Would love for AZ to be our 1. They are a finesse team

I think it's likely Dayton/Michigan State in the 8/9 game, and we'll be in the 10 in the last bracket. But damn, I'm getting nervous.

Yeah, we just had to be in the last bracket announced.

MSU vs MSU

That's a good matchup for us, I think.

YES!

UNC in Charlotte.

Told yall

I'll take it!

Nice! Let's go fellas!!!

Do we like this matchup?

Lets do it boys.

I do not like playing Michigan state in the tournament

I will take it. Tolu can bully Bacot if he will decide to. And Jeffries or Matthews will shut down Davis.

Gonna be a physical game. Michigan State has a great defense.

We're basically playing ourselves. I would much rather face them than someone that can shoot the lights out

Holy cow. Hardest draw ever. Tom Izzo, then UNC, then our cryptonite team in Alabama should we make the sweet 16.

We are very similar teams.

Us- 50 offense/20 defense Kenpom
Mich. State- 57 offense/8 defense Kenpom

Play like we did in the SEC tourney and we have a helluva shot.

Going to be a slugfest.

We just play like we did this week and we'll be fine.

Exactly!!

I dunno myself. Whisky, Illinini, and Purdue didn't impress me. Hadn't watched but a little bit this weekend tho.

Not crazy playing Izzo tho in 1st round game. He's a really good tourney coach. Then UNC in Charlotte will be pretty tough.

Gotta come out the gates like we did last 2 games.

Just make our layups!**

Some guy on the College Sports channel on Sirius/XM thinks we can beat UNC and get to the Sweet 16. Hope he's right. Of course, gotta prove we're the real MSU first.

That would be a good thing. We miss against not so good Ds. A little concerned if Izzo's D is #8. He can coach.

Some interesting comments about Grand Canyon advancing to the Sweet 16 over Bama and although I think we can play with Purdue we definitely drew the weakest 1 seed. Keep in mind that if TN beat us they could have been the 1 instead of UNC.

We are 2-0 against big 10 this year. And that was without Toulu and the updated version of Hub.

I don’t like Bama being that 4 seed. They are just an awful match up for us. We really need to hope they lose if we can win our first 2

Now I've got to go find a correct bracket because at 6:00 PM ESPN showed us playing Utah State (I didn't get to watch the selection show). WTF?
