OK, here is an interesting set of tidbits for you.

Michigan State's last tournament win was in 2019.

Michigan State's last Round of 64 loss was in 2016.

Michigan State has been in 24 straight tournaments.

How is this all possible?
2020 - did not actually play the tournament
2021 - didn't have 64 teams in it (I'm not sure that this was true but it's a guess)

TCU grinding down Seton Hall jsut like we did tonight. The Big 12 seems to have found a winning formula for March..

I think it's pretty obvious why teams like Iowa go home early every year.

Wisconsin doesn’t look like a 3 seed. We won’t be favored, but they are beatable. It’s crazy to think we have a legitimate shot to get to the sweet 16.
I didn’t want to say it, but LSU scared me more than Wisconsin. I’m sure I’ll regret this though.

They lost a play in game? They didn't play in 2020 cause Covid?
