And the 5 seeds are not that scary this year if the SEC trio stays on the 4 line
Previous Message
I feel like this is much easier to project this year, and particularly because the SEC, Big 12, and Big East have 11 of the 16 teams
Midwest
Purdue
Marquette
Kansas
Auburn
East
UConn
Iowa State
Duke
Kentucky
South
Houston
North Carolina
Creighton

Tennessee

BYU goes the last 5:47 with 0 FG’s and only 2 points total (on free throws)*

OB25

Also I only turned this game on 10 minutes ago, but the offense is quite gross*

I’ll probably be wrong, but I’m not a huge believer in the B12 this tournament season. I’ve seen

All it says is that her shooting % was higher

jdl

basically if there was no 3 point line, and she took the same amount of shots

voiceofreason
March 6, 2024, 20:07:49

Iowa and Michigan State seem like the most likely 7 seeds*

Correct. 2 seed it is*

-
OWWDig
March 6, 2024, 19:51:02
Yes, but only because I’d rather have the 9pm game on the 15th and not the 6:30 game.*

Central? Oof, 9pm is late for me*

No, Eastern. The rest of you unwashed masses can do the math.

Also, it seems that Iowa Men’s and Women’s basketball have traded roles this year.*
-

That will really resonate with the fans so they show up. Good job, Pat.*

McCaffery himself has been pretty bad all year, with the exception of a couple games*

Pretty good, I'd say. I think we're teetering the 4/5 line as it is.

Ha, 23 seconds. Good breakdown. In that case, I want to avoid UK and Auburn the most of those 4.*

I'm hoping the other three SEC teams are all on the 4 line
-

March 6, 2024, 17:05:06
They’d certainly continue the trend of getting a kenpom vastly underseeded opponent *

No interest in Auburn. Bring on the other three.

MSU is -9.5 tonight v. Northwestern. I know Northwestern is banged up

I know MSU is rated well, but they can't lose too many more games either.

NW has a rough road ahead. Tough injury losses.

Much respect to Collins. Buie is incredible, but that is nowhere close to the third most talented
