The problem with this is that they'd be the hot team flyin' high and playin' with house money in the S16. And really, how good was the B12 compared to Pac10?

I hope for a 2OT grinder with lots of cramping and maybe a few blisters (after we were able to empty our bench again and nobody played more than 30 mins.) and whichever OSU it is it is.

I see at least one double-digit seed advancing, and it would not surprise me at all to see more

Most best brackets so far (1 with 31 correct predicts and 17 with 30 predicts) predict us to be the national champion (8 out of 18, while only 2 predicts Zaga, which is the tied-2nd place). As a comparison, out of all brackets nationally, 34.4% predicts Zaga, and 15.2% predicts us.
Does this mean people who understand the tournament best think we will win??

Illinois and Baylor have the two hardest (maybe 2 of the 3 hardest) opponents for top 8 seeds today.

Hot Sports Opinion is Wisky beats Baylor. If Tech, ORU, Wisky, and UNT wins, Tech will be the highest seed in the region at a 6.

It means this thing is a giant crapshoot.

No comments since before our Loyola game says it all...Wiscy stayed closer to Baylor than I expected. Go Beavers

Nothing like watching effing Syracuse on their merry way to the SS to leave no doubt that some higher being wants all Illini fans to suffer for eternity. And to boot, if they and LUC both advance again, guess who plays exactly the defensive scheme we needed in our arsenal today? There’s no other explanation.

Maybe all of the top seeds in the region can go down hard and then we can agree we got the most brutal bracket.

Watching Rutgers full court press and alternating m2m and halfcourt zone, makes me wonder what could have been against Loyola for us.

Rutgers vs loyola in elite 8?,...mercy!
