Florida might have to beat Houston in Houston to get to the Final 4

Auburn...enjoy the NIT or whatever it is you go from here

Both Lville and UCLA may not even have their best players available

Dent is UCLA's best player imo...he's been on a fukking tear last few weeks.

Is Brown injured again? Dude can't get right

That looks like a free ride to the F4 to me too.

But Wisky can be dangerous...They can easily hit 15 3s with 5 TOs and make the game difficult for any team. They could also lose R1...historically they don't get past R32

Gonzaga been frauds all year

Purdue is the weakest 2 seed, yes they just beat Mich, but I don't think michigan even cared about that game.

Arkansas lacks depth, but is hot

When Kaufman Ren feels like playing Purdue is a diff team

Another reminder with these seeds that conf tourneys do not matter at all

It matters for mid majors to get that auto bid or for teams like ole piss this year who were trying to get a spot but yeah beside that meh

Donovan Dent suffered a calf strain Saturday, he's really gonna be ready by Friday?

Yea I should have clarified I meant powers trying to maneuver up a seedline or two, they be having these brackets pretty much wrapped up a couple days prior

If Auburn makes the tournament, I am boycotting March Madness.

a team 12th in the sec and was 17-16 overall

All the hate Auburn was sending over Miami's way, if Miami won their tournament, Auburn probably would have gotten in. Another reminder that unnecessary hating isn't good.

From my/MSU perspective, I'd rather play Purdue than a Hurley-coached team, or Iowa State or Houston. If I'm a 1 seed, I'd rather play Purdue too. UConn has had struggles this year, but I'm never counting Hurley out.
