I don't know what Xavier will do, but I figured he would have been gone earlier.
I personally think they lose by 10+

Maryland isn't good, but Xavier should be in the CBI. They suck without Sumner. An absolute disgrace they aren't in the play-in game, but K-State or Wake is. Did the committee not watch Wake and K-State play very quality teams competitively in the conference tournament? Xavier hasn't played a quality game in a month.

They are 1-7 against teams not named DePaul, who might as well be a low major school, since Sumner's injury. I hope they get blown the fuck out of the NCAA's.

Yes, I'm still salty the committee basically ignored Watson's injury and seeded a team as a 6, when in-reality, they should be in the NIT.
You already went there lol

That was tame.

I'm still salty because the NCAA clearly factored in the Nerlens Noel torn ACL in leaving a 21-win UK team out in 2013. We all know that led to the Robert Morris NIT game, which the desperate still pull out as a jab. That injury happened on 2/12, UK went 4-4 after it. Xavier went 5-7 without Sumner, 3 of those wins were over DePaul, another was over a depleted Creighton team. They finished 21-13 and aren't even in the play-in game? As for Creighton, a 6-seed? Wow. A gift to everyone else in that bracket, especially to Oregon...wait, you guessed it, also should've been lowered due to injury.

GTFO.

Oregon beat 4 top 50 teams. 2 of those were Utah. The Pac 12 ranked as the worst P6 league, by a large margin, one of the worst overall in the last decade.

Boucher isn't their MVP or star, but he's the equivalent of UNC losing Meeks, Kentucky losing Adebayo, etc.

I guess I differ from everyone else when I think teams should be seeded on the actual team that will show up in the tournament. Not on a resume built with guys who won't be there.

Now this is the response I like to see when making picks. I really wanted someone else but couldn't pass those two up, haha.

I think at least 10, but 12 would be ideal.
