2023-2024 College Basketball General Discussion

Sickening this Duquesne team gets in the tourney automatically & made the A10 get 2 bids when they only really deserved 1.
Idk...A10 was stronger this year than most. I think 2 teams is alright. But what 2 teams is the question.

I'm a huge Dayton fan growing up there, but I think they'll be out in the first game. Maybe Duquesne too.

I'm close to taking chalk in the brackets this year. I'm not liking B1G or A10 at all this year. Which means you should pick those teams, as I'm often wrong.

I really wish referees would learn how to correctly call offensive fouls. When the offensive player drops their shoulder and initiates contact by banging into the defender that is not a foul on the defensive player who has established position..

Joey Brackets scored 336 pts (he had 67 out of 68 teams right) finished in 169th place

Jerry Palm scored 323 pts (66 out of 68 teams right) finished in 214th place not bad out of 227 people !

The winner scored 355 pts (67 teams right)

8 people got all 68 teams right (including 2nd place)

I scored 350 pts good for 8th place tie (I got 67 out 68 teams right) I am not on bracket matrix but I do these myself each year but I have to tell you ever since a million people started doing them it really isn't any fun anymore it was fun when it was early 2000's and it was just Joey, Palm and myself doing them and I was smacking Palm around year in and year out. I thought was impressive clearly not everyone does it now.

These are the 2 guys getting paid to do this haha

Scores were down for everyone as the MWC seeding by the committee killed everyones scores

Also I hate the I ran through his hip instead of the middle of his chest therefore it's a defensive foul. Is the defender slid over there are the last minute yes but if it they were stationary it's still an offensive foul

What an abortion from Virginia in the First Four. 14 points in the first half and 25% shooting on the night

Virginia had scored under 50 points in 3 of their previous 7 games as well. A team that just stumbled into the tournament on their earlier season performance. I know you have to account the whole resume, but the committee should be able to put more stock into recent performance.
