*** Official SELECTION SUNDAY Thread ***

[stormchaser2014]

I'm scheduled to work at 5:30p. Really hope they announce enough of the field to see where ISU is playing before I have to leave.

5:30 is when they start announcing I believe. It's never right away

There definitely is a clear gap between us and Gonzaga.

Excellent point. I'm not sure how you could come up with any objective evidence to the contrary.

 

[cyclones500]

I hope we at least play on Thursday. Seems like we have always been playing Friday nights.

I kind of like the late Friday-Sunday slot we've gotten the past two years. Waiting can be intense, but you can watch a full two days knowing we're still in it, then if we advance, another 2 days of the same thing.

And not just on the map.

Besides W-L record, this is true. We have 13 RPI top 50 wins while Gonzaga has 6. We also had a much, much tougher schedule than the Zags. Only Northern Iowa had an easier schedule than Gonzaga in the RPI top 25

For CBB fans like me, Selection Sunday is better than Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Boxing Day combined! I can't wait for the brackets!!!

Better than Boxing Day? Slow down buddy

Yeah, though for myself I put it at around 11am central time on Thursday for that...

After playing 3 grueling intense games in 3 days, getting that extra day off would be great. Friday-Sunday is what Omaha is as well.

 

[cyclones500]

I predict 3 seed, Omaha, vs. North Dakota State, South region, with 1 Duke and 2 Gonzaga. That would be about as favorable combo as you could expect. And I probably will be wrong on every detail.
:smile:

 

[marothisu]

I'll take Gonzaga, but I think Duke is dangerous too...though I think we could take them as long as we could make Okafor not go off.

Lenardi has us as a four seed, that's ********.

Has to be a mistake. He's had us as a three since last week

What bracket are you looking at?? He's had us as a 3 since the beginning of February

 

[WIBadger]

No he doesn't. Bracket from today has us as a 3 in the south

edit: looks like I'm a little late

They actually do start right away. They are usually done announcing the brackets a little after 5:30.

I can never remember. Someone told me they don't start right away.

 

[WIBadger]

His newest bracket also has Wyoming playing UNI. I hope not. I'll be rooting for uni but the Wyoming coach is an alum from my school

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Jerry's current bracket has us a 2 and the 7-10 is Wichita and Purdue. So it would be our chance to whip some MVC *** or it's Purdue and Painter whose battling Fred for the Infinity challenge.
