San Diego State
Creighton
Princeton
Florida Atlantic
Kansas State

Disu in a boot. That’s incredibly bad for Texas. That guy has been playing well recently

let's get texas bounced too. can't tsc a school that doesn't care about conference.

I'd love that to happen, doubtful

Then and Uconn out and it' sthe best shot you'll ever get

Yeah terrible overall.

I think UT is who I'd want to play the most out of the teams 9n the other side of the bracket

Crazy we should have beaten them twice. The ood Texas game is still most frustrating to me this season

UConn really playing like they're as good as kenpom thinks they are. Beat the absolute piss out of the mussbus. Played their entire rough ridin' bench for the third straight game. Keep an eye on that.

Damn, they aren't just the highest rated kenpom team left, they actually moved up to number one overall after the sweet sixteen. My basketball feelings are being heavily corroborated by science. If they win a 4th goddamned nc under a third coach in 25 years, eff all of that. Gross. That would be a terrible ending to this tournament.

The brown foam is getting frothy and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I forgot Calhoun won a third nc. I was pretty bruced out by that point tbf. Jesus Christ though possibly 5 in 25 years over three different coaches? After they tried to be a big boy state university and got left completely out in the cold. Shows how much could be possible at most power five schools.

Yes, losing the elite 8 is one of the most gut punching losses, especially for us in the last few tries, I want over that hump

catastrophe · « **Reply #3093 on:** March 25, 2023, 11:33:01 AM »

Last time we were in a similar place as FAU. Avoided the 1 seed, beat a 16 relatively easy, and then a surprise win over a really solid (and arguably underseeded) team. I was hopeful we’d get to the Final Four but not really expecting it.

This time I’m expecting it.

BIG APPLE CAT · « **Reply #3094 on:** March 25, 2023, 11:43:10 AM »

It is time for us to break through this wall. I’m not even sure Dax was alive last time we were in the F4. It’s time

For some dumb reason I always pictured Storrs, CT as being like right outside of NYC but it's about as isolated as you can get between Boston and DC which seems like it would be a disadvantage in the Big East

A terrible place to get to, even from Hartford. When I moved to Boston, I was shocked they play so many games 40 minutes away from campus.

The next 3.5 hours is going to feel like an eternity I just want them to tip the dang ball right now

MakeItRain · « **Reply #3099 on:** March 25, 2023, 09:43:23 PM »

I'm going to dull the pain of this by convincing myself that UConn would beat the ever loving crap out of us in the championship game and that would hurt infinitely more.
