2023-2024 College Basketball Thread

When are game times released?

 

Miss St not even winning the first round.

 

Game times in a few hours right?

 

lol they’re gonna rock yall.

 

Is this bullish Miss St discussion based on just the SEC tournament?

 

they currently 3 point underdogs. Go make yourself some money if you're that confident.

 

Auburn and Baker-Mazara vs his old team UCSD could be a fun 2nd round game

 

I’ll bet you moneyline rn

 

yeah not looking forward to that

 

Bet the farm on whoever plays Texas.

 

St John's (25)
Wake (31)
Nova (35)
Cincy (37)
Pitt (40)
OU (43)
IN St (45)
Ohio St (47)
Utah (50)

top-50 teams at KenPom not in the field

 

What are the lowest ranked non-auto bids?

 

UVA (69)
So Car (49)
Utah St (48)
Northwestern (46)
A&M (44)
Wazzu (42)
FAU (41)
Boise (39)
CSU (38)
Nevada (36)

as far as I can tell, most of the good wins piled up by MWC teams came against league foes....

 

That was what the committee chair pointed out about the MWC:

 

SDSU beat St Mary’s and Gonzaga.
Boise beat St Mary’s
CSU beat Colorado and Creighton
New Mexico didn’t beat anyone of note
Utah State didn’t beat anyone of note

 

Teams for me that could lose to anyone or beat anyone any given night, Bama and Illinois. Wild variance teams that are super efficient offensively and bad defensively. Kansas to me seems like they are going through the motions for the last month compared to teams of the past and will be a fade for me. Have heard Dusty May has been checked out for a month or so and has his eyes set on LVille. They will be a fade. I wanted to run to the books to fade MSU and Wisconsin until they both have had a bit of a resurgence of late. Will be fading the whole big ten, though.

 

Auburn got screwed because NCAA is Anti-Semitic

 

Saint Peter’s was the only other school to offer ZZ

 

What a beautiful sight

 

I have made my espn bracket and don’t plan on looking at it again. God speed, my child.

 

Considering Floridas seed they might have a point.

 

Why in the actual fuck are you following Dean?

 

It was retweeted into my timeline

 

Oh thank Heaven

 

I think Boise State should have been above first four. Maybe over FAU.

 

I loved buying it on Tuesday for the NFL and college football lines.

 

Also, I had a “bookie” who ran these betting sheets, more like cards you’d circle numbers at the bottom of the card that corresponded with the team. It was perforated and tear away. You’d initial it and put $ down you were betting. Minimum 4 team parlay. I can still remember the payouts.

 

the best, man that hits hard

Chicago Tribune always had an A+ tourney write up as well

 

I almost bought some a few weeks ago in case Nebraska played in Omaha…looking at the prices now, I might have made a few hundred bucks re-selling them. Damn.

 

seeing Virginia in the first four in a game that looks ideal for Indiana state makes me sad

 

(committee makes up specific matchups)

"YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS UP!"

 

Not specific to that edition but reading the stat page of the newspaper plus MLB box scores in the summer while eating breakfast brings back so many good memories.

 

Kids today will never know the joy.

 

YES! Looking at box scores and replaying the games in your head while mom was inside getting groceries after church on Sundays is a distinct memory for me.

 

My Fandom is for sell

 

And UAB. Seems rather odd.

 

Tell me about #Oregon Ducks as a team

 

Brother, the Tritons aren't in the tourney
