Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.

I don't know how to handle basketball success. Virginia Tech has literally never been the conference front-runner at any point in program history.

Surely we will poo poo ourselves to Dayton and then proceed to dump two straight conference games.

We're gonna get wrecked by UVA if our outside shot isn't falling; really need Maddox to find his rhythm again, >50% from three last year, 26% so far this year. He's still hitting his mid-range jumper, but man that outside shooting would stretch the floor so good.

ISU handled St. John’s easy enough. Iowa comes next, then what should be east wins before Baylor kicks off conference play.

If your team can't hit a 3 to save their life, be happy if Mizzou is on your schedule. Everybody shoots lights out against them, but the Tigers end up scoring more so I guess it all evens out

They don’t. They play at Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston. Unless they’re playing at Allstate for some special event for some reason.

Didn't DePaul build an arena by the Mccormick Center? Which is also nowhere near their campus.

To be to fair to DePaul there is really no space in Lincoln Park for an arena, let alone an arena for a program that’s been poo poo for like 30 years.

I don't know about basketball, but DePaul was pretty wild as an institution, at one point the guy in charge was obsessed with tigers and kept blowing University money on tiger sanctuaries.

Considering how many schools are in the city and how many amazing players have come out of high school there it’s bizarre that Illinois does the best Chicago recruiting in the state.

"I thought DePaul could get itself positioned nicely in environmental science with a field site--that's sexy because of the tigers--but is most fundamentally a good science project."
