Creighton - Louisville in Lexington should be fun.

Can't believe this is an 8-9 matchup

two teams that got hosed on seeding

ACC did not get much respect and rightfully so

Creighton probably warranted the 7 over marquette and louisville couldve easily been seeded at a 7 instead of kansas for example but what do we know

They both should have been 1 spot higher

In reality though the acc is garbage. Both Clemson and Louisville don't have many wins vs field

High Point doing a good job of keeping pace with Purdue but Boilermakers are tough to beat when they are hitting their shots

NIL has reshaped college basketball. The experienced talented kid from the mid major no longer exists because he jumped in the portal last offseason and is getting paid at a P4/5 school. It’s still possible to catch a higher seed when they’re having a bad day, but IMO the Wild West days of the tournament may be over.

Relax.

The committee made it pretty clear with the exception of including UNC in the field that it did not respect the ACC body of work and it seems to be holding true through 3 halves of basketball for Louisville and Clemson

Seth Davis said High Point would beat Purdue. How'd that work out Seth? Can't stand that smug a-hole
I DONT LIKE SETH DAVIS BUT THEY ARE PAID TO MAKE BOLD PREDICTIONS FOR CLICKS AND RATINGS... I SAW SOME MORE RIDICULOUS UPSET PICKS and purdue has proven to be an underachiever in years past with the exception of last year

Will Wade can flat out coach. In the post-NIL world it doesn’t matter anymore that he used to pay players.
crazy to me that he was blackballed to a greater degree than chris beard

If I’m the McNeese coach next time, there’s a timeout, I’m yelling at my team.” We are better. We’re better. We’re better. We have better players and we are the better team. We’re better we’re better, we’re better. We are going to win this game.”
