I'm ready! I LOVE March Madness! (Both women's and men's!)
Here we go, praying for favorable matchups
We avoid S Carolina's bracket.
Nebraska and Aggettes in the Trev Alberts bowl #2

OU wins the Big12 and gets a 5 seed
KSt finishes 3rd and gets a 4 seed

Jeff Walz vs. Nina Davis and Mid Tenn St in first round, matchup with Kim in the 2nd round
Look what they did to poor little Rice
Really thought we were going to be the 6 headed to Baton Rouge for a second there.
No SCar, no Iowa, no LSU, hopefully not a return trip to UConn
Best. Case. Scenario.
Bracket Gods love Baylor this year.

Going to Virginia Tech, nobody knows if Kitley is available or not. that would be huge depending on how we can get to the second weekend. Without her I like our chances with her it is hard but do able.
BU needs to go practice at HOT Coliseum, because the arena at VaTech is a giant Quonset hut-shaped barn.

That's how I feel. Even if Virginia Tech has Kitley she won't be 100 percent she and Georgia combine for 42 points per game.
Pretty good draw if you ask me, could've been a lot tougher.
Now... just win Lady Bears!

3 of the 4 #1 seeds did not win their conference (but won their tournament):
OhioSt won the Big10, Iowa is a 1
Stanford won the Pac12, USC is a 1
OU won the Big12, UT is a 1
OhioSt won the Big10, Iowa is a 1
Stanford won the Pac12, USC is a 1

I hope Drexel is low key giant killers
Iowa State got a tough draw...all the way to Stanford

I like Baylor's draw and glad they got a 5 seed. As good of a path as you could hope to get to the sweet16 without hosting
Iowa may have a tough time with West Virgina. LSU get UCLA pretty early.
Yes. I am also glad we got the 5 seed. Two seeds higher than last year!
How did Texas A M get in. They were 6 and 10 in conference and lost 6 of there last 8 games.
Va.Tech may not be your opponent in the next round.Marshall is a very dangerous team much like WVU.They rotate players constantly,many capable 3 shooters and press more than WVU.
Best case scenario indeed.
A #5 seed?
Playing 1st round against one of the play in teams?
Perhaps playing Virginia Tech without Kitley?
Avoiding the South Carolina and UT brackets?
Sic Em! Toss it up and let's go.
It's Oklahoma (#5) and Iowa State (#7) who have legitimate complaints this year.

Kenny Brooks not officially ruling out Elizabeth Kitley for the NCAA Tournament.

Still taking it day-by-day in practice, and says her health and safety are of the utmost concern. Did not confirm it's a knee injury but said "lower leg/lower extremity."
Does anyone know game time? Or when it will be announced?

Not sure how to think about playing a play-in team. I think I would rather have had an already set opponent. It would seem that you have to prepare for either up until the last day or so and whoever you play has already shaken off any rust and played a game. We will not have played in two weeks.Leonidas said:

VT has size. Even without Kitley it could cause us some issues. Don't look past Vandy either, they started off the year strong and have potential with their defense.

With no Kitley at 6 ft 6 inches tall their tallest is Clara Strack at 6 ft 5 inches tall which Clara is a bench player. After that it is 6 ft 2 inches tall at forward.
We've gotta get past Vandy or Marshall first, all the talk about VT can wait.

Vandy or Columbia you mean. Marshall is first round opponent for Virginia tech.
Correct, and 6'2" is still taller than our starting "center" ... was just saying they have size and we don't.

but even with Kitley teams like Virginia were able to beat them without size. All they is Kitley and Amoore, if you can stop them or get them in foul trouble you have a great chance to win. I think of the Texas game we can defend their bigs but what hurts us was when you can bring a 2nd or 3rd big off the bench. I do not think V Tech has that.

Hopefully we can semi recycle the game plan we had for Utah.
