I'll be rooting against all SEC teams. Our resume last year was every bit as strong as that of Georgia and Texas this year, much less UNC -- yeah, I know they are not SEC. I even have to cheer for KU in the first round because of the shame of a farse

14 teams is stupid. I bet most will lose in the first or second round.

I mean even if there were 14 deserving teams the odds are most will lose in the first two rounds…

I don’t really feel qualified as a basketball watcher to second guess the committee’s choices, but I do feel qualified as a Cats fan to say we did nothing to warrant a bid this year or last year.

Oh no we don't. But Indiana and WV probably feel different

Incredibly disappointing. Being one game under .500 in your conference use to be a death nail. Tang needs to understand how to work the NET.

On another note, I just saw Self on the sports portion on the NBC news. Unshaven and face red as a beet. He apparently is taking his 7 seed seriously. It's good to see.

I hope Calipari beats his ass, I'm normally TSC but not this time.

Cal vs Self
Smarmageddon

Texas booted ingloriously. Kaluma just kept getting worse as the season went on.

Starting to see what a joke this was but it won't change a thing. I do love the crap out of it though.

Northwest Missouri coasts by Missouri. What tourney losers they are.

The Drake win was the highlight of Day 1 for me.
Found myself cheering for KU against Coach Cal and the SEC.
What happened to Hunter Dickinson? He is regressing every year.
The fact that Pitino is still allowed to coach just shows how rotten much of this has become.

Stirtz is very fun to watch

It won't happen, but... would be nice if McCollum parlays this into a better job and then Stirtz enters the portal and follows his heart to MHK.

I mean, it worked for Mayo/KU this year... why not us?

I can see the first half of this scenario happening. Iowa should have some interest.

Baylor and Miss State locked up in a good game at half. Need the Bears to bring it home in this battle of midlings in respective conferences.

Let's go Bears. Get these SEC scrubs out of the March Madness..

Baylor gets it done. Alabama less than impressive. SEC exposedd and proving to be so overrated. Look for St. Mary"s to beat Vandy.

The SEC has really good basketball this year, don't have to get worked up about it.

It's going to be Ben or his girlfriend then. Wherever Ben goes, even if it's Iowa City, it's going to take him even further away from his lady friend.

Vandy joins the growing SEC overflowing dumpster.

Florida (SEC) looks really good.

My pro Todd Golden posts from a few years back are looking really good. That Chongs knows his basketball.
