2021 Selection Sunday - CBS, 5 PM

[Laxtonto 12121]

This seeding makes little sense as far as consistency goes, that side of the bracket isn’t horrible.

Fuck me, BYU and Mich St? Not what I wanted to see. 

Agreed. I hate that 2nd round draw

That said, we should be able to beat either

Posted this in the wrong thread...how the fuck is WVU a 3 over OSU?  Beat them twice in a week, more quad 1 wins, made it to the conf title game by beating Baylor...why am I not surprised.  Incredible.  And Kansas gets to sit out due to covid and still gets to avoid the 1 seed in the S16.  Pissed.  

Looks like y’all got dinged for the TCU part of your resume 

[Guest Lobo]

Since we are Saturday-Monday 1st/2nd rounds, does that mean we'll also be Sunday-Tuesday for 3rd/4th rounds?  Or are they resetting everything after the first weekend?  I would think not this year due to as much time as possible being allotted to logistics.  

[jimmyjazz 46225]

Gonna need scouting reports on ACU and BYU . . . 

[VaLonghorn99 341]

No Chaminade, no fear. Abilene Christian, we got this. 3 seed is good for Texas.

[Hank Scorpio 17731]

BYU is fucking good. They’ve got a few 27 year old white guards who can all shoot and could have some bullshit tourney game where they hit 15 threes. And they have a giant mutant center who assuredly comes from some sort of Mormon breeding program. 

[Blotto 23584]

worst news from this show so far is the Sat/Mon draw. Hopefully its later on Monday rather than one of those early ass games.

i will take that draw all. day. long. i kinda hate getting my hopes up here, but we have a real chance to make the EE based on this draw. LFG!!

Agree.  I like our chances with that draw to make the EE.

[OB3 3629]

Really wanted that 3 seed in Midwest region

That was forever a fucking go. We just beat WV TWICE IN A WEEK!  why did we even play those fucking games? I seriously wish I knew who within the ncaa hates us so god damned much and why. I seriously have no explanation for why we are continuously screwed.

We should be able to pound BYU and Bama down low but if we get into a three point shooting contest or bad Ramey, we’re very capable of losing either of those

the committee is drooling over an ok state/illionois sweet 16 matchup.

Yeah don’t want to get into a 3 point contest with Bama

[LTtxfan 49373]

Looks like committee hoping for Mich State vs TEXAS in Rd of 32...

[Underdog 28785]

Sparty/Bruins in First Four game...  wow. 

Possible Michigan/LSU should be fun.  

[Dr Fear 1268]

Any idea when game times get announced?

[Js1 85602]

BYU gave Gonzaga a fucking game just a few days ago

So let’s just be completely unfair to do this. If they uphold the postseason ban next year there is zero hope for the ncaa. A completely worthless piece of shit institution.

[El Diablo 4232]

South gonna suck. Baylor will be first #1 out. 

[Pato del Muerto 52616]

Off the top of my head, should have ok st and wv flipped, and Texas and Houston flipped. 
 

what’s the name of the 24 year old white Mormon that will be making 8 threes against us shortly?  Or is there more than one?

Poor Mitch from the selection committee, with that permafrown, he could experience the birth of his first grandchild and win the lottery, and still look like someone took a shit in his cereal.

Yep. Oklahoma State got fucked with WV being ranked higher.

[Machinator 32099]

If we make the Sweet 16, we won't be able to back in.

We don't want to get into a 3 point contest with Luling High School.

[Chad 1728]

It won't be an easy road to the Sweet 16, but if Bama somehow reaches the Sweet 16 you couldn't ask for a better draw because they inflated their win total in a shitty conference and Texas should mop the floor with Bama.

WVU seeded higher than Okie Lite is a joke!!!

I wouldn't sweat it too much. 

If it's Texas - Michigan St., it's likely a primetime game.  Probably same for either BYU or UCLA since they're west coast fanbases.

This and then BYU gave Gonzaga a super close game a few days ago. Then Bama. Tough road

This tweet could have been literally any school just to doompost, if it was Colgate it was gonna be that they had the #9 NET, if it was someone else it'd be their 3% defense, another team it would have been they're an awesome free throw shooting team so we can't foul.

Probably tomorrow.  BTW, whoever decided to change the first two rounds from Thursday-Sunday to Friday-Monday can get fucked.

[MrPhlegm 3413]

Everyone said I was full of shit. It was tough going out there on a limb like I did but I did. I am a GD genius.

They don't care about that.  They give a Pac-12 team an 11am start literally every year.

Fucking doofus responsible for the horrid checkerboard unis UK wears... 

[Homercles 10206]

I blame the NET rankings.  If we were the 4 in Michigan’s bracket I’d be a little less miffed...but if anything put Kansas in a 4 to punish dropping out of the tournament.  Anyways...used to getting shafted by the NCAA

first name or last? Conner Preston? Preston Conner?

[honolulu horn 6165]

I don't understand why WV gets so much love from the committee. 

[Js1 85602]

Who did Huggins blow to get this treatment??

[UTexasFight 9547]

So gotta go to indiana for our first game when we could meet halfway and play in Goldthwaite

Conner Connor.  Senior point guard from Orem.

[Funk Doctor Spock 12525]

I am fucking amped! I can see this team going pretty deep. Although I am still unsure about Shaka, tbh. It's taken him like 6 years to make the tourney. Anyway, can't wait for Saturday 

Edited March 14, 2021 by Spider2YBanana

[Pato del Muerto 52616]

So wv is the 10 overall seed and Texas is 11. Makes perfect sense.
