Illinois a potential 2nd round matchup scares me a bit.
Not worried a bit. They won’t get past Arkansas.
-
This is 2007 dejavu again
-
@BShark I’m not super stoked about how this panned out. Have to think if we don’t get our asses whooped yesterday that we get the midwest.
-
I take it they don’t want a repeat champion.
-
So far Midwest is easiest bracket IMO
-
Arkansas is a really similar team to Texas. Can’t really shoot. But they can play defense and the length will bother us. Not quite as good as Texas though, and a reason they lost 13 games.

Musssssss

UCLA is a 2 seed in West, committee $crxxxd KU
-
We got hosed, but I still think we have a good shot at the FF.
-
@AsadZ I think UT has a tough first weekend tbh. But overall Midwest would have been a great place to be.
-
@Jethro no joke gotta beat some good teams.
Arkansas can beat us easily they are what we struggle against
Zags 3 seed out west along with ucla
No way we make it out of this bracket

You said that last year.
-
I think we can make it out of the bracket, but margin for error is so, so, so slim. Starters will have to make it happen. No Remy to save the day.
-
@Jethro I was afraid of Auburn that was it. Once they were eliminated it was perfect setup for us
Iowa is a joke plays zero defense ect (last year and this year)
This is the draw we didn’t want
-
The East is very easy.
-
Definitely feels like the toughest bracket on paper but all that can change with upsets and madness.
My goal is win 2 and see what happens.

I’ll let you worry about it. I’m not concerned.

How many did the big 12 get in overall?
-
KSU can kick UK’s rear end
-
Just hoping to see UK and KSU upset by the same 11 seed at this point. East is pretty weak.
-
No North Carolina. Lol.
-
Well we start in Des Moins - -KC after that ?

Vegas

I’ve watched all of the Razorback games this year in my role as a dutiful hubby. If we can force 20 turnovers and rebound no problem, Actually out of the match ups this one would be okay because they are not averse to 25 point first halves either.
-
Bold Prediction: KU vs. Texas in the FF.

Apparently we need to dial back our SOS, Houston has one at 96 we are 1 but it didn’t help

Seven

I think they screwed the B12 to the wall.

Every year we have the hardest bracket, the NCAA is out to punish us any way possible, there is not enough media respect for KU, etc etc etc. Y’all are certainly entertaining!
Bottom line: You play the game in front of you, one at a time. We only play 4 teams out of the 15 others in our bracket, and only 1 from the other half. Might win out, might not! Enjoy it!!!
-
The huge money making conference tourneys are only a big deal because of the automatic bids potential for lesser teams.

The thread has this name for a reason! Tradition lmaoo
-
I actually don’t mind our region. I think it’s one of the easier ones. Once we get past the 8/9 it falls really nicely for us. I think the South and Midwest are harder.

Digging into our 8/9 possibilities and it isn’t the worst.

Our schedule is the only reason that we had a chance to be a #1 seed. If we play any weaker of a schedule we’re a 2 or 3 seed.

Even the game announcers call us Kansas State.

Truth is, you can’t get smoked by the same team twice in the last week. So, they hammered us.
-
I’d trade brackets with KSU tbh

And K-State calls us “Daddy”.

No doubt we opened that door.
-
And that’s fine. I think our region is easier than the Midwest. Gotta earn it no matter what.

The criteria that the committee use is completely selective from year to year
-
Knower of ball Jay Wright picked us to make the FF.

This is very frustrating for sure.

It’s whatever they want it to be. They lay out the criteria, then completely ignore it.
-
Used to be all about Quad 1 wins and SoS. This year, it’s about who’s injured, who’s coaching, and Quad 1 & 2 wins vs losses and how big the losses were.
-
I do think UConn is going to have its work cut out for them game 1. Who would want to face Rick Pitino with a week to prep? lol
