2025 NCAA Tourney Thread

[MUeng]

Didn't realize UNC was that bad. Some serious corruption there, that's not a tourney team

[KolekThrees]

When are tip-off times announced?

[GoFastAndWin]

I'm jealous of X's draw

Yes, but will the play-in being in Dayton really give a home court advantage?

Yes, Texas fans don't travel, but the Daytonians (with nothing better to do) in attendance will be vocal against X I would presume.

No. 3 seed Michigan wins three games in three days over Purdue, Maryland and Wisconsin to take home the Big Ten tourney title — its first since 2018.

Huge way for the Wolverine to go into the NCAA Tournament after losing their final three games of the regular-season and missing out on a Big Ten regular season title. That's a three-game winning streak that stacks up as well as just about any in college hoops this season.

good for MI but imo winning the regular season title is a bigger deal. Long haul compared to 3-day hot streak.

West Virginia beat

Gonzaga on a neutral
Arizona on a neutral
Iowa State Home
AT Kansas

Absolutely insane that UNC got in with a 1-12 Q1 record.

I just saw that apparently they are the first team to ever be unanimously in on bracket matrix, and not make the field. All 111 brackets had them in.

Terrible draw...I wouldn't wish Cleveland on anyone

ain't that bad. I have family there and trust me, there are worse places 😂

Milwaukee

Don't know a ton about New Mexico, but certainly can't complain about that draw.

0-3 vs Dad. Maybe we beat jr

Milwaukee

Cleveland has a higher number of dentists per capita

[MuggsyB]

In all seriousness Montana is more of a #16 seed than a #14. 

[Viper]

Did they seed this tournament in January?  UCONN and Creighton both seeded lower than MU?

no kidding hey. We go 1-3 vs them head-up and finish below them in the BE. Ridiculous.

People still don't understand how this works.

Odd reaction from a Marquette fan.  But wait, in reality we know you are a Badger fan.  Don't forget Marquette dominated Wisconsin at home - one of our easier victories of the year, actually.  And we beat Maryland and Purdue.

Now, go tell me who UCONN and Creighton beat in non-conference?

[cheebs09]

nor do we care

Clearly

[The Sultan]

nor do we care

Then why are you commenting on it?

I mean, we beat Maryland, Wisconsin and Purdue, and they are seeded higher than us right?

[PointWarrior]

no kidding hey. We go 1-3 vs them head-up and finish below them in the BE. Ridiculous.

And we were told by no uncertain terms Marquette is an 8 seed.

[The Sultan]

Who told you that?

[tower912]

Beating four high major teams in the ooc probably strengthened MU'S case.

[Shaka Shart]

Plus a close loss to St Thomas last year

[Small Orange Soda]

nor do we care

A perfect encapsulation.

[MuggsyB]

Where are the times??? 

[BM1090]

nor do we care

Yeah, checks out

[The Sultan]

Wisconsin tipping at 11:30 am Mountain time in Denver seems suboptimal for them.
