>Falling for the Tech meme

ohio teams have not won since 1962. the drought will continue indefinitely

I don't understand how UCLA or especially ASU could get a play-in game over USC. Do they just want to give the NIT a better team for competitiveness?

OSU and USC are being investigated. MSU dropped to a 3 seed in the toughest bracket due to gymnastic embarrassment. UNC always gets the easy path. Otherwise, it's a fair bracket.

fair. I have MSU beating KU.

Gonzaga, Kentucky, Arizona, and Ohio St are all playing in Boise this week? Road trip!

AZ beating UK?

Comfy bracket, here.

>Arkansas going that far.

Sad my Irish didn't make it in, but they really didn't deserve it this year. Frankly shocked they were even in consideration. This bubble shit needs to end.

You would watch

>Louisville out
>Kentucky wins SEC

Some things remain constant.

im a kansas fan and this is being optimistic

>watching Arkansas
Disgusting, have some self-respect.

Where tf do I find these brackets? I don't see any on the tournament challenge.

no one link him

Once again, EVERY POSSIBLE quality mid-major team is paired with another mid-major team so as to not knock out the traditional powers.

Houston vs SDSU
Wichita State vs Marshall
NMSU vs Clemson

Meanwhile shit-ass teams are given inflated rankings to keep them in longer and keep more eyes glued to TV sets-- Tennessee as a 3-seed? WVU as a 5 seed but against the easiest possible opponent, Murray State. SFA vs Texas Tech in the "these aren't big draws so let's have them play each other and ignore all Texas teams" game.

Fuck. This. Shit.

KU has a clear view at the Elite Eight. That Duke/MSU/RIU matchup is their only hurdle to a Final Four

>just create a bracket of every possible outcome
>win millions upon millions of dollars for getting a perfect bracket

literally free money

Head to head
USC couldn't even split against UCLA or beat ASU who was a trainwreck in conference play

/cbb/ is miami going to get the second week?

Thanks!

you would be making brackets nonstop for the next million years to have a legitimate chance

>do this
>some random 10 year old girl who made a bracket for her family's pool wins anyway

>Mid majors
>Clemson

Really though,I got NMSU winning that one. Brownell is a terrible coach

>hurr durr 1 in 10 zillion chance of getting a perfect bracket

Or there could be no upsets and a fuck of ton people get a perfect bracket

>Head-to-head meme
That might mean something in college football but it's a fucking ridiculous argument to make in college basketball. ASU finished fucking ninth in the conference and got bootyblasted by Colorado in Vegas. That has to mean something.
What do Louisville, SC, and OK State all have in common?
>All have deserving resumes
>All pushed out to give spots to inferior teams
>All part of the FBI investigation
Enjoy your fraudulent "tournament" lmao
>inb4 mad

The NCAA will continue to twiddle their thumbs as long as the FBI refrains from arresting more assistants before the tournament. Their policy of laissez faire is criminal.

>he thinks schools that are too inept to pay players under the table without getting caught deserve to be in the tournament

Attached: IMG_20170919_005523.jpg (544x249, 14K)

If those schools do better than fucking ninth in their conference then yes they absolutely deserve to be in the tournament. If the NCAA wants to punish those schools next year they can go ahead, but they’re basically being shadowbanned from the tournament even though no official disciplinary proceedings have happened

agreed its shit. Also how does Saint Marys not get in?

Committee dropped the ball in pretty much every way this year.

Bribes

Keep posting brackets. I need the perfect bracket to copy.

just go to espn and mash the "randomize by weighted seed" button on your bracket lmao

How the hell did USC not get in? I didn't even think their resume was bubble worthy.

I don't trust that button. I trust /cbb/'s judgments more.

oh that big OK fan, the old dude, was raving about players from X school not needing to worry about FBI investigations once they head to the pros. I figured he thought they were concerned about Mueller for some reason

what schools/why are being FBI investigated?

The tech meme is a gamble on one guys toe.

How do we stop them bros?

you don't. It's going to be a conference of champions only final as the pac-12 finally establishes itself as the sole conference worth watching.

>mfw both college football and basketball have all-SEC natty matchups and everyone spergs out

Attached: lebron jayyyymes.gif (409x252, 599K)

i feel like less will sperg for hoopball because the teams will have to play to get to top 4.

>Pac 12
>ever meeting expectations

Come on man.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!?! IT'S OUR TURN TO BE ELITE!

A Kentucky vs. Florida National Championship would be the result of a historically great tournament.

They're on the case

Why wouldn’t someone just write a script to enter every single possible bracket combination?

I really wanted to take Arizona to go far but that's a rough region.

you can only have one entry per email address in their official tournament thing and I'm sure there are other fail safes for stuff like that.

Arizona State was lowkey included because they have the highest chance of upsetting teams. The beginning of their season is the greatest in school history then when they lost #1 ranking its like they said fuck this entire thing we can't be arsed.

However if ASU can believe in its ability to win, they could make a final four.

i wouldnt mind keking at the perennial choker miller finally advancing far in the year he gets investigated, then it gets vacated later

wtf is a Loyola-Chicago and how did it end up in my sweet 16

>south region

jesus thats tough

Looking at it now and laughing at the Calipari v Miller on my bracket
No matter who I pick to win the NCAA will take it away 5 years from now

what round is Purdon't going to choke in this year?

Every year people fall for the Pac 12 meme and they end up regretting it.

I swear every fucking year my final 4 has 3 #1 seeds, and 2 of them are Gonzaga/Villanova
every damn time

Second round if Our-Kansas beats Butler

Looks like we're due

honestly who should I root for to knock off uva? because fuck that team and their playing style. hope they loss every fucking year

never pick clemson to win a first round game

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clemson_Tigers_men's_basketball#NCAA_tournament_results

who is your /final4/ guys?

so true lmao

See this is the thing, Purdue has a really good team, but Matt Painter is a god awful game coach. Sure he recruits well but until he takes a step up in strategy Purdue will be perennial sweet sixteen exits, if they even get that far

Reminder that steve donahue almost pulled off the biggest miracle win in phog allen against bill self
just remember this

youtube.com/watch?v=wL9PC7-uwFo

UVA can't make it past the Elite 8. They are gatekeepers.

See

where's the official Sup Forums group to join?

Gonzaga deserves a 1 seed

Is there an equivalent resource to Verbal Commits for football?

Gonzaga doesn't deserve shit until they move to a real conference. Enjoy your second or 3rd round loss

Gonzaga played in the national championship last year, m8

who else /matched up against a school that literally pays its players/ here?

Attached: buffalo-bulls-vs-arizona-wildcats-preview-and-predictions-650.jpg (650x313, 64K)

Yeah and? The one exception after a history of mostly 2nd and 3rd round exits. Gonzaga hasn't even been to another final four. But by all means think they are a legit program. Surely they will make it back to another championship game and lose the title against a real school like butler did that one time.

>Arizona State was lowkey included because they have the highest chance of upsetting teams.
You can't believe this unironically. They've played like absolute shit for like 2 months while SC is on a hot streak. USC is undeniably the better team right now.

>march madness is about to start
>spring koshien starts next week
spring is the best season. maximum comfy

March Madness starts when conference tournaments start, retard.

Someone convince me why Arizona at 12/1 is a bad bet.

SU gonna meme their way to the final4 again

they just lost their head coach
their best player is dogged by allegations of rule breaking
their first round opponent is #25 in RPI

No they didn't
He's still playing
They're #13

Next case

>Win your conference tourney which gives you an automatic bid
>Still have to play an extra game to get to the round of 64

Why do people like this system again?

Attached: just.png (958x903, 370K)

what the fuck I just looked it up and you're right
how is he still coaching
nuke the NCAA
UB got jobbed here wtf

I don't think anyone _does_ like the play in games

It's stupid because no one wants to watch two 16 seeds play each other. They should get automatic bids into the 64.

>Why do people like this system again?
The people receiving ad revenue like it, and they're the only ones that have the power to change it

Stop ayton and you win. 2easy
