It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

ISU fell all the way to 11. Way below most bracket predictions. Is LSU actually good? Feels like we might stand a chance in that one.

Think it might be slightly out of date, their win today might have just counted as Q1, but weird situation yeah: metrics love them but it was mostly from them beating up on bad teams

They’re sans coach at the moment I feel like if Good ISU shows up they could win comfortably

Baylor as the 1 and Purdue as the 3, I'll take it. Don't like the committee setting up a potential second round matchup with Murray St.

I'm not happy at all with this draw. A Chris Beard team in round 2 and Kentucky in the Sweet 16 is less than ideal.

UNC has a tough route out of the first round and a next to impossible path to the sweet sixteen. I hope we make it past round one.

Rutgers deserved a better seeding than Michigan. We split with them, had more good wins and they took a giant poo poo all over the court in the big 10 tourney.

Y'all had a weird-rear end resume. Definitely deserved to be in, maybe not as a play-in, but lol at having a worse Quad 2 record than Quad 1.

And our watery assdiarrhea was against Indiana, not Lafayette :psyduck:

But seriously, good for Rutgers, really, really wanted them in, moreso than Indiana.

Auburn's draw seems fine, aside from the in-state 15/2 matchup. Not playing great basketball for a few weeks now but... still feel like there's a 5% chance the next three weeks become the moment most of America meets Jabari Smith Jr.

I know it’s hard to remember because the numbers are all mixed up, but the Big 12 is way deeper than the Big 10 this year.

They beat every one of the 8 other Big 10 teams that made it in.

Eh, that's debatable. 9 of 14 in the tournament for the big ten vs 6 of 10 for the big 12. They're certainly not "way deeper."
