Zags are overrated. They haven't beaten a better seed in six years (and even then, it was a #9 beating a #8). If they get to the Sweet 16, the only way I see them advancing is if UNC isn't in it.
I see you basing their chances this year on what they've done in the past...

Have you seen them this year?

wake forest, pitt, memphis, oklahoma. my bracket sucks, but i dont really care that much this year, this year's tourney is going to be way too difficult to predict since none of the teams really stand out since they all have some significantly major flaws.

i find it hilarious when people talk about snubs and others not getting in....look if you were on the bubble, you ain't making it to the championship game. or even the final 4.

only 1 team has ever made it to the final four that wasn't seeded 1-8. and that was george mason. and 90% of the teams in teh final 4 have been 1-4 seeds...

all of this arguing i've been listening to on the radio and on tv is completely retarded...

Purdue? You and Hubert.
I think they are a good team. Hummel is finally getting healthy...they have some upset potential.

funny thing about them I remember was they weren't even supposed to get in. It should have been Hofstra who had just beaten GMU and it was between the two of them. But the chair of the selection committee was the GMU AD. It was total BS but they obviously proved that they belonged.

On paper it looks like Uconn's type of game, but I don't know all that much about A&M. It doesn't look like you shoot a lot of 3s which plays right into Uconn's hands as they might only shoot 3 per game. Is your Center able to shoot from far away? I think that would be your best bet. Although, Uconn tends to check out mentally quite a bit. So they're ripe for an upset from anybody really.

what's a metathread?

its a made up word I guess. meta is a prefix meaning "about", or at least that's kind of how I use it. I think I should have said meta-tournament thread.

Of course not. Past results are always indicative of future performance... right? (hey... maybe that's why my 401(k) is in the tank).

There are seven teams in the NCAA tournament from the Big Ten, the Big East and the ACC. I guarantee the Big Ten will win more games than the Big Least. The East Coast dream will become a nightmare when the men to the east don't get a team beyond the second round. Here is how the conference will unfold:
That dude makes a living off of writing. I don't know if that's funny or sad.

I'll give him the big ten winning more games than the big east since they play such good defense, although I don't think it will happen, but none of the big east or acc teams getting past the second? i'd bet all my future earnings on that...

Particularly because of
Radford becomes new Big South power, filling vacuum left by the demise of Winthrop.
THAT part of that line. I'm glad we're not the only ones who see it. :)

Well, he was saying in a dream world for RU, they would fill it.

In the real world, we will. :)
