just saw Miami OH is 30-0 and ranked 19. why?
What the hell happened to BYU? Cincy is kicking the dogshit out of them rn. (great win for UC tho, gotta think they have a straight-forward path to get into the tournament now)
>>153724822because everyone nowadays are faggots. they look at advanced metrics and other bs analytics to come to the most retard conclusion imaginable. in the old days small schools balling out got the love they deserved.
UCONN - Houston is my final
>>153724805>bulbasaur bounce but amateur
>>153724831Second best player (Saunders? Sonders?) went down with ACL. They got a dead cat bounce against Iowa State, but teams have scouted them since.>>153724822Really weak schedule, like (0) quad one and (1) quad two wins weak. In fairness, nobody would schedule them because they knew they were dangerous.

>>153724837Their games often go down to the wire against BAD teams, they aren't good.
>>153725200Arky St got fucked, holy shit. Imagine tying for 2nd and then having to win 3 games just to play the team you "tied"
>>153724822I have a feeling we will find out when the tourney starts. They have played a second-division schedule and they've played much closer games than a 30-0 team would expect to.Second-round exit, at best.
Playing now, though four teams with byes are the teams worth watching.
High Point's tournament to lose.

No clue who wins this
Tennesneed st or SEMO is my guess here.
Pulling for the newly eligible St Thomas, even though NDSU will likely win.

i've always wanted to go to one of these 300-person games
Great ending in the Fordham LaSalle game
wtf is edward waters
>>153724822Extremely weak schedule. They’ve played one team ranked higher than 150. If they lose against Ohio Friday they unironically have to win the MAC tourney to make the dance. Ken Pom is the best prognosticator year after year. He has Miami at #88. There are nine teams with losing records ranked higher
>>153725837Very competitive conference…AKA the sun belt champ will get speedbagged by ACC #6 in a couple weeks

>>153739451I meant it more in the sense of Gonzaga having won 21 of the past 28 years. And as weak as Gonzaga may be compared to years past, they are above St. Marys in every ranking I have seen. Santa Clara seems like the most interesting team to follow to me anyway.

Miami survives 110-108
>>153757874I looked. Jesus fucking Christ.
>>153757874Imagine the relief.
Why in the fuck are people saying that Miami (OH) needs to win their conference tournament or they won't get into the field? Did people forget when Gonzaga played absolutely nobody, winning 30 games a season, and people jerked them off like crazy. Why doesn't Miami (OH) get the same treatment?
Why is there a Miami in Ohio
>>153763635The strength of schedule difference between Gonzaga and Miami Ohio is not even fucking close. The WCC is miles better than the MAC, plus the zags play good nonconference opponents. Miami has played one of the weakest schedules possible. 365 D1 teams and Miami’s schedule is ranked 361st. Zero quad 1 opponents, 1 win against quad 2 teams. They deserve to make the dance but they will lose by 20 first round to a legit top 30-40 team. Prob be a 7-9 point underdog against a 6 seed like Utah State or UCLA
>>153763963>they will lose by 20 first round to a legit top 30-40 teamDamn, didn't know you can see the future. You must win the million perfect bracket every year, right? I mean since you can foretell the future and all.>punish a team for beating the opponents that they are forced to play and that will schedule against themIt's a damned it you do, damned if you don't situation. You want to punish the small schools for beating all their opponents, but then make fun of the blue bloods for scheduling these small schools. Everyone bitches and rolls their eyes when Duke beats Western Carolina, Lipscomb, Howard, etc. At least try to be consistent, you can't have it both ways.
Happy rivalry weekend for those who celebrate.

>>153763635They're very safe, even with an early round lossProbably even a 10 seed, barring a ton of bid thieves

Oh boy, I get to watch UK get BTFO by Florida again. Went from a team that can't play defense, but can score at will, to a team that can kinda score but still can't play defense. I give it 2 more seasons and Pope will be fired.

>>153775266UConn does its best when it has incomprehensibly bad conference losses late in the season to make people forget they’re UConn. I’m going with them for champion
>>153775266In the NIL and transfer portal all good mid major players transfer up to good teams. And theres so many metrics out there for evaluating teams that rankings are much more accurate of team strength in the past. The result is what we got last year, all chalk.Pick the favorite and higher seed in every game and youll win easy. Boring but its what will win

>>153782590I've been following Cincinnati out of morbid curiosity and its not overly surprising. 1. They have a very talented and expensive roster2. They had some early injuries and Jizzle James was off the team for some disiplinary issues3. Wes Miller is a tactical retard and lost them half a dozen or more close games with retarded substitutions and bad plays.4. I never saw them below 50 in any ranking at any point in the season.5. Unlike Jerome Tang, Wes Miller apologized to the Cincinnati fanbase and said he had done poorly and they deserved better. And thats about when they started to turn their season around.Honeslty they are the best team in Ohio, but thats really not saying much.

Big East bros I worry that our time of dominance is coming to an end. NIL, transfer portal, and 18 team superconferences have ruined whatever purity is left of this sport and the big east was the last bastion of pure basketball that could actually compete with the power conferences. Pretty soon there will be a 128 team ncaa tournament and that will be the final nail in the coffin of what used to be the greatest sporting spectacle in the world. All this so about 50 or so executive Jews can take home a few more million dollars a year.

For me it is the Auburn Tigers, the best college basketball team.
I am aware i am probably retarded but, can someone explain fouling to me? I understand fouls like holding, tripping, and pushing, but blocking fouls make no sense to me. What makes a block qualify as a foul. I see blocks that are called fouls and then a minute later the exact same thing isn't called a foul. Everytime I look this up stuff about preventing movement comes up, but I see things that obviously impede the offenses movement all the time that aren't called. Also intentionally drawing a foul make no sense go me either. Why is the defender at fault if the ball carrier intentionally does an action that essentially uses the defender as a tool to restrict their own movement.
>>153795445I’m retarded too but I think the definition is foot movement. If the defender’s feet aren’t moving the offensive player can’t just knock him over, but if they are moving he can.

>>153734139Do you find regular season NBA watchable?
>>153824942Do these get reseeded or is it a straight bracket?
>>153824027nta, but nobody finds it watchable. I think 90% of their fans are just gamblers.
>>153825402I've never enjoyed NBA but always enjoyed CBB which is why I was asking.
>>153827010NBA was great in the 90s and good until the mid 2000s or so. You could still play defense then and be physical. Now it's just a 3 chucking competition as defense isn't allowed anymore.CBB is getting there. If you go back just 5 years, only 3 teams shot 30 or more 3-pointers, with 31 attempts per game leading the league. Now it's up to 13 teams and 35 attempts per game leads the league. The only consistent team over the last 25 years on the leaders list for 3s is VMI, who is the modern pioneer of the 3-point chucking offense.
Air Force putting up a whopping 10 points in the first half.
>>153825360Straight bracket. >>153768706 is an example of reseeding.

Reseeding is the gayest thing in sports. Takes the thrill out of it
In a world where you can be anything, be a number 50
>>153831885No, it rewards the better ranked teams and punishes the lower ranked ones. It's superior in every way. If you don't want to see a #16 seed beat both the #1 & #2 seeds in 3 days, you're fucking retarded. It would be the most epic thing in sports history.

Miami lost their first conference tourney game
>>153836823I have a feeling they'll get a play-in game where the winner plays the #1 seed. CBB is going to punish them hard and set them up to fail as an example.
>>153833354No, they are rewarded with the initial seeding. There is meta strategies for seeding matchups and thinking about whonyou might play next in addition to that. From an entertainment point of view its fun having rooting interest in other games than your own, but it doesnt matter if everything just gets reseeded. So in the big dance if a 14 beats a 3, suddenly the one seed should get that 14 team in the next round? Only pseudos pretend to be in favor of that garbage.>If you dont want to see a 16 beat a 1 and 2 seed in 3 daysYou dont even know what the fuck youre saying. Its always the biggest retards with the biggest mouths. Shut it.

Keep your head up Florida st. You almost had em
>>153839592two seeds get the play-in games. this year it's looking like the 11 seed will be the other, which miami is projected in (but i'm guessing they'll be a 10 or even 9.
Miami will not make the tourney. They are the worst 30+ win team in the history of cbb. If they somehow make the field of 64, then Mount Union will make the FCS playoff next year.
>100% AI adswe're completely fucking cooked, aren't we

MY Idaho Vandals
Why isn't BYU a bubble team? They faded in the second half of the season.
>>153842471because the media said they were good at the start of the season and that means they’re still good, especially since they have a preseason all American lottery pick. This is how sports work

>>153842510man shut the fuck UP bitch
Why does UNC have such ugly fans? Clemson atleast has some decent looking girls in the stands.
There are ZERO reasons why a school that finished 11th in their conference with a 16 loss record should make the tourney as an at large.eSECpn is already trying to make this happen by saying Miami shouldnt make it in despite only having 1 loss. Be ready for some next level rigging

In football news, this is the schedule of an FBS team.
Why it is called Battle of the Blue Ridge?
>>153843045Miami OH vs Auburn would be a kino play in game, no matter the outcome the tournament starts with one narrative getting BTFO.>>153844578Interesting only the men bitched about it after the women didn't have any issues playing on the same court. Almost like male basketball players are a bunch of pampered, spoiled divas nowadays.
>>153847385They're both located around the Blue Ridge mountains, about 100 miles from each other. But it's not like it's a heated rivalry. They came up with the name just last year and the two have played only nineteen times.
>>153847563Looks like ass.
>>153847581That's pretty cool. I thought it was a Civil War reference. Have you ever been to the Blue Ridge Mountains? What are they like?
>>153847654When I was a kid we drove down the Blue Ridge Parkway, which was very beautiful. It's not just that you're traveling at high elevation (relatively speaking, the Appalachian mountains aren't the Andes) but also because the parkway has strict rules against things like advertising and unnecessary signage. Commercial vehicles are prohibited and there are no interchanges with interstate highways. The speed limit is at most 45 mph and often slower. The whole thing is intended for sightseeing rather than transportation.
>>153807844look at this shit. I miss the Pac-12 so much it's unreal
>>153847719There are zero UCLA, USC, Oregon or Washington fans who wanted their school in the big ten.There are zero fans of (original) big ten teams that wanted the big ten to become the soulless megaconference it is today. Sad state of affairs, the fans and players hate it but it’ll make Schlomo some more ad money in the short term so it happens.
>>153847741What we've lost. Penn State was the beginning of the end.
>>153847741Fuck the Pac 12, I'm glad >we left. The deadweight schools in that conference fumbled adding Texas and Oklahoma back in 2010 because they got asshurt over the Longhorn Network. That was the only chance for the Pac 12 to add bluebloods to secure its future and it didn't happen because shitter schools were jealous a blueblood might be allowed to earn a penny more than them off media rights. I bet those responsible for it, like Cal and Oregon State, would take a do over if they found a time machine after learning the hard way they need bluebloods far more than bluebloods need them. Most Pac 12 schools had a long history of making jealous, "cut off your nose to spite your face" votes like that and I'm thankful USC doesn't have to deal with it anymore.

Are universities/colleges with the best college sports records also the best for studying for a university degree or it depends?
>>153849838It's the opposite really. If you look at college football, all the Ivy League schools aren't even in the FBS. The best colleges have small enrollment numbers because they're picky so they don't take in all the low IQ athletes. The best college in the US (IMO) has less than 5k undergraduates and the 2nd best has less than 2.5k.

I don't watch much basketball but just saw it was on TV. So these conference championships...why do they let shitter teams in, exactly? I know Ole Miss won against Alabama here but why were they even allowed in to begin with? Football championships for college only have 2 teams...surely it should only be like 4 teams per conference right?

What are your rules of thumb for filling out your bracket? For me>when in doubt go with a big east team>blue bloods are generally a safe pick cause refs but theres at least one thatll get upset>Oklahoma is choklahoma and not to be picked after the first round>if the coach wears a suit they are more apt to win
>>153864737Additionally>Iowa state and Sparty can be picked to go deep but NEVER win it all>alma mater is winrar every year even though they havent won in a while because it helps make a deeper run possible (it doesnt)

>>153864040Because referees stopped calling most fouls long before they stopped calling traveling so the modern game favors teams that can push and shove opponents out of the way.
>>153860605>CUSA final is #4 vs #6keyed chaos conference
St. Johns Bigcocks are winning it all
racist bitch
Le Akron was le number 64 on the NET rankings. 3 team MAC????
>>153871291no chance given akron's weak schedule. even if toledo had won, MAC is just a two bid league
Did that last boozer missed shot even hit the rim? Am i crazy?
Why do all the coaches look like fucking gym teachers now? Hardly any of them wear a suit like a proper basketball coach.

You have to put Auburn in. Competed against the best teams in the country every single game and beat Florida and St. John’s.
>>153724805Where the fuck can you find streams these days? All of the streaming sites I used to use no longer work.I just want to watch the VCU game bros...
>>153884848>St. John’s.Even UK did that
>>153884958I think CBS is carrying itIf you get local stations for free can watch it
who /absolutelystoned/ here
>>153884958literally youtube nigger, there are pirate streams all the timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7XFUOpPwLU
>>153885060thanks. I do have an antenna I can set up I guess. still though, does anybody know the current streaming sites that actually work so I can watch the cable games during the actual tournament?This one >>153757074 doesn't include all games (eg there's no VCU game up)
Too many ngubus and a >black head coach on this yale squad. They were never gmi
>>153873457>Why do all the coaches look like fucking gym teachers now?Retarded brand shit. Coaches don't look intimidating nor daring no more NIL bullshit. Tom Izzo and others hate because how badly college basketball sport has become. It's now an NBA lite tier league.
This Acuff lookin zesty
Go USFIt's amazing you lost your star young coach and then got another one
Utah Valley lost. Not enough shooters
>>153886062they were banned, huh
>>153885625>Turn on game>Announcers: Spread is such and such, over/under, parlays brought to you by bigcasino.com>Referees more and more blatantly putting their thumbs on the scale to control outcomes of games>Retards: NIL is ruining college sports!
>>153870197Met a Duke graduate who doesn't follow sports
>>153863855>A Vanderbilt basketball fanRare. You guys shot lights out the whole game. Well earned W. You ARE a Vanderbilt fan, right? Because flexing another team's win would be mad small dick energy.
Miami of Ohio had a fine season, but they don't deserve a spot in the Big Dance. Beating up on a JV schedule shouldn't get you rewarded with a tourney birth over a team that challenged themselves. I wish them all success in the NIT, though.
>>153886611Faggot, Auburn fan or both?
>>153886611>beat who you have to face>beat who would schedule you>get punished for itHow is it their fault that the bigger teams wouldn't schedule them? I bet if a team like Duke scheduled them and blew them out, you'd bitch about it and say that Duke shouldn't be playing small teams.
Michigan getting BTFO this 2nd half
>Meatchicken
>>153886070They paid the fee, but I don't see much sense for them to go to the California conference (Big West); should've gone to Big Sky, Summit or WCC.
>>153887102I was joking, and I figure the guy I was responding to was as well, about kirk
Any memes I should look out for during Selection Sunday?t. casual who only pays attention to /cbb/ during March
BITCHEDAGAIN?
what's wrong with Michigan?
>>153887442what's RIGHT with michigan?
>>153887448They need more good White guys like Purdue.
20 MINUTES UNTIL SELECTION SUNDAY
every year at this time I try to avoid the spike Lee Charles Barkley Sam Jackson commercials but this year I'm slipping and already saw 2
It's not the same without Greg Gumbel :(
We doing another bracket challenge this year bros?
>>153887674Of course. see >>153879771
>>153887689>K.Parramore in the groupIs that prolific school shooter LeXplorer???
Someone make a meme with UMBC saying it to Vermont, Alabama, some good upset material team and Auburn at the end.https://youtu.be/z0aF9kSLpeY?si=A4ePx_FA9vJvKEZU>>153887247Some teams that made upsets on mid to late 2010s are back (Lehigh, Northern Iowa, Baltimore County).
Please leave UT Austin out
>>153887776Please God yes.If Ass to Mouth isn’t in teasips can’t be allowed either
>>153887783Another good option would be a Southwest conference matchup, but I prefer them out.
>OSU vs TCUSolid matchup
>san diego >east regoin why do they insist on this shit
>>153887835To benefit Cal Baptist
Did Rick Pitino's team get picked up yet? I'm not at my house.
CIVIL CONFLICT IN ROUND OF 32 LFG
Ohayo, do you believe that they can get to the sweet sixteen?
>>153887884They'll get Northern Iowa
This East bracket is like all blue bloods lol
>Tex Ass inFUCK YOU COMMITTEE
War on I-4 in the sweet 16
Longsaars...we won
>>153887918Smart move. Some people hate those teams and want unknowns to win. Let all the blue bloods eliminate each other and smaller schools win in the other brackets.
Missouri avoids First Four
>Gonzaga getting an automatic pass to the Sweet 16Every fucking time. They play a piss poor schedule with automatic conference wins and then get an easy route in the tournament.
>>153887715yezzir
It's sad that the NIT selection show is now on Twitter instead of being a show on ESPeNis.
>>153887999ESPN knows the NIT show gets way better ratings than the Woman's show and can't have that.
Why are teams with only 4 or 5 losses the lower seeds?
The Saint Louis logo always make me think of that wojak
miami (OH) in the first four
2 BID MAC2 BID MAC
>>153888067"Strength of schedule" and other bullshit. The reality is that only well known teams are allowed to be the best seeds.
>>153888071The Reddit wojak? Absolutely lol
>don't lose your first game until mid-March>get put in the play-in gameNothing personnel, kid.
>Santa Clara vs Kencucky
Man fuck Akron for fucking Miami’s entire season
lmao weak ass bracket for Michigan. Shits so rigged.
>>153888071How the hell has anything to do with that rancid image? It looks more like a goblino or a troll.
>Kentucky #7I fucking called it >>153849536
>>153849536Six seven lmaoSorry
Does always HBCUs get the 16 seed?
Iowa!!
>>153888136Surely Steve Nash will be present to see Santa Clara beat Kentucky, yeah?
>Gators a 1 seed>in Tampa Shit IS SO RIGGED
>>153888101>beat literally nobody with a pulse all season>have to beat a team with a pulse to get in the tournamentWorking as intended
>no CincinnatiTo the NIT they go
>We get the potatoes
>Oklahoma fist team out (I think)Almost a potential Red River Shootout.
Auburnsissies...not like this...
>>153888196They could win the play-in and beat Michigan and people would still say they shouldn't have gotten in.
>>153888264No, we'd be too busy laughing at Michigan and the B1G
>>153888183Florida, a 1 seed, gets to play a 16 and 8/9 (the best 8/9 seeds in the field) in Tampa. Hardest ovetall region and if we advancr to elite 8 we play Houston in Houston.Yeah you Florida derangement syndrome fags are mouth breathing retards.
>Have to wait until 9:30pm to see the NIT selections
>>153888317Shut up zipperface
>F4 and Natty on TBSWhat the fuck is this horseshit
>>153888334Blame the women's bracket, which nobody will watch because of the WBC USA game.
If you lose exactly one tournament meme game but win all regular season games you deserve at-large because you have shown dominance of your conference and really should have been in as the autobid as a flukeThis shows that the line for small mid majors who played no one is one loss (that usually has to come during the conference tournament) but that is very fair.
>>153888370I think it's 2 years each channel (TBS and CBS), last I remember watching on TBS was the one with Taco Tech.
So SDSU is guaranteed a #1 on the NIT? I don't think they'll be invited to the CBC, although Mountain West is in contract with FOX.
feeling excited boys
Whats Kentucky's play style like? Can Santa Clara beat them?
>>153888785idk shit about santa clara, but i would wager no. kentucky plays pretty sound ball and you gotta play really well to beat them
How do VCU and North Carolina match up?
>>153888935UNC's best player is out and they were mid anyway with him but at least he gave them a fighting chance. VCU has only lost 1 game since January and can hit threes and UNC is awful on perimeter defense.
>>153889488hell yeah
I go to michigan but I may need to cop a LIU jersey
https://x.com/i/status/2033355756964081732>Auburn & New Mexico inSo SDSU, Oklahoma and Indiana would be in the CBC, correct?
>>153890998>Okie State went here instead of the Crown
>Florida plays at 9:30pm Friday, then Sunday>Play winner of Iowa/Clemson who starts over 3 hours earlier>Every single other game in the bracket is Thursday/Saturday, giving every team an extra day of rest over Florida before ge next weekend>If they advance to the Elite 8, they must play Houston in Houston>2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 9 seeds are all the highest kempom rated teams of their respective seedsNice 1 seed advantage. Wouldve been better off as 2-5 seed in Arizonas cake walk bracket
>>153892185Houston has played Auburn in Tuscaloosa and Purdue in Indianapolis in the last two tournaments
>>153892244Ok so more evidence to 1 seeds not getting all the advantages people say they do?Who cares if you play near home against a 16 seed if you have potential S16 and E8 games on the 2 seeds turf?
the "common knowledge" upset picks are wrong more often than not, and I see just about every media figurehead picking the same three first round upsets: UK/UNC/Louisvilleexpect at least two of those to win R1 and one to make a deep run
>four Ohio teams in the tournament
I got $10 to throw away. What is the likeliest 1-16, 2-15, or 3-14 upset to bet on
>>153893364Penn against Illinois
>no /sp/ ESPN tournament challenge groupDed sport
>>153893771READ NIBBA, READ! >>153879771
>>153892185Last year we had to play UConn in the 2nd round and how did that work out? Gator Boys don't need "an extra day of rest." That's for teams that don't stay hot.
>>153892185Look at how stacked the East is, too. How about spreading those fucking teams out? And the disrespect toward Rick Pitino, making him a 5-seed and making him travel all the way across the country. The tournament committee is almost as retarded as Oscar voters.
>>153895338nigga it takes 5 hours to fly chill
>>153893422yea i watched penn in the conference tourney and they have dawgs, DAWGS win in march same reason im picking miami ohio fuck anal lickdick nerds
Which is better: winning the NIT or losing in the first round of the NCAA tourny?
