I absolutely love the single individual fan storming the court. The question is, if we beat MSU will @DMB43 do the same??

Thought experiment: currently, the one and two seeds in bracket matrix are: Purdue, UConn, Houston, Zona, Tennessee, UNC, Marquette, and Kansas. If you had to pick a team from outside those 8 to win it all, who are you going with and why?

Auburn. Love their defense and their offense LOL
Auburn is one of 2 teams hitting Kenpoms “top ten in offense and defense” test
my daaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrk horse would be UNC
I’m sure that I’m the last person on this site to find it but the Three Man Weave podcast is terrific.

Illinois. In a series of two-game tournaments I think TSJ can take over. I’m totally ignoring the fact that they really don’t have a point guard. Neg away.

Sadly, the depth of despair that this Michigan team has put my fandom in has made it hard for me to care much about college basketball in general. I usually have a rough idea of who outside the B10 is doing well and this year that’s not the case.

My 2 have already been discussed with Auburn and Illinois. I’d also include Baylor, though I haven’t paid attention to their injury news of late.
I’m low key rooting for a UNC run, led by Cormac Ryan having a magical tourney performance that John Beilein always knew was possible.
What about how Illinois plays suggests they need a point guard other than what they have
Their offense is awesome
They lose when they hack the shid out of everyone

I have a future on UNC that I got when they were +3000 so I would approve of this result
Post entry passes from halfcourt being intercepted by Hoggard/Walker like 20 times in a row 
they struggled with the pressure

They had 9 turnovers
They scored 1.15 ppp
But yeah they lost because of a pg
Next year Sincere Harris and Ty Rodgers run the show
I was joking, but did you not see how the game ended? They basically couldn’t get into sets because Domask couldn’t handle the pressure great
They don’t need a PG, they need someone to be able to handle pressure in late games because it doesn’t look like their defense is gonna step up

I mean they turned it over 3 times in the final 7+ minutes. More than the TO’s allowing breakaway layups off of everything including made baskets seemed like a problem
They lost because they allowed points at Michigan levels
