2022 NCAA Tournament Open Thread

Well, why not St. Peter’s?

And in another light, the Big 10 with another brutal tournament. Michigan the only school who can hold their head up for the last - three years?

When you have the chance to lose to a 15 in the Sweet 16, you gotta take it.

Shaheen Holloway IS Seton Hall. How do people not grasp this? That’s his blood. That’s everything to him. He was literally the heart and soul of that program. He doesn’t want crummy Maryland fgs

Sorry if that sounded harsh, but do you all remember the Shaheen Holloway era at Seton Hall? I’m pretty sure it means the world to him to return there as HC.

That’s it for my bracket. Had a puncher’s chance if both Purdue and Nova made the FF.

Those dudes absolutely have a shot to beat UCLA or UNC.

Goodnight, Matt Painter. May I find something in life some day that I believe in as much as you believe in Trevion Williams post ups against a matchup zone

Well how could the Peacock’s lose on national Peacock day? Really there is such a thing that is crazy. Big Ten gets none in the elite 8 kind of a bummer was rooting for Purdue but great story now and makes Michigan look better.

Pretty sure Purdue was out of TO’s.

They’re gonna have such a breath of fresh air in that game. Hope they still come out with the desperation they did thus far.

Yeah, that’s what I was saying. They were hurt badly by not having one available.

I think we do grasp that.

I hear ya. Purdue was my last “clever” pick to make the final four.

I’m almost certain that this is the first time ever that I didn’t pick a single final four team.

But that’s what makes the tourney so awesome.

Fair to say Michigan had the conference’s best tournament performance?

Juwan Howard one of the worst coaches in the Big Ten.

I don’t usually disagree with Dylan, but I thought he was way off base on the pod saying MD should have just hired him. I don’t think they land him over Seton Hall in a million years. No chance.

I have been told nothing they did was impressive because they got an overseeded 6 and Rick Barnes in March, so unfortunately, no.

Pretty sure we remain one of the only teams to beat a top 4 seed in years.

Edit: the last 2 tournaments the rest of the B1G has only beaten a 6 seed (Purdue vs Texas), a couple 7 seeds, and a 9 seed. Every other B1G win was against a double digit seed.
