    Ok CBB, where is the perfect pod for us since you're so mad?
    Responding only because it has to do with basketball:

    The Midwest, assuming Kansas lacks Azubuike, otherwise the South. I'm pretty confident we match up well with a Kansas team that literally doesn't have a post player, and Clemson is closer to the type of team I want to face, defensive oriented teams a la Cincinnati with somewhat of a reliance on a traditional big. KU without a post is one of the most likely 1 seed upsets in the history of the tournament, meaning we have a really good shot at getting to the Elite 8 without wearing black. And even with Azubuike, I'm not sure KU matches up super well against us because I'm not sure they could handle Shaq.

    Otherwise, like I said above I'd prefer a defensive team to an offensive one so I'd prefer Virginia to Villanova. Both are good, the two best teams in the Dance by any statistical analysis, but judging by Cincinnati I think we could play above our normal level against Virginia and have something close to a 50/50 game. Whereas Villanova is like a supercharged Houston, with the best duo in basketball in Mikal Bridges and Jalen Brunson and 3 other guys that can absolutely light it up from deep. Of course, the other side of the equation is getting to that game. Kentucky is scary 5.

    • I really do hope OU has to play Duke. It’d be great to see what Grayson would do to Tre. Would he kick him?

        Right in the grapes!

        • Really fun regional for WSU fans. Added bonus getting to root for NMSU and Charleston. Clemson and Auburn don't even know they just got screwed with fan support.

              • Don’t think Tre will get a chance, I’ll take RI. like our chances against Marshal, West Virginia second game will take a all-hands on deck effort

                • I'll be rooting for K-State in their first game. No question.
                  Deuces Valley.
                  ... No really, deuces.

                      I’m extremely excited for the Friday/Sunday draw. Moving on Saturday. TV will be the last thing taken down on Friday and the first thing up on Sunday.

                      • OU got in cause of Tre Young. Really a joke. For them to go 2-8 down the stretch and really look bad at it and OSU beating Kansas twice and OU in tourney and not getting in is sad. I thought it’s how you finish

                          Blackmag, the committee officially removed the “last 10” or “last 12” games consideration. It’s literally no longer a criteria point.

                          So no, it’s not “about how you finish”. Right or wrong, they’ve been upfront about this.

                            So did I which Is why I initially posted it. but then I deleted it for language. If the audience is fine with an uncensored F-word, I’ll repost. But wanted to keep it respectful for the masses.

                            Doesn’t bother me. KW can take it down if he deems it no bueno.
