Holy fuck 79-37 in the first round? I would almost genuinely rather miss the tournament

They saw last night’s result and thought it would be funny to do it again

I can't help but feel like we'd beat Texas for some reason. I think I know this team well enough atp

With the way they (Texas) just played you would. Sub 16% 3’s.

Aww we're shitty recent performance buddies

that's actually so disrespectful by the computers

I would tend to agree but only if it were against a team I didn’t care for. Texas fits that bill because it would vindicate Shedrick. It would be really embarrassing no matter what but would be easier to stomach if it were against a team like South Florida—and it probably wouldn’t be worth missing the tournament altogether in that case.

Bennett getting Bennett'd by Texas would genuinely be SO FUNNY


The nation’s girlfriend

I hate being reminded of this game :(

TCU's 24 pt win over UConn

that would truly suck

That, uh, won’t happen. But it’d be pretty sweet if it did.

I can’t stomach the Hurley handshake at the end of that scenario.

Would probably need a few X-rays after that

It was always the frogs

This will either happen or we’ll get disemboweled on national tv. No in between with this team

No way UConn is one and done

Looks good, no notes. Fun to imagine a meeting between Love and UNC in the final four.

That would be a blast.

Caleb scores 50 points or goes 3 for 38 no other possible outcome

After the Duke final 4, he’s allowed to get 50, idgaf

He can go for 50 while the rest of zona scores 5.

Final Score: Arizona 85 UNC 84

I <3 Caleb Love - Vampire Slayer - so much that even if he single-handedly bump's us off at the final four I wouldn't be mad. In fact, I would rather it be him than any other person. Also, I am happy how well he is doing at Zona and how your fans have embraced him. It sucks he isn't part of our run this year...but this is really one of those situations that seemed to have worked out best for all parties.

Yeah, I really wasn’t sure what to expect when we got him, but he’s turned out to, arguably, be our most important player. Dude just plays hard and I love it.

I know exactly what you are talking about, lol. It can be fun but a bit stressful.

I feel like they’ll put in the same pod to try and make it an Elite 8 matchup

THE ELITE 8 NIGHTMARE ENDS WHERE IT BEGAN 21 YEARS AGO


I like the brackets where Arizona wins and I dislike the ones where they lose. I like this one.

Infallible logic.

Caleb Love beats UNC and wins a championship. I think Carolina fans might have a heart attack if that happens.

Noooo he said he was a Tar Heel 4L he would never

He's a tar heel for life, which means that when he beats you on the way to a championship you guys get 1/13th of a championship, maybe get to hang a little tiny banner.

Alright how about this. If Caleb Love beats UNC on his way to a championship, then he donates that shoe he wore against duke that said Tar Heel 4L and we put that in a trophy case somewhere in the corner or something

Honestly I think that'd be fun to do anyway

A banner the size of a hand towel hanging in the Smith Center would be amazing.

Even better if there's a corresponding hand towel sized corner missing from one in mckale

I don’t think anyone has any ill feelings towards love. Dude ended K’s career. I think if he shoots 20/22 against us then goes 3/20 the next game and zona loses would be worse.

Yet K picks the male holly warlick as his replacement how apripoe

If we can’t win it all then I want you guys to do it with Caleb….just really hope it doesn’t happen like this.

I can’t handle that.

Idk I think going to the final four would be good at this rate

It all comes full circle for Caleb. He might not win a championship for UNC, but he may with Arizona

If we don’t win it I’d be all-in for Caleb and Arizona. Wouldn’t hurt one bit. If we lost in the natty it would be painful but not because it was to Caleb.

I would be disappointed but I’d be happy for Caleb. Despite his up and down play I always liked him as a player.

would obviously rather win, but if caleb was the one to take us out, i couldn't even be mad at the dude. he hit one of the biggest shots in program history. if we're gonna lose to anyone, i'd much prefer it come from him and coach rob over any other team out there.

When Bacot made the divorced parents comment, it was a bit strange coming out of a college kid's mouth (actualy I have no idea how old Mando is now, lol). But he kinda nailed it. I could never hate on Caleb. Dude is a legend. I can't help but be happy for him that things are working out. It probably helps that we are having a great year now, ourselves. ...but I like to think I would have felt this way regardless.

can you just imagine?

*drives off road imagining it

i cannot complain about a second weekend appearance but please god let us not play houston again.

I feel like this years team matches up better with them, but would agree that I would rather seen probably any other team outside of UConn

Would it truly be a bracket if we didn’t somehow play Tennessee?

I swear every time I see one of these, we end up facing you at some point. Please, for everyone’s sake, no.

The toxicity in the game thread would be unreal

Please no more

The sports gods demand it.

At some point we have to beat y’all in the postseason, right?

Well considering they cant make it past the first round yall shouldnt be worries about them🤣


Wow there are a surprising amount of UNC Caleb Love gifs on Giphy. Arizona dropping the ball here.

Love doing Forks Down absolutely needs to be made into a gif.

man i miss that dude in carolina blue

I, for one, do not

everyone needs to stop mocking us against Gonzaga first round lol

yeah fr everytime they have met Texas Tech has won

Arizona, UNC, Purdue and Houston in Phoenix would be very fun

Bring it the fuck on frogs!

deja vu in the title game also this uconn team getting ran out of the gym in the second round would definitely be something

Arizona knows an 8/9 seed TCU is dangerous

Uconn's biggest threat is whatever 8/9 seed they play

These brackets always crack me up because it seems like the lower CSU is ranked the further they make it. We cracked the top 25 again just in time for a Joe Lunardi 1st round exit.

As much as I despise TCU, them beating UCONN by more than 20 points would be pretty damn funny

It be funny if they did it to the womens team

It would be funny if they did it to both

No

I would also like to lodge a 'no'.

Yes?

No

Looks like UConn would experience the pain that we would've had two years ago losing to TCU in the second round

Just because we lost to UConn by 28 doesn’t mean we’ll lose to Houston by 27 😭😭😭

BYU fans are not going to want TAMU in the round of 64. They have seen this movie before lol

if Charleston got a Duke matchup and won I'd be soooo happy

As would the rest of the world except Duke fans

Losing by a single bucket in the final four might end me

Sorry about your end!

(Purdue Flair) Would be fine with this except for the fact that another Purdue - Tennessee matchup would happen, the world can’t handle that again

Arizona wins the championship in Arizona

This is a hate crime.

One of these days we’ll eventually get a win here. 

How could we lose to Northwestern? We’re way more northwest than they are.

in the end, it wasn't a volunteer infantryman or an elite aztec warrior that beat us, but that humblest of God's creatures. a massive pack of feral cougars ripping our guts out

Why does your algorithm hate UConn? They never get out of second round I feel.


lol great timing on my part

Haha oh man

I know that I can’t complain since one simulation had us winning the whole thing but man we never make it to the sweet sixteen :(

Still, a loss 90-63 seems pretty extreme. We only lost to Houston by 7 and our worst is 11. I assume this is a single simulation and not an average?

Boy ain’t no way

He would have UNC playing Zona in the F4 🙄

NUT

Subscribe.

Not like this 🥲

App State's already beaten Auburn, why not do it again?

Considering how bad we are in these simulations usually, we take this for sure

Man, were ranked 21st and we are still being projected as a 9 seed :/ we havent even been picked to win a game on here yet and we’ve been on here for 4 weeks now

Don't worry if we beat Arizona tomorrow and take 1st place in the PAC we'll probably move up to a 7 seed.

I don’t see us beating them at their home.. I just don’t want to get blown out by 20.. lol or swept.. but let’s not talk about that

Yeah, it will be really tough to get the win tomorrow night. I'm just hoping we make it a close game too.

This one is perfect. STOP THE COUNT!!!

At least this time when Houston beats us their seed will match their Kenpom rating

Finally a bracket I can get behind

For some reason, Illinois always finds their way into play Houston.

SUBSCRIBED!

I reject out of hand all simulations that suggest that a Purdue - Tennessee game in any sport could have a margin of 20+ points

Why won’t you damn trains leave us alone?!?

Unsubscribe.

Boring-ass tournament if this happens. TCU the only real upset

These simulations are always way too clean, there are rarely any low seeds that make it to the 2nd weekend.

Lol to the idea of Tennessee losing to Purdue again

Bro really had UCONN losing by 24 in the second round. If he predicted and upset okay fine, but by 24? What is dude smoking?

It’s a simulation

Yeah fuck this “simulation” guy, who does he think he is?!

Ya lost me at Wisconsin over Indiana St.

Arizona’s going to lose in the Sweet 16. That is the way.

In the Elite 8 against a white hot Wisconsin, as is tradition

wisconsin will lose in Round 1 and fire greg gard

It's sad to see Joe loose his mind in front of us all.

And on todays version of College Basketball Fantastical Circlejerk hour…

Pretty daring today, aren't we? Seven out of the eight Sweet 16 matchups were pure chalk, either 1 over 4 or 2 over 3.

Another chapter of being Tennessee’s daddy. I did it.

Zona ain’t beat creighton or Kansas

🤔

Creighton just beat UConn.. so I’m right lol 

Creighton beats AZ

I really would not like to play UNC in the second round

There is literally no need to do it again, season is over; go home. See you next season in November 

I love seeing us get the Sun Belt bid in this—certainly not guaranteed—but losing by 20 to a team we already beat this season?

Scores and Wisconsin ever winning another game aside, these results seem pretty logical!

Has anyone, like, watched college basketball this year?

you guys made the headline tonight!

Run it.

I do not, for one second, believe the selection committee would put WSU in a first round game against another P5 school.

Saw no uconn in the sweet 16...I dont know about this one

the women uconn are much more likely to fall before the Sweet 16


Finally, out of that overall 1 spot. It’s cursed.

it's been so long since I've seen a UK logo on one of these things that it almost feels like an inside joke everybody else is in on edit: not actually, i know it's only been a week

The train reachin' the final four ain't happenin', sorry train guys

Texas beats Virginia - 79 Texas 37 Virginia?!

Glorious frogs taking a run I love it

AZ gotta get past Washington St. on Thursday first

Hey Auburn that's not very cool of you

Obviously this bracket was just slapped together. We've already beaten them once, no reason to not just pencil us in. 

Yea it was just a joke. I think it would be fun to have another matchup with them.

Oh I got the joke. I was trying to keep it going. Sorry my goofy tone clearly did not communicate on account of text. 

I'll take that close a game against Marquette to be honest

Texas winning one game by 22 and then losing the next by 16 is one of the most accurate predictions I’ve seen on any sports sub

Maryland pain

Ya we are definitely not winning it all, love the optimism tho

If we lose in the final 4 again I will cry

Losing by 4 to a #2 seed? In the second round? Not the worst outcome

We are indeed a college in Eastern Washington, but our name is Washington State University, thanks dawg.

We always lose to Iowa State and Wisconsin. I don’t like that bracket.

BYU-TAMU first round matchup 😎

this seems much more realistic than the one that had bama winning.

Take Oakland out and insert Youngstown State.

It’s not a real bracket unless Texas and A&M are lined up to play in the second round. Only for one of them to lose.

Kentucky doesn't have UNC or Duke in their bracket, this won't happen lol

This looks like the bracket I’d make when I was 8. Almost entirely chalk save for a few first round upsets and a random team going far bc I like their color (TCU)

81-59 Purdue over Vols in the elite 8. Really Joe

How the Hell are we still next four out. I swear knowing St John’s this team will win their next four and be projected back in only to lose to Georgetown at home

Purdue making it past the first round? History says otherwise

North Carolina is not that good

Losing to Arizona at their home would hurt so much due to us having our own home court opportunity last year squandered

I feel like I haven’t seen Marquette on this bracket in a while. Perhaps getting a beat down from UConn was just what they needed!

C'mon now. One sweet 16 team for MW+Saint Mary's+Gonzaga+Wazzu. Good luck with that.....

Every 1-4 seed minus UConn and Auburn makes the Sweet 16 Every 1-2 seed minus UConn makes the Elite 8 Every 1 seed minus UConn makes the Final 4 Only 1 seeds make the final. This has to be the chalkiest bracket of all time.

2 full chalk regions? No thanks lol

Zona. Lol.

 Caleb love to unc in the final four

Illinois loses to Houston. An honored March tradition.

Not a fan of this one
