South carolina over Crayton 2nd game

[HuskerBB]

Would rather see Oregon and Dana Altman beat Creighton in round 2

[No Place Like the Vault]

Or Oregon

Lol ofc we got Memphis. Just happy making it and we deserve this 8 seed. It's typical they'd go for the spice and give us A&M. Guess the rumors were true on memphis

Thinking Michigan State might be out ?

 

I was wrong they got in at a 9 seed.   Personally I am glad they got in and think they deserve it.

Revenge! GBFR

Texas A&M shoots 39% from the field and 28% from three. Defensively they don’t have any rim protectors. I watched them earlier this year and they did not look like a postseason team but they’re hot right now.

Oops. Missed the last one. Well, got the matchup right at least. 

[REDZONEDAN]

Makes me really happy that Nebraska made it and Wake Forest didn’t.

Can't afford to take them lightly.

Gotta keep their guards from getting to the basket.

Expert analysis from Jay Wright about MSU and the "tore-nuh-munt":

 

"MSU is playing very well right now. They haven't won any games, but they're playing really well."

 

Sounds about right, except for the first part.

That early season win against the dukes is looking really good right now too.  Haha. 

[Cazzie22]

I think some of the Regionals are not well balanced. Iowa St was under seeded. 
 

Texas A&M is a tough test, but it should be.  All of our focus must be on defeating Buzz Williams and the Aggies.  Alberts is a non factor. Houston can wait.

Gonzaga as a 5 seed?  They were supposedly playing for their lives like 3 weeks ago.  That’s a bit surprising to me honestly.  

 

benefit of the doubt I guess.

[Huskerpapa]

Quick take, personalities of A&M coach Buzz Williams and Husker coach Fred Hoiberg couldn't be more different.

WE DANCIN'!

Good losses = playing well.

I'm going to predict a 7 seed with Iowa State in Omaha.

 

If Nebraska had won yesterday & made it competitive today, I think that's what would have happened... and A&M at a 10-seed. DAMMIT!!!!!

Hitch into the Long Beach State wagon. Similar story. Went on a ~6 win run to close out the season. And on top of that, their coach has already been fired but still coaching.

 

Former Gopher coach, if I recall correctly....

 

[HolyBobpilgrimage]

Time to scout the aggies! Should be good. We can beat anyone, I love this team. All focus on game 1. This is gonna be fun. Glad we got a Friday game, I'll be in Omaha all day thurs

[Keenan9595]

29 overall seed is nice though, we were very safe for all the hand wringing haha
