Remember when they tried saying the ACC deserved to have 10 or 11 teams in? Six ACC teams have already been knocked out of the NCAA and NIT tournaments.

Is it just me or does it seem like Wisconsin is getting hosed by the refs?

I get ptsd everytime Wisconsin shoots a 3.

I don't like WVU's press. And they have the endurance to run it. Could give a lot of teams trouble.

Nova not playing well and catching Wisconsin on the wrong day. Stars are aligning for Duke. Feel like I'm gonna barf

Nice subtle shove by Wisky

Of course Wisky plays well, they are playing the wildcats. Ugh, I just can't stomach Wisconsin playing Duke for a trip to Glendale

Villanova choked in 2014, 2015, 2017. No sweet sixteens despite a #2 seed, and two #1 seeds.

Something in the water in those northern midwestern states.

Of course helps when Nigel Hayes doesnt get the Nick Johnson treatment when clearing out on game winning drives...

FSU has to be the best collection of talent coupled with really bad coaching that I have seen this year.

Agreed. Clearly a fringe NCAA tournament quality team. They are getting squeezed heavily by the zebras IMO though.

Too frontcourt heavy IMO. Raethen-Mayes is okay but overall they simply don't have the guard play to be great. Even if they had better coaching.

The guards may not be elite but you can't tell me that they wouldn't be a hell of a lot better if Izzo was coaching this bunch

This is truly some one sided officiating. At least a 7-9 point swing minimum based off of the stripes. Pretty sad.
