2025 NCAA Tourney Bracketology

Insane that UNC AND Texas got in based on what the odds were suggesting (they were out). Name brand matters.

Did anyone have WVU out? That was shocking. I secretly wanted Boise in but knew that wasn't going to happen.

"insane"

So people who thought the ncaa would leave us out because they hate us are now complaining because we got seeded too high and it leads to a tough possible matchup?

Yup. I was tweaking until that last bracket was shown

I thought they would leave us out when Texas made it. I never went with the 14 teams from sec was going to make it. Happy to make it and to play UConn. Not liking having to play Florida. They just a bad matchup for us.

Conference affiliation doesn’t matter. Start believing what the committee says. They don’t hide the criteria.

 

[TSSR]

I called UNC in. Bubba Cunningham is the head. I mean come on guys. No upsets that needed to happen. This was too easy for him.

Yeah, being on the bubble would have helped seeding and maybe a better match-up, but man, that's not a place where I want to live. It's sucked the last few years.

Reality is this isn't the same UConn of the last two years. Lost 3 of 4 and then put together some wins late. Don't shoot a ton of threes, doesn't force as many as TOs as previous years... rebounding will be an issue. But they are beatable this year. Close strong and play like we have the last three weeks, we have a shot.

Let's face it. Tennessee, Alabama, Houston, St Johns... Florida, those all would have been bad 2nd round matchups for us regardless of our seeding. And glad to not be playing Kansas. That would have sucked- once in the NCAA tourney was enough.

Just glad to be in and looking for an upset on Friday! Better than being angry about being the first four out. I've had enough of those days.

That 7/10 game with Kansas and St Johns as the 2 is the one we wanted. 8/9 just sucks, bad.

 

[OrlandoSooner]

I know you are not the author of the tweet, but Texas had Seven quad one wins

“People who think the NCAA hates us .. think the NCAA hates us.” .. Yes, WS, yes we do. Lol.

Yep being in the tournament pretty clearly is better than not. I doubt we get past the 2nd round but this will be something to build on.

Spent plenty of time in that area. I actually interviewed for the Voorhees University basketball job one year. Not far from your neck of the woods.

Bet you’re crying right now. . Moserball. Boomer

Indiana out … there goes the blue blood conspiracy. West Virginia missing is the one that stands out to me. Losing to Colorado was a killer.

I agree that WV has the biggest beef. They did have an awful loss to end the season, but it's hard to argue against 6 Q-1 wins and then watch some of the teams ahead of them (NC, Xavier, etc.) that only had 1 Q-1 win. I would be pissed if I were them.

Exactly. Also Fears might be able to feast vs this Uconn team. They suck at defending the outside.

I just want to be playing Sunday now. Anything more is icing on the cake.

Never look forward to playing Kansas. Even this year. They have size and athletes.

And St Johns presses and forces 16 TOs and out rebounds opponents big-time.

UConn is due. F Dan Hurley I want to see him cry

 

[TEvans4Three]

I may try to fly down for the game...

Amazing that anyone things the ncaa has a vendetta against OU basketball. Then again, people think the fictitious Big 12 and now SEC refs hate us.
