*** Official Selection Sunday Thread ***

Not watching at that point...what did B1G Clark say?

Purdue winning it all

 

[jdoggivjc]

I guess being in the top 10 ALL season and a 2 seed gets you zero attention on the selection show.

they only moved us up to the 2 line in their last bracket (and only probably because they realized they looked stupid for not doing it)

FIFY

I would laugh, but I think there is a non zero chance that Bill does the exact same thing to get Billy hired

 

[AllInForISU]

Exactly, Hampton should be fresh in all our minds. Nothing is guaranteed in this tournament, even 1 seeds aren't entirely safe anymore.

Yea, and it has 0 to do with us. Nothing.

His picks, an absolute joke

Like NONE.

 

[Kinch]

Clark Kellogg is an idiot. That is all I can say.

Yep, I’ll start studying Tennessee State tonight so there are no surprises on Friday. I’ll pull an all nighter.

 

[Letterkenny]

Troy over Nebraska

It is inevitable.

 

[BigLame]

Purdue winning it all

So he lives in a cannabis-legal state

 

[madguy30]

Not the point. My point is not to look past any opponent as evidenced by what happened against Hampton.

That's the team's job. Not ours.

I'm not even sure if ISU was looking past anyone at that time as much that they were a mess.

It's also important to remember the 99-00 team found themselves in a tie ball game with about 5 minutes left in their first game after being up 20.

Hopefully this ISU tesm is sharp and can simply win and advance.

 

[clonedude]

I think I might pick Clemson over Iowa in my bracket.... but I'm a bit biased... I ALWAYS want to see Iowa lose by a thousand.

 

[Kinch]

I didn't like that 2nd round matchup, pope knows how to beat our defense and ky will have half the fans

assuming Pope can win the first round.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Some Tennessee State stats from my score app

31st in pace
127th FG%
311th in 3 pt shots made
230th in 3 pt %
60th rebounding
38th in offensive rebounding
228th in assists
7th in steals
247th in turnovers
143rd offensive rating
52nd defensive rating

Some things that will get our guys' attention (steals and rebounds), but are not great at one of our weaknesses as they aren't a huge threat from 3 and they're weak at passing and taking care of the ball.

Only tournament team that they faced appears to be @ Tennessee, and they lost that one 89-60

 

[hawksuck75]

Not that it really matters but we got the toughest 7 and 10 according to the seed list.

 

[danvillecyclone]

I think it was 10

They would’ve if Miami and SLU won their conference tournaments.

 

[pourcyne]

Dunno if any of you whippersnappers are old enough to remember 64 -62 = BIG EIGHT, so let
yer Uncle pourcyne say it here first...


Yokay.

My work here is done.

 

[FarmerCy1]

SEC POWER $$$$$

FIFY

 

[Old87]

I would have lost my bet that they were going to put Nebraska in our bracket for the story line of Hoiberg vs Lipsey.

 

[12191987]

North Carolina Central didn't make your cut?

They were a #14 seed.

But also, I forgot about that game.
