Selection Show Thread

That south bracket is freakin loaded....not even annoyed we didn't get Louisville

 

[TortElvisII]

Vandy is in.......justice has been served.

Not for long![cheers]

 

[onearmedjesus]

KU is on to the Final Four - I don't see anyone there (over than a Miami team playing out of their minds) beating them.

 

[Goingfor9]

That's a nice a path for Kansas. Villanova Miami cal. Those aren't great schools.

They may not get through Maryland or cal

 

[fisherscat]

Would love to play in Louisville but thats a tough region

 

[Aike]

@Friedas_Boss - come on off that ledge now.

 

[deplion_rivals116063]

Just give us a 2 other than MSU, and I'm happy.

 

[TortElvisII]

Arizona vs Cal in Louisville.

 

[_ukcat]

Miami wins the South

 

[Reber3]

Candy limps in to Dayton for a one and done [laughing]

Kansas with the number 1 overall seed and not in the region closest to them? This is already messed up.

 

[king of cali]

Off topic...I like the 30 minute selection show better. Dragging this out 2 hours is dumb. Just announce what the brackets are and get on with it.

 

[mhroe1984]

4 seed in the East is what I'm thinking. We'll have to play Carolina to get the Elite 8.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

That south bracket is freakin loaded....not even annoyed we didn't get Louisville

 

[SpensBRJ]

Bilas said they other day that 60% of the committee has nothing to do with basketball..... that's always a positive

 

[55YardLine]

How the hell is Vandy in????

It was the only way to keep us out. You have to laugh at this point, but it's our fault. Don't lose to UGAX3, Bama, Mizzou, and UT.

 

[clew84]

Committee loving the PAC12 this year.

 

[howercat]

ky should have been the 3 in south. Miami got ky's spot.

 

[Untouchables22]

Please put us with Virginia and not UNC

 

[CatPhight_rivals65113]

Cal at a 4 seed going to the south nullifies the 1-4 seeding by geography argument

 

[EnglandWildcat]

You have to factor all the teams on a line tho. Wait till the seed list is released and you'll see why everyone went to the locations they went to

I understand that.


And I will stand by my other statement that the committee does not follow its own internal logic. That has already been evidenced by where they placed the one seeds.

 

[YouKay]

Vandy and Wichita State could be one of the best games in the entire tournament.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

half the people are saying the South is loaded and the other half is saying KU got a cakewalk lol

 

[JasonS.]

Just give us a 2 other than MSU, and I'm happy.

MSU goes West I'd guess?

 

[KYExtemper]

Based on what we've seen I wouldn't be shocked for us to draw a #5.

 

[bthaunert]

The perspectives on here are so funny:

"The South is loaded"
"KU got a cakewalk to the Final Four"

 

[Icecoldbrewdoggy]

Lunardi laughing at the boost in ratings he got from UK fans. I wish the bracetology trash would stop showing up here.

 

[TheDude73]

Arizona vs Cal in Louisville.

Place will be 2/3 empty.

 

[crazymg]

A #3 seed in East????

 

[ZakkW]

Good gosh, this is interminably excruciating

 

[Crawfords Corner]

@Friedas_Boss - come on off that ledge now.

Or don't.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

Lundardi almost had a complete whiff on the South regional.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

I understand that.


And I will stand by my other statement that the committee does not follow its own internal logic. That has already been evidenced by where they placed the one seeds.

How so. KU was overall 1 and the difference between Chicago and Louisville really wasn't that large so they could have been sent to either one.

 

[Bluest Member]

Some ACC Bias in this years Selection Committee

 

[UKcats#1]

I'm glad Vandy made it. I hope they win the play in game

 

[andreIGUODOLLAsigns4UK]

Just give us a 2 other than MSU, and I'm happy.

Well. Knowing the selection committee like I do. You're going to be very disappointed. I guarantee we have by far the toughest road of all the teams as top 4 seeds. It's like that every year.

 

[fisherscat]

Maryland as 5 and Arizona as 6. Tough region

 

[EnglandWildcat]

Cal at a 4 seed going to the south nullifies the 1-4 seeding by geography argument

Exactly.

And this is why the seeding process is so maddening. There is never any consistent logic. They might as well draw teams out a hat by seed. Geography obviously does not take priority like they claim it does.

 

[YouKay]

Hoping for East region! I have tickets!

 

[RoyKent]

CBS is really shitting their paints with his show.

So freaking awful. What a load of crap

they said UNC was #1 Overall
