2018 NCAA Basketball Tournament Discussion (Official Thread)

Watch them hammer Nevada.

Just because they're playing Nevada, I went over and read the shag thread. Jesus H. Godbastard Christ. Many of them are not only predicting a win over Nevada but also of taking out the juggalos. So much arrogance and so little actual achievement out of that school. I hope the Wolf Pack of One busts out a plunger on them.

Texas over Nevada is my favorite bet of the first round. Then again, I haven't really watched Nevada, but I know they have no one talker than 6'7" and 7 scholarship players, coming from a league that, of late, outside of SDSU has stunk in the tourney. Texas has an elite defense and physical mismatches in their favor. I really think Texas should win the game and don't think it will come down to the wire.

IOW, I got $500 that says Texas kicks Nevada's ass.

Ted Valentine refs one game outside the Big Ten and the rest of the country realizes how awful he is lol.

And now he's whining about not officiating in the Dance. The article is a must read, as Valentine plays the victim card, then the hero card, and just generally litters the article with quotes showing just how he's completely lacking in self-awareness. You want to know why you're not officiating in the tournament, Ted? Because you're a terrible, terrible ref. It's not because there's some big, unjust conspiracy, you clown.

The thing with Berry was silly, but of all the reasons to leave "TV Ted" out of the tourney...
What he did to Berry is nothing new for TV Ted. I have seen him turn his back on numerous players over the years in very similar situations. The problem with the Berry one is that it was a UNC player in a high profile game. HE needs to retire anyhow..

virginia just announced that de'andre hunter is out for the tournament with a broken wrist. though not a starter, this is a massive loss. hate to see it, too. they were going to be my pick for a title. bennett's team has played some of the purest basketball i've seen in a long time.
