Oklahoma State better record than OU, beat them 2/3 times and beat KU 2/3 times. Folks are upset in Stillwater and I can't blame them.

They in the WCC. It simply doesn't get any respect. They only reason they were a one seed last year was their 29-1 record. Duke, Arizona, UNC, USC, Villanova etc will always get more respect

Yup.

Then you have St. Marys....#20 in the entire country last week. No bid.

USC has to be wondering how the hell they got left out as well. 2nd in the PAC12, 2nd in the conference tourney....11 wins away from home. Nothing.

Somehow though Florida State gets in.

But hey at least we get to see Oklahoma and whatever power 5 school finished 8th in the conference.

Louisville, USC, and Oklahoma State all have one thing in common they are part of the FBI probe of College Basketball.
Arizona too, but they won the Pac 12.

Michigan State a 3 seed with 4 losses and UNC a 2 seed with 10 losses. MSU also beat NC. Theres other things that are I think are a joke in the bracket too.

DeAndre Hunter is a brutal loss for Virginia whos out for the NCAA tournament with a broken wrist. Created matchup issues, was effective against zone defenses. Two-way player. That said, don’t think it ends Virginia’s Final Four hopes.

I walked into tickets for the evening session here in Wichita tomorrow night. Houston vs San Diego St followed by Montana vs Michigan. Just gotta find someone to join me. Any takers?!

I think that will help them moving forward.

Tough game though for sure.

Montana played well enough defensively which surprised me. Couldn't knock any shots down
Michigan will have their hands full with Rob Gray and Houston
The last minute of that Houston/San Diego St game was bonkers!

13-3 after day 1. I should have known better than to pick OU. Buffalo's clobbering of Arizona will screw my bracket badly, but well worth it!

And with that brackets are blown up everywhere. Condolences Dis...that has to sting.

Doubt there is one perfect bracket left anywhere.

I honestly believe that Marshall could well be facing the 12 seed in the next round as Murray ST. can ball and will probably give West Va. all they can handle.
