I don't think I'll be around to see this tournament but I hope Mars University wins, Go Reds!

L-l-legitimately shitty??? No. They are easily the best offensive team in college hoops right now. They don't play defense, the coach is rumored leaving, Lamar Ball is a giant asshole, and Bryce Alford is slumping, but I'd still say they are far from "shitty". They have the talent to beat any team in the tournament by 20. And if someone played a lick of defense that night it might even be 30. I'd honestly take the Bruins against against half the teams in The NBA in a pick up game style first to 15 by 1s and 2s. Oh and Lonzo Ball is already an all-star caliber guard
in the east


Also TJ is my boy, don't be rude.

tj might be your boy, but like.

theyre not a good team.

they had troubles putting away a nebraska team that shot 38% until 4 minutes left in the game.

them playing defense or not doesnt matter to me that much, but uh.

I hate to say it, but their first two games are SO. SO. Fucking easy that they COULD. Roll through super deep. But uh. I wouldn't be on it.

I really dont like UCLA.I dont think theyre a good team.

Exciting team to watch? Yeah sure. good team. nah.

If put them on the court against NBA teams, there's at least 5 teams where they'd have the best 2 players on the floor. And Lonzo would legit be the best player on the floor half of the time.

Take that to the tournament, only times in their region they won't have the 3 best players on the floor is against kentucky and UNC. They'll have 2 against unc. 1 against UK.

They are objectively not a bad team.

And they hung nearly a buck on uk a week after they "struggled" against Nebraska.

I haven't watched any college basketball this year, and I applied almost no thought at all to my predictions, but there we are.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

March Madness is shifting half the TV shows I watch by like 2-3 weeks and this bothers me.

Tonight I'm either going to look really smart for predicting the Wichita State or Michigan upset, or really dumb for doubting Louisville/Kentucky. More likely the latter :(
