That would be very interesting! Honestly, though, I don't think either team will go that far. I hope I'm wrong for both.

I also don't have either going that far but it would be cool to see!

Wiscy looks kind of shook
James Madison looks really good. They're the type of mid-major the committee really doesn't know what to do with.

But that's a brutal 12-5 matchup for Wisconsin.
This match up just screamed both teams were poorly seeded.

TCU's defense is about as porous as our southern border..

GCU is absolutely crushing St Mary's on defense the last 5 or 6 minutes. Getting a block or steal on near every possession. Or both.

I didn't get the St Mary's hype and this game is proving me correct. They're getting destroyed (so far) by a much much more athletic team

Thanks to a mini run the last couple of minutes.
How about a Drew vs. Drew in the Elite 8?
Grand Canyon has looked really good in this second half. The Grant-Foster kid is big time, and they've got some really nice role players around him.

Saint Mary's is another one of those good programs that always struggles in the tournament.

They put good teams on the floor every year, but for whatever reason, they're not built well for March.

This game's not over yet. Saint Mary's got the deficit down to five.

I'll say this, the GCU crowd support they got for this game is unreal. Not sure if they brought it up earlier in the game, but they must have bused up 1000 students. Crazy! Supposedly their home games are raucous as well.

Jake Lindsay sighting. Apparently, he is on GCU staff. I did not know that.

They are a "for profit" university



They've had some allegations of being deceiving....

Listen to them talk and you'll know immediately. They sound extremely similar and share many of the same speech patterns.

Another metric favorite the spreadsheet only crowd loved. Needs to be balanced with the eye test, which this St Mary's team fails.

I'm not sure the FTC, or any other federal agency, is very trustworthy. They routinely abuse power, lie, falsely accuse Americans, cover up other crimes, & generally engage in all kinds of illegitimate & illegal activities.
