Don’t see us beating FSU unless they do one of their March chokes.

But I like the draw of our region as a whole

Wojo needs to bring in Junior Cadougan to pump up the team like he did last time.
Have some patience, FFS.

I honestly don't like any of the potential match ups.    My initial gut says MU is the 5/12 upset.

Um, after NYC, I don’t think motivation is a problem.
Zenyatta has a lot....a lot... of ground to make up. She gets there from here she’d be a super horse......what’s this.....Zenyatta hooked to the grandstand side....Zenyatta flying on the outside....this....is...un-belieeeeeevable!...looked impossible at the top of the stretch...

Everyone said Murray St would beat Marquette in 2012 as well.

I am usually the optimist.    I will probably become more optimistic as the week progresses.    Right now, my initial reaction is uh oh.

Its a tough draw. Murray State is a good team. FSU is really tall and athletic. Vermont will have a ton of fans and if they make it to the second game it will be like a home game for them with the crowd.

The two teams I was hoping to avoid early were Murray State (big name star looking to prove himself) and Florida State (physical defense with length).

We're getting both of them.

If Sacar can stay out of foul trouble, MU will be in good shape against Murray St.

Wow - A little while ago, people were concerned we would get screwed with a bad seed. We got a five, and now everybody here is worried…

We got this.

Like the first round draw. Don’t like much after that.

It might be more important to keep Theo out of foul trouble.  Murray does most of their scoring at the rim.  They're 6th in 2pt%

Don't mind Murray. One stud and then what? They went 1-1 against Belmont and beat nobody else that matters.

Agreed with most on FSU, but when you're facing a top 12 team, it's not going to be easy regardless.

Go Vermont.

If MU plays like they did Thursday against NCAA tourney team St. John's, it doesn't much matter who they're playing....they're gonna roll over some teams.  Can't wait till Thursday!

We’ve lost 5 of 6 so we could lose no doubt.

But this is not some terrible first round match up. It’s definitely one we should win.

Who cares ... he talking BS on TV

They have no imagination ... they have all one seeds in the finals.

They should stick to tweeting about games they do not watch ... Seth Davis is the pro at this.
