NCAA Tournament 2026

[Billy Hoyle]

This is why I chuckle at talk of SLU to the Big East. 1957 was their last Sweet 16. They've never had more than 3 consecutive bids. Their fans are talking about how sustainable this is when they've never sustained success ever.

They can get back to us after they play a couple games in April or make 8 tourneys in 10 years.

And they didn't have to win a game to get to that Sweet 16

I want to see a good seed get knocked out due to overinflated basketballs. Only then can I stop my blood sacrifices and heal my decrepit soul

I'm in a diabolical mood today. Tell me more about your blood sacrifices.

[MuggsyB]

TCU has a chance.  Certainly Texas has a shot.  It would be nice to see some close games. 

[MuggsyB]

According to Barkley the Michigan performance was the best he's ever seen.

[MuggsyB]

Do we really need a talking 🏀 prop?

Wow, just wow. 

[Tarragona]

The round of 32 is SLU's peak. They've never won more than one game in a tournament. Even during their best three-year stretch in program history (2011-12 through 2013-14), SLU's runs ended in the second round. I guess they'll always have those back-to-back NIT runners-up years to hang their hats on while getting US Representatives to beg for them to get into the Big East where every program has at least made an Elite 8 and all but two a Final Four (Creighton and Xavier).

What does any of that have to do with my post since you quote tweeted my post? I was just talking about a game. It's also kind of a weird rant coming from you. Your are a SLU Law alum. Correct?

[MuggsyB]

That was an absolutely ridiculous call in the Duke/TCU game.

Yeah furthering my point on the flagrant fouls. They're just getting way over the top with these. "Hey kid, you can either brace your fall and get called for a flagrant foul, or break your neck."

Every MU loss is another high wake speed jaunt in a fishing boat through the manatee reserve

Exactly.  That's seriously a joke.

Yes

[wadesworld]

Refs miss a clear goaltend, then T up Jamie Dixon for telling them. Just compounding it.

[MuggsyB]

Dixon doesn't look particularly happy.

23 to 7 in the FT department.

Ya....I thought it was a gtend at first glance.

very shady stuff going on

[BM1090]

Jones instead of James and I don't remember.  What a butcher

Not sure why you're taking this personally. It's not just MU games. It's most games he does.

It's not surprising now that he does hundreds of events per year across 4-5 sports.

He's a good announcer, he's just being asked to do too much

[MuggsyB]

Wow.  We really need a competitive game.  Houston is absolutely throttling A&M. 

[MuggsyB]

I didn't realize Jefferson is likely out for ISU. 

[MuggsyB]

Who do you think will be the best pro among:

Dybantsa
Peterson
Boozer
Wilson
Flemings
Acuff
Wagler

Ty.

Wow, just wow. 

Hey now. That's LaMelo Ball's grandfather you're talking about.

[MuggsyB]

Dybantsa

Same. 

[SoCalEagle]

Let's go Zags. Need a better second half to win this one.

[Pakuni]

Dybantsa

Agreed, but it wouldn't shock me if it's Acuff.

[wadesworld]

Agreed, but it wouldn't shock me if it's Acuff.

Yeah I agree. Or Peterson. I think his "camp" was guiding him poorly and realized it, which is why he's now playing every game/every half.

Incredible talent in this draft.
