naiwf 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 Yeah, UConn deserved that overall # 1 seed after losing to a then bubble team in their first match at the Big East tourney, while Duke went out and won the ACC tourney. Nantz is a fucking idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwpeer 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 I always forget how much I hate the selection show. So lame. The year ESPN did it was cool. They gave all the 65 teams and then they analyzed. CBS? Nah, we gotta wait longer. Yeah, they would reveal entire regions at a time and go over them all, it was pretty informative. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 I always forget how much I hate the selection show. So lame. They should make it seem like an event, instead of three middle-age guys sitting in a studio and just making the announcements. CBS is too boring and traditional to make this show entertaining because they know we will watch anyways. It used to be you'd have to wait until your local paper the next morning had the brackets filled out or sit there and write them down as the show went on. Now, ESPN and the rest will have the printable brackets @ 7:03 PM ET. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted March 12, 2006 Wow GW gets an 8 seed. they sure fell with that lost to Temple. Sadly I could see them taking out Duke in the second round Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted March 12, 2006 These brackets are already fucked up... how can Syracuse be THREE seeds higher than GW, who had 2 losses... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwpeer 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 ROFL Cuse got a 5 seed... A&M is gonna blow them out unfortunately GW vs. Duke in the 2nd round could be a HUGE game. I personally can't WAIT for that EDIT: Misread that, thought LSU was playing IOWA, couldn't read that fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naiwf 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 Gumbel's fucking up a lot here. Wow, GW got an 8 seed. LMAO. That's worse than the year the Zags got jobbed Duke got a cupcake ride to the Sweet 16 there, but I've got the 'Cuse taking them out for a spot in the Elite 8. Texas looks like the best team in this region despite being the lowest ranked 2 seed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jwpeer 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 I can't believe the cbs analysts actually said WVU v. Iowa is the interesting 2nd round matchup EVERYONE in College Basketball Fandom is DYING to see GW vs. Duke, that's THE game. EDIT: Iowa is gonna destroy WVU if they play, that big linebacker white guy center dude whose name I can't remember is athletic enough to take Pittsnogle out of his game, and Pittsnogle is a poor interior defender.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 Looking good for the Colonial though when you look at the seed for UNCW. And if a win over Texas is going to carry in Texas A&M, things might have seriously improved for Florida St getting in. I still think you'll need 20 wins to get in. Also, who the hell CARES how the teams who KNEW they were in react? It's like, "wow, we knew we were in...ok...you want us to act happy again?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fazzle 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 Goddamnit. UNCW actually gets a 9 seed......and gets paired up against GW? How the fuck did GW fall to #8? Fuck, another first round exit for Wilmington. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gert T 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 Syracuse is a top 20 team now. GW did get screwed over because they did play well without Mensah-Bansu. Hopefully he'll be healthy enough to have a great game against Duke in the 2nd Round. Gumbel trying to sell how happy GW was made me smile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
