Selection Sunday

[Displaced Flames fan]

Did anybody watch the CBS broadcast?

Is Jim Nantz the biggest **** in the world or what? What a complete *******. Not only was he extremely disrespectful to the committee chair, none of his arguments were based on anything tangible. He's dead wrong.

Glad to see that the studio guys couldn't wait to separate themselves and their opinions from those of the tools. Unbelievable.

As for the bracket itself and teams of interest here...

Gonzaga got screwed, but they have an easy bracket IMO. I really like them as an Elite Eight team at least with their draw.

Glad they got screwed because it ended up serving my Wichita State Shockers with a sweeter draw than I could've ever expected. They got a sweetheart matchup with Seton Hall, a team that is a very poor shooting team and one that has no inside game. Those things play right into the shockers hands. If they get by Seton Hall they'll face the winner of Tennessee and Winthrop. Tennessee is extremely beatable IMO. The Shockers wouldn't be miracle makers to get to the Sweet Sixteen IMO. This is going to be fun.

As for Montana, they end up with a better slot than I thought they would at #12, but they have a very, very tough matchup with Nevada. Go Griz!

Would love to see Montana beat Nevada after they upset the Zags a few years ago.

Absolute bs with the Zags seeds. Thank god the guys in the studio actually called them on it. THe nations longest winning streak, playing any out of conference games they can get and they still get disrespected. Gonzaga now has something to prove.

What do you think of where they ended up though? I think they've got a pretty good shot to come out of that bracket.

Montana is no slouch. They beat Stanford rather easily this year. Maybe they find a way to contain Fazekis and pull off the upset. 12-5 upsets are certainly not crazy talk!

I think Gonzaga's bracket gives it the chance to go all the way to the final four. I'd love to see Morrison and Redick just go back and fourth in the tournament and then meet up. However one game at a time, Xavier is as well no slouch what so ever. They did not deserve such a "high" seed.

Every year they have those videos right before the selection show of all the past tournaments, I just love them. Get a chance to see the Zags old jersey's? The light baby blue, O man that run in 98 was sure special, it started Gonzaga's run out of nowhere to now a name everyone knows. Not to mention the clips from that Arizona/GOnzaga game, O man I know it may sound like being a homer here, but of all the basketball I've ever watched that was the best game I've ever seen. I get goosebumps when I see Stepp's last shot, sooo close
