2026 NCAA Tournament General Discussion

It doesn’t matter what region Michigan is in if they are on their A game. There is a reason Michigan has a chance to become the first team to have a 40+ rating in Kenpom since 2002. Their stats/metrics and results show this. Luck has nothing to do with it and comes a distant 4th compared to skill, execution, and coaching/preparation.

Their sweet 16 matchup was going to be a team rattled by a key player missing no matter who it eas and they got to play an ass Tennessee team in the elite 8 because the 2 seed Iowa State got slammed by injuries. I don't care what anyone says there is some luck in that

2026 NCAA Tournament General Discussion

Going back to my post from earlier round. It seems like it’s just a strategy? Play wild, out of control ball and pray your guys hit a ton of 2-pointers?

All while giving up 3’s and not playing defense.

Good stuff, Tommy Lloyd. I see why you choke.

Well choking implies that you had a chance. They didn’t have a chance. Michigan was a bad matchup for them even though I think Arizona is a hell of a team. May using EC with the bigs at the top of the key was genius. It wasn’t that Arizona wasn’t playing defense. Michigan’s pg play and execution led to Michigan making it look easy. Michigan doesn’t really have many if any weaknesses on offense when they are clicking.

scUM lucked into about the easiest road to the final 4 anyone was getting this year. That helps too.

wtf you mean "soft"? they fuckin stood guard on that M at the 50. that's some tough man shit right there.

It legit looked like they spent more time practicing that piece of performance art than practicing for the actual game.

Someone like to explain how Infinity gets calculated at the end of the week for K:BB?

I have 2 guys now, and sure you guys have it as well, that don't appear to be counting in that category yet for the week.
Depends on if they have 0K’s and 0BB’s, or 1+K’s and 0BB’s.

Just re-watched last years game. TTUN was such a soft team. Ohio State led most of the game. And as the weather got worse the good guys got better. We dominated both sides of the line because we were the most physical. Like I said, TTUN was soft and were shutout the entire 2nd half. They never came close to scoring. And their last Offensive play was an INT by Mr. Underwhelming! A soft and inferior team on every level. From the coaching staff to the water boys they were exposed. Then, their imposter of a coach was exposed for the fraud that he is.

OH

Don't see any PSU kids in the portal. Wonder if their NIL coin for wrestling meets or exceeds their football team?
They have by far the largest NIL pot. Some kids go there knowing they could be a paid backup. But the big names get a handsome payoff. Nobody is close to their NIL pool.

But at least we were fortunate enough to get an 8 seed and not get blown out by the 9 seed in the 1st round!
We had a chance at Dusty and Calipari. The former who actually wanted the job. I'm not his biggest fan but he would've brought some much needed energy to the program.
