Here's a bet - which group will the NCAA champ come from:
1) Gonzaga or Baylor
2) Big Ten
3) The Field

Feel like you can remove #2. Baylor sure looks good though.


Illinois is the perfect example of the overrating Big 10. They get a couple of freshman bound for the G-league coming back and suddenly the media started rating them top 5 preseason? They beat absolutely nobody ooc (got crushed by Baylor and lost to Missouri) and somehow ended up with a #1 seed...

The B1G Flop continues... Latest Victim: Rutgers

Stony Brook Red, Connecticut Blue, and Big East basketball!

They look too good to be a 15th seed.

Looking at the midwest region, the 4 remaining teams are Oregon State, Loyola Chicago, Houston, and Syracuse. I'd love to be in that quadrant but of course it was the one region with no BE team.

Big Ten has laid a giant egg.
PAC 12 has been pretty great but that could change if USC, Colorado, and Oregon don't advance today.

PAC got the best draw of any power conferences, but yeah they look sharp so far. Big 10 will suffer another humiliation unless Iowa starts playing defense for the first time this season.

The B1G's performance reminds me of 2011 Big East sans Uconn. Pretty embarassing performance.

They’re losing as higher (1,2, 4) seeds too.. it’s not like these are 9 & 11 seeds from the Big Ten losing. Embarrassing.
Nebraska by birth, Creighton by choice.

Damn. What a joke. Its 2PM on Day II of the Round 32 and the B1G still has no S16 representative
