Will Trev attend the A&M Nebraska game?

 

[FriendlySpartan]

Isu with a nice path as deserved

 

[NoCreativity]

Meanwhile Marquette gets a free ride to the sweet 16

Kentucky will smoke them.

 

[NebrClone]

They probably had us penciled us into playing them in Omaha no matter what we did against Houston. We could have won by 60 and nothing would have changed.

Did not use tournament results at all. To lazy to update after yesterday.

 

[CoachHines3]

First look

Appropriate:

 

[Cyforce]

Knew Kellogg would be the DB to beat the drum for a bogus metric. Somebody give us a home and home or STFU.

 

[mynameisjonas]

Illinois is the #1 3 seed. UConn is the #1 1 seed. Worst seeding I have ever seen. ISU was #7 before the tournament - then they beat KSU by 19, #14 BU by 14 points, #1 UH by 28 points, win the conference and they end up LOWER (#8). WTF?????

I would rather play Illinois than any other three seed

 

[Erik4Cy]

Sucky draw other than location. Not scared of anyone before anybody says something along those lines, but plenty of teams ranked lower than ISU got more favorable potential matchups (at least on paper.)

Oh well, bring it on. Unpack from KC just to pack up for Omaha Clone fans.

 

[drmwevr08]

Marquette got a cake walk

Certainly looks preferable.

 

[madguy30]

Yeah, it's not that I'm scared of SDSU, WSU, or Drake - I'm not. But it doesn't make it any less of a slap in the face by the committee.

I don't like the optics of it at all.

 

[Istater4life]

Western Kentucky is closer to Indianapolis than Marquette.......

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Team Trev was AD at vs school he's going to be AD at.

 

[CycloneErik]

I more hate having UCONN in Brooklyn.

Boston.


Note: If anyone goes to Boston, the Dunkin at the Fleet Center/Boston Garden train station does nice work, but look out for the armada of pigeons looking to share your food. They get pretty serious.

 

[isufbcurt]

I more hate having UCONN in Brooklyn.

That's a long ways off - both teams need to make it that far first.

 

[TheCampanile]

[JM4CY]

When do they say when we play?

 

[LarryISU]

They put the 4 tournament champs in one region. Illinois, Auburn, UConn, and ISU

This bracket had to be set up a week ago. Just no attention paid to the last 5 days.

 

[Texbudman]

Not a great draw. But doubt TJ and crew are complaining about matchups.

If we play the way we played in KC we can beat anyone.

Teams in our bracket are ******** more. We’ll be fine

 

[BigTurk]

And it is such ********. The media in DSM will be slobbering over Drake.

They won’t. The media in DSM barely pays attention to Drake.
