I have very few rules in life but one of them is this: Never trust a team in the tournament if they're coached by a guy whose nickname is "Noodles".

My alma mater, Cal Poly just clinched their first NCAA tourney last night as the 7 seed in the shitty Big West. 12-19 on the season or something like that. Def. gonna be playing in the play-in game as a 16 seed but I'll be watching.

I think they were in already. Will be interesting to see come selection time, the bubble is pretty weak this year.

What are you bitching about? That draw in that bracket is a free trip to the Sweet 16.

Not bitching, I just honestly don't get the thought process.

We could go to the Final Four from this bracket, or we could be one and done. This is a hard team to figure out, and the bracket is even harder. That region is a Royal Rumble, almost anybody could win it.

Btw how bad did SMU get jobbed? I'd love to hear the committee's argument against them being one of the 30+ best at-large teams

Kentucky is too erratic and young to beat a true team like WS.

Sorry but when your SOS is ranked over 100 and you have only one win over a top-50 team in the RPI.....no, you didn't get hosed.
