First, how the heck did we get here already? This season has flown by.
Cheers to a fun, well officiated, and injury free NCAA tournament. Good luck to all the teams and coaches.
Go UCONN!!

Please let every game be decided by plays made on the floor, and not on calls/non-calls. Please, o gods of sport, let no game be decided on a review. And NO MORE GODDAMN INJURIES I MEAN IT.

All I want is an unbiased and fair distribution.
I'm going to guess though that the Tree will again have the softest path to the F4. The Committee loves Tara and she's well connected.
But, that's life....

Please, for the sake of me not javelin-throwing this pen clear through the screen, let the Tom Brady talk be kept to a minimum during the selection show.

bitter some? Supposedly they're doing it on the s-curve so whoever is #7 will be in Stanford's bracket.

Every path looks soft when you're a good team with a good coach.

I want to say that I've enjoyed Elle Duncan revealing the bracket. She's going at a great pace and giving time and info on each team. ESPN also having more cameras to show almost everyone so far while it's happening. Good work so far.

UConn being placed in Bridgeport isn't going to matter. They're going down in the opener.

Two interesting games in the 1st round are USF vs. Miami and UCF vs Fla. The 2 AAC teams never seem to play their P-5 state neighbors in the regular season. The AAC teams should be motivated.
USF has already beaten Stanford and it would be a hell of a year to also knock off the Gamecocks.

I'm stunned too. I was ready to compromise with three! Okay, maybe they're gonna pretend they respect the Big East after all.

Yeah as soon as I saw the alert on my phone that he pulled a Brett Favre I"m like did he really have to do that on Selection Sunday?

Who the cornbread hell even did the seedings????? Delaware is a 13 seed, FFS? Not even. Not coming out of the exceedingly mediocre CAA. If they’re a 13, Montana State should definitely be higher than a 16. That’s for openers. If this show would stop babbling and stop showing men’s brackets on the streamers I could comment further!
