Quote from: BASS on Mar 18, 2025, 08:27 AMI think we'll see much less upsets than years past going forward.

NIL has made for more parity in the top 40 programs, and those seeded 4-10 are better teams than years past.

I've only filled out one bracket so far but it took me 3x longer than usual. To your point, there is a lot of parity. For example, there isn't much difference between us and KY yet we are 7 seeds apart.

UNC is 1-12 against quad 1 opponents? Is that right? Holy shit that's bad.

Correct. Only reason they got in was name alone. That said I'm probably betting on them tonight.

It's the 5-12 teams I'm still waffling on. Oregon has never lost first round of tournament however Liberty appears to be better team. Same thing with Michigan and UC SD....

Also is anyone picking Highpoint over Purdue? I see this as maybe the biggest upset.

Their AD was also the chairman of the selection committee, and stood to make a $100,000 performance bonus of UNC got in.  I'm sure that didn't have anything to do with it. 

Better teams got left out.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

I'm still mad about their coach referring to BWA as just a Big 10 road game, so I'll pick against them.

For those interested, Sandy Galtelli, the one who ran the football pool this year, has a basketball bracket called Sandy's Friends 25 on the CBS site. $10 entry fee. If you want to join dive in. You can fill out a total,of three brackets each.
Well, shit...

Even so, UNC would have only tied the game.

Orange is a good bet in the Midwest region. Especially if Texas wins the play-in game.

I haven't even finished one yet. I watched way too much college basketball this year and went on a nice heater this past week/weekend. So now I'm overthinking/second-guessing everything because I know those runs don't last.
