NCAA Watch Party - w/Coach Marshall

[jocoshock]

sCUm with an 8 seed? Really? Does Alabama even have a team after all the players were suspended?

Most if not all of those players are back...

[Shock&awe]

Sure would love to swap ourselves with Temple for the 5 seed in the Midwest. We'd have got to play KU potentially and stayed closer to home.

[wu_shizzle]

Creighton should be one and done.

[shoxlax]

The potential St Mary's-Chickenhawk game could be epic.

[shockar25]

It doesn't matter who we play. If we play like we're capable there are very few teams who can hang with us. It sucks that another smaller school like VCU might be eliminated early, but we've gotta do what we've gotta do!

I wonder when they say what the game times are for Thursday...

It's always a great day to be a Shocker, but this is a REALLY great day to be a Shocker.

For informational purposes:

#8 for CU to play in Greensboro against Alabama (Midwest Bracket)... Should they win they will play UNC. Ouch....even i didnt think they deserved an 8. Was expecting no less than a 7

Sucks to be a Blue Jay. Elgin didn't get CU the nice seed he wanted them to have.

Sounds some folks think Kentucky may have gotten screwed a bit....

Seems like the #1 overall seeded team always gets the hardest bracket. That's odd to me.

Lutz is probably already dubbing our game a BCS coaching audition between Marshall and Smart.

[SB Shock]

Well, if you think we got screwed...take a look at Creighton. Wow/OUCH.

yeah, I don't feel so bad now. I thought at worst they were a 7, but likely a 6. It make you wonder how the selection committee can screw some of this up with things like Texas/K-state.

[wu_shizzle]

KU should be fine unless Belmont makes the Sweet 16.

[shocker22]

We should have been a 4 seed over Mich, or Wisconsin and louisville

K State has been a lock for two weeks, since they beat Baylor and Missouri on the road.

Texass on the other hand, had no worries once they beat Iowa State in the conference tournament with the inside help they probably had on the committee.

Seth Davis: "If Creighton moves on and plays UNC, no one will be playing defense in that game."

[forevershockerfan]

KU should be fine unless Belmont makes the Sweet 16.

KU may win a game or two. They were better than advertised this Season. However, their lack of quality depth will not allow them to go too far.

I think the committee loved the idea of a McDermott/Barnes match up if CU can get thru Alabama. But yeah, didnt see them geting more than a 7 either. Looking forward to our game...though Portland is way too far for travel
