The last time we played them in March Madness we almost beat them.
If any basketball players are reading this thread. Y’all need to let it all hang out!! This is your time to shine
If a UBMC or a Loyola-Chicago can get into the sweet 16 or Elite 8, then y’all should be able to do it. Y’all are quicker faster and more athletic. Time to put this team on the map.
Time to ride or die !!
Last time they paired up Louisiana and Tennessee, it took a phantom call for Tennessee to move on.
Those are just 2 that I've seen this am...UL is going to be a tough out for anyone.
True.Quote:

neither of those two opponents seem to give us the opportunity for the powers that be to choose us to be one of the potential “cinderellas”
Yep. Flat out stole that one from us.Quote:

Seen 2 other brackets that have UL as a 13 vs 4 Xavier...both in different locations...Also saw 1 that had UL as a 13 vs Virginia...
Xavier lost their star player in late January to injury and it was just announced his season is now over.Quote:

I thought Louisiana was a 12 vs Tennessee.

Thanks
Correct another misconception, in 82 and 83 was an 8-Seed the lowest seed, or were there 12 then?
12
If the Greensboro scenario were to play out, DaBoot might actually a chance at being right about his sweet 16 predictions. Get past UT who lost their best guard to an ACL last week and I'd like our chances against Creighton or either of the play in game teams.Quote:

It’s time that we shake some ____ up around here. I’m with DaBoot. Sweet 16 let’s Geaux!!Quote:

Wow, four conferences have their tournaments in Las Vegas, and that is not counting any conferences that have completed their tournaments.Quote:

GEAUX CAJUNS!
So far, with 11 conferences decided, there are 5 champions with NET scores worse than the Cajuns. Assuming that at these levels seeding will be determined by NET score, we need 13 champions with NET scores worse than ours to secure a 13 seed [5 16th, 4 15th and 4 14th]. Right now there are 6 other auto-bids [America East, Big West, MEAC, Patriot, Southland and SWAC] guaranteed to have champions with worse NET than ours. That gives us 5 #16, 4 #15 and 2 #14, making us a lock for a 14th seed.
To get a 13th seed, we need upsets in at least two other conferences. Of the remaining conferences only two have only one team with a better NET than us, so keep your fingers crossed.
As long as avoid a 16 or 15 seed or a play in game, I'm happy.Quote:
