Phew! I had NW winning the championship in my IL bracket.
Don’t forget —— B1G has not lost in the NIT eitherB1G is 3-0 going into the later afternoon/evening sessions. If Wisconsin avoids an "upset" to a very good JMU team, the B1G has a very good chance of going 6-0 in the first round (I really like Nebraska over Texas A&M).

And IU declined their NIT invitation which I consider a win also LOLDon’t forget —— B1G has not lost in the NIT either
In case you needed any more evidence the results of a single elimination tournament aren't the be all end all for assessing a teamThis is the FAU team that returned 8 of 9 top players from the Final Four run last year?!
That team SERIOUSLY underperformed.Shine wore off of May.
They were an 8 & lost in overtime to a 9.That team SERIOUSLY underperformed.
I think it was more "Clemson hasn't been a good team in a month and didn't deserve a 6 seed, so New Mexico should be the better team in this matchup".So that "New Mexico is actually good and should have gotten something better than an 11 seed" storyline is on life support.
If Wisky plays like they did against us, they win.B1G is 3-0 going into the later afternoon/evening sessions. If Wisconsin avoids an "upset" to a very good JMU team, the B1G has a very good chance of going 6-0 in the first round (I really like Nebraska over Texas A&M).
Last year they were a 9 seed that won the CUSA tournament and caught a huge break when Purdue lost so they could walk to the Sweet 16. That sweet 16 they played really well and squeaked by 2 teams.They were an 8 & lost in overtime to a 9.
I don’t think that’s a remarkable failure.
They caught fire last March. That run isn’t really representative of their larger body of work.
