Baylor as a 3 is a gift to us.

etank34 · Post by **etank34** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:34 pm

Fuck, BYU

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:35 pm

Baylor will kill us with their zone. Kill us. Terrible matchups.

dirtbags · Post by **dirtbags** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:36 pm

wow, kellogg likes Arizona over baylor?

billk78 · Post by **billk78** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:36 pm

Our half of the bracket is easier than Wiksy's IMO.

Memory lane bracket for CSM.

etank34 · Post by **etank34** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:36 pm

Go Dayton

etank34 · Post by **etank34** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:37 pm

Well...if we're going to exorcize that elite 8 demon, you might as well do it against your worst enemy.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:37 pm

UCLA being in is a joke. Still can't believe it.

Lol stfu.

I don't know what some people were expecting, it's never a cakewalk to a final 4. Our team is amazing. People are scared of us, not the other way around.

I want the return of the s curve, geography be damned.

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:38 pm

Gotta beat vcu, Baylor and Wisconsin To get rewarded with a final 4 vs. Kentucky. Wouldn't be surprised with a 2nd round or s16 loss with these matchups

dirtbags · Post by **dirtbags** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:39 pm

feeling pretty good about our draw. i love march.

thenewazcats · Post by **thenewazcats** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:39 pm

We are the best team in our region. Play hard, don't get bent by the refs, and we're in the F4.

WildHolcs · Post by **WildHolcs** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:39 pm

Well, the least we can say is this could be a nice revenge tour for Coach Miller. Payback for that heartbreaker a few years ago against OSU (thanks Jerrett), and for the wisky game last year. Wisky is the one team I prob wanted to avoid because they just don't make mistakes but if we play up to how we've been we can def beat them.

Exactly.

I also agree that Wisconsin has a tougher road than Arizona as far as trap games. If Oregon gets hot from outside they can take em

You should probably just quit then.

ghostwhitehorse · Post by **ghostwhitehorse** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:41 pm

Xavier as a potential S16 matchup. . .

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:42 pm

So we would've been a 2 even if MSU hadn't choked.

SCCats · Post by **SCCats** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:42 pm

We weren't ending in UKs bracket in any case so the only thing to avoid was Wisky and there were probably a half dozen ways we could have avoided them and none of those came to pass.

Nope, they make the one bad scenario occur.

Thanks fuckers.

CatMG · Post by **CatMG** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:43 pm

So how is Oregon an 8 seed when Utah is a 5 seed? I know the Cats had their way with Oregon but one would think that Oregon was playing better (sans the game(s) against the Cats) down the stretch than Utah. Utah may be over seeded and Oregon under seeded IMO. And UCLA shouldn't have been in (although I like having another Pac-12 team in).

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:44 pm

So UCLA got in because they played us well. And here I thought winning games was important.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:44 pm

I fear no team. This year is all about redemption so bring on Wisconsin and anyone else who wants to step up.

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:45 pm

Craptastic seeding this year.

This reminds me of SHB's post about luck playing a big part in winning nc's. We were granted no such luck unless wisky loses to a lower seed. We shall see but this looks like a rough road. Maybe Bash can continue to shoot 70% and we will beat them anyway.

pokinmik · Post by **pokinmik** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:48 pm

We play Thursday. Time TBD.

True. But BaSh is, unlike last year, present, healthy and sharp. Bring on the Cheeseheads.

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:48 pm

Why is everyone so afraid of Wisconsin? Almost beat them last year without Ashley.

Nick choked end of game, TJ won't do that. RHJ has really stepped up his defense.

Ashley and Johnson are playing really well.

Tarc's defense has also improved quite a bit.

It really is. Will make the Final 4 that much sweeter.

i'm glad ucla made it in. hope they string together a nice run. go pac-12!

Yep. Just don't let them rain 3s and we might even rout those fucks.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:49 pm

I don't get all the fear of Wisconsin. We're a better team than the one that played them last year. The issue was scoring, and we can do that this year.

If Kaminsky scores 40, can we keep the rest of Wisconsin to 25?

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:52 pm

You are on crack if you dont think wisconsin is the second or third best team in the nation right now.

PieceOfMeat · Post by **PieceOfMeat** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 3:52 pm

why did wisconsin get absolutely gifted oregon in the 2nd round?

why was ucla even in the tourney?

why was kansas a fucking 2 seed?!

why....oh fuck it I give up. This committee was shit, absolute shit, in how the seeded and who they let in.

fuck em all, let's just go beat whoever is in front of us.

Wtf are ppl upset about? This bracket is not THAT tough for this team we have. The team we have this year is very tough all around. Not worried about anything. I hope we meet Wisconsin.

dirtbags · Post by **dirtbags** » Sun Mar 15, 2015 4:00 pm

meanwhile on espn, jim calhoun picks uk, wisco, duke, and "i think" uva over nova. zzzzzzz...

VCU hasn't looked that great lately with the injuries they have suffered. I don't know if they even get past Ohio State.

Committee is basically saying play a hard schedule, doesn't matter if you win or lose.

Yeah. Play as many games as possible against tough teams. It doesn't matter if you lose 8 games. Just play tough ooc games.
