whitesoxfan101 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Here I go!! 1. Tennessee gets a 2. EVERY #3 and #4 seed has a better resume than Tennessee. Go ahead and check for yourself, it's true. Tennessee if they get lucky makes the Sweet 16 to be blown out by Michigan State or North Carolina. 2. Jim Nantz and Billy Packer- You 2 can f*** yourselves and go to hell. Sorry that all the at large can't be high majors like you want, assholes. 3. Illinois a #4: Iowa a #3 and tOSU a #2 is fair, but Illinois a 4?!?! Come on now, we are f***ed even if we survive to the sweet 16 and play UConn. Illinois finishes #2 in the #1 league in America, beats UNC at UNC....and we get a #4 to UNC's #3. Nice. 4. GW an 8. Yeah they are overrated, but an #8? LMAO, your kidding me. 5. UCLA goes 0-2 against a damn good Washington team. UCLA gets a #2 and Washington gets a #5. Also, Washington gets a #5 and Nevada gets a #5. Great job committee!!! 6. Air Force gets in over Missouri State? That isn't a joke, it's MUCH worse than that, it's pathetic. Have you seen Mizzou State's RPI?? It's about 70 spots higher than Air Force. Also, congrats Indiana fans, I think I might have you going to the Final 4 (and i'm pretty good at picking that) and I like how Duke is the #1 overall seed, yet the worst #2 seed BY FAR is in the UConn region, and Duke will get GW in the SECOND ROUND!! and then possibly LSU and that freaky athletic squad. Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnB Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I'm going to go on a record and say I have an awful record in this year's tourney. Usually i finish top 5 every pool, but this year, I have no clue what the f*** is going to happen in way too many scenarios. Oh yeah, to stay on topic ILLINOIS AS A 4 SEED IS BULLs***.

WHarris1 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I'm still trying to figure some of this s*** out. Tennessee a 2 over UNC and ILL...um...wow...even drunk AND high that is stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 BTW, Illini fans, we should calm down. UConn is tough as hell, but besides that.....we have to beat an NIT team, a Washington team that doesn't defend, and either MSU or UNC, who we are 3-1 against. That's not TOO bad, but of course UConn is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every damn year we get the short end of the No offense, but you did see the bracket we got last year right? #16, Nevada, UW Milwaukee, a #3 seed Arizona.....first 2 in Indy, second 2 in CHICAGO...then Louisville in St. Louis before UNC.

Chisoxfn Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Despite the low seed, Ill is in one of the easier brackets. Only thing is they have the best team in the country as the #1 (despite there loss to Cuse). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing is they have the best team in the country as the #1 (despite there loss to Cuse). I wouldn't say the easiest, but other than the #4, we weren't screwed too bad to be honest. UConn is a b****, but other than that it's an NIT team, Washington, and either UNC or MSU, who Illinois is 3-1 against. Not too bad to get to the Final 4, but I don't see any way we beat UConn, which is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our bracket wasn't fantastic last year, Arizona and OSU were a tough draw for sure anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My statement is pretty damn accurate, if you can get by your last year only method. I can, and I still disagree. But maybe I'm just going the other way due to being tired of hearing our fans talk about how we get screwed over. I just can't think of a past year where we got screwed over in our bracket, there could be something I'm forgetting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
