Open Thread: Selection Sunday 2021

*buckeyes getting a great draw

OSU and Purdue could potentially play a 4th game.

No Loyola yet…

Extra bummed no Livers because this tournament has to be as good as it gets for short bench teams - no travel

Is UM playing Friday or Saturday

Teams that haven’t been announced yet that should be in the 2 to 4 range: Alabama, Houston, Oklahoma State, Texas, Florida St., West Virginia.

Weird that the 2, 3 and 4 seeds that they put in Gonzaga’s region are teams that they’ve already played and beaten. Seems like they could’ve mixed it up just a little bit. Especially since Gonzaga plays like 5–6 good teams a year. Not hard to avoid a rematch

So that “rematches are to be avoided” thing was more of a recommendation than a serious rule?

They don’t project things that far into the tournament. It would be impossible. That’s a rule for the first round, and then there are different rules for how soon teams can meet depending upon how many times they played during the regular season.

Boom - roasted
