2016 NCAA Tournament

[soccer10k]

Ninth win by a double-digit seed this year, most since 2012, which also had 9. I went back a ways and couldn't find a year with 10 double digit seeds winning.

Typically 2-3 of them win the title every year

Upsets that I like:

SF Austin over WVU

Hawaii over Cal

Wichita State/Vandy over Arizona

Yale over Baylor

VCU over Oregon State

Yep.

 

Kansas-Oklahoma-UNC-Michigan State final four.

Nope.

Is it just my perception, or does Notre Dame typically underperform their seed?

In the last 10 years they've lived up to their seed twice, and underperformed their seed 5 times, all 5 times losing to double digit seeds.

Nice possession, Michigan. Plenty of time to go for a quick 2 and foul and instead you burn most of the clock and take a long 3.

Everyone wants to be the next Trey Burke

 

Overall Michigan played fine defensively. ND just hit a crapload of jump shots and Michigan went stagnat offensively for too long which is their thing. Was hoping that this wouldn't happen against such a statistically poor defensive team but oh well.

 

It just sucks that we would have had a decent shot at getting to the sweet 16 against SFA which would be fantastic for a team that was dead in the water 2 weeks ago.

Big 12 really showing how it's the best conference. Will any team make it to the second weekend?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Damn

[CubInOK]

OMG NORTHERN IOWA

 

Everybody wanna be Curry nowadays.

[soccer10k]

Northern Iowa-Texas was a ton of fun also.

 

Cincy-St. Joes going down to the wire.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Hell of a way to wind down a long day of games.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Shouldn't have dunked that

[soccer10k]

Took two days but we're finally getting some good endings.

 

Cincinnati dude should have gone for the layup instead of the dunk. Would have gotten rid of the ball quicker.

Somebody tell me that Ellis dude from Cincinnati is a giant prick or something so I feel less bad for him

He is a basketball player for Cincinnati, so it's a pretty easy assumption. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/7946562/cincinnati-bearcats-dismiss-freshman-octavius-ellis

OG Anunoby is the difference in this team in the 2nd half of the season. Hustle, defense, rebounding, versatility, ability to knock down an open shot. Wouldn't even be on the floor if not for the Blackmon injury. Reminds me so much of a young Oladipo.

[sneakypower]

just tuning in to the UK-IU game

 

have the announcers remarked yet that this is Calipari's best job of coaching to date, pretending like he doesn't play a full lineup of 5-stars

[raw]

HOO HOO HOO HOOSIERS! Good win. One of the few I called on my bracket! WOOOOOOOO!

[snoodmonger]

We're bricking balls so badly, the caroms are starting run-outs for UConn.
