Michigan won 9 straight against conference opponents. Best record against said opposition since 1997-98

This team is GOOD fellers

Nantz trying to prod Beilein on the NCAA tournament but Beilein is humble and thinking about now. Don't worry about the NCA Atournament.

St. Mary’s lost last night. I’m on the fence about them getting in. @darko

Get off the fence and put them in.

Get off the fence and put them in.

I've been doing bracket projections for about a decade and a half now. I know that I'm not "official", but I do know enough about the subject. St. Mary's has a lot of empty wins. Their strength of schedule is terrible, and they only have one good win. They pass the eye test for sure, but I'm not sure if that will be enough to put them in... even though they are ranked in the top 25 poll.

NC State rally workin'.

 

[John Price]

NC State came back. Not a lot of close games this ACC Tournament so far, other than the Pitt - ND game. Going down to the wire here.

 

[PanthersPens62]

And down went NC State.

Arizona State isn't going to make the NCAAs off the top of my head. @awfulwaffle @BigMac1212

-ASU lost
-Louisville won a game
-Notre Dame won two games
-Texas won a game
-Oklahoma State won a game
-Kansas State won a game
-Alabama won a game

Who am I missing that's on the bubble that won? ASU is cooked, which is incredibly disappointing after their ridiculous start.

Yeah, both Lunardi & Palm have ASU as 1st 4 out.

Meanwhile, my beloved U (Canes) is projected by both as a 6 seed at the moment.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Syracuse and Marquette also won a game. I forgot about them.

Fun fact: I did better than Lunardi last year.

 

[solventless710]

Grayson Allen up to his typical dirtbag tactics.

 

[John Price]

Duke never can do things the easy way, can they?

 

[PanthersPens62]

ASU back in Lunardi's last 4 in this morning.

 

[rangerssharks414]

UMBC!

 

[GarbageGoal]

Nova wins great game in the BE final. Providence gave them all they had.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Let's go dancing!

 

[HisIceness]

Virginia should be a Final Four team this year. Crazy to think they never won the ACC w/ those early 80's squads that had Sampson and Carlisle. This is just their 3rd conference title.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Good lord, Deandre Ayton is so good.

Anyone setting up the pool this year

What site do you want it on? I prefer Yahoo to be honest. I'm not sure if ESPN allows for custom scoring. I think it's dumb that it's pretty much impossible to win if you don't get the winner right.
