gained by winning the Pac tourney (and beating ucla two out of three).

Apparently we were on the cusp of being a three seed if we had lost.

Love USC over Michigan State.

Captain Obvious · Post by **Captain Obvious** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 3:35 pm

Historically it has been considered bad luck when you draw Princeton in the first game of the NCAA tournament. Why am I not surprised it's our first opponent?

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 3:36 pm

East and West are loaded imo.

Trojans vs. Spartans. Homeric matchup.

That's crazy. It's like we had more to lose than gain this past week. For the record, we won our league tourney, beat ucla 2 out of 3, and went 9-2 vs. Q1, and we got shipped out of the west. ucla was 8-5 vs. Q1.

The West is so loaded that I wouldn't say UCLA won a prize.

Blame the team for not being focused vs Utah, wazzu at home, Stanford, and forgetting to defend anyone the whole game vs ASU

Would've been an easy #1 seed

For the record, you were right. The committee didn’t give a shit about geography when it came to the one seeds. I don’t know that UCLA would have been in the West if they win last night.

You're right, Rondae. But even with these losses, we're freaking 28-6 with as good a tourney resume as anyone in the country, and yet we narrowly avoided being a 3 seed? Whatevs.

Bring on Princeton.

Pete Carril is not coaching them. I don’t think they will be able to handle our bigs.

Well, I know what I'll be making time for Wednesday night: First Four matchup between Nevada and Arizona State - winner faces TCU.

The big snubs appear to be Rutgers and especially Clemson, who I don't believe was ever mentioned as "on the bubble." Clemson finishing 23-10 with a 14-6 ACC record.

Yep, I like playing on Thursday-Saturday. Hate waiting and watching.

UCLA #5 overall

Arizona #7 overall

Alabama is #1 overall - WTF are we matched with them!!! Marquette is #8 overall, and therefore should be with the #1!

Someone please explain this!!!

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 4:00 pm

How shocking no one on CBS thinks us or UCLA will make the Final 4.

Ok must have missed that. Thanks.
I guess it’s due to some stupid location crap.
