I feel for Mississippi State. 0.1 second away from a NCAA appearance.

How about Ill? Never got two shots off in reg and OT for possible win vs OSU.

Duke gets the easiest region? That's unpossible!

T-minus 20 minutes until Dickie V says the South is the toughest region...

Here come the haters.
You're right. All the haters on the selection show just stated that Duke was given the easiest road:dodgy:

Oh well they will get bounced in round two just like usually when the are giftwrapped a great seed.

OSU definitely got screwed. Not only do they have KU and GTown in their bracket, but their second round opponent could be a tough go as well...

I also can;t understand how Duke got the #3 overall 1 seed ahead of Cuse..

Interesting, per a Kansas message board, Jayhawks' fans are less than thrilled about OSU being in their bracket, and the bracket in general:

As they should be. As the overall #1....they certainly didn't get any favors.

I like that the committee didn't have too much heart.

I don't think, unfortunately, that getting close to the automatic bid is getting the automatic bid.

The entire season matters. Though Miss State and Illinois, to some degree, looked like good teams at the end.

Well, if they make Duke the final #1 seed, they'd have to ship them out West, and God forbid Duke have to travel...

(The South Regional is in Houston, but it's still closer than Salt Lake City)

cbf-correct. Even though I still think KU is the top team and the favorite to come out of that region, that's fricken brutal they got so many good teams in their bracket as the #1 overall seed.

BAB-as as big a KU fan you can find, i am extremely worried to see OSU in our bracket..you never want to see the team with the POY in your bracket, especially when his surrounding players are good as well...like yeah it would suck to get KSU in your bracket with Blake Griffin, but they're not really a threat to do much...with osu it's different, they're actually a good team haha Just can't believe this..but oh well, gotta have confidence in my team and trust that Bill Self can get his team up to be the best team in the country, as they definitely are when playing to their fullest.

One things for sure, that midwest region is gonna have some good ass games.

We'll have to get together and watch that game if it happens.
For sure Ewok! Prestige Worldwide motherfuckers!!!!!!!!
You know it.

Anybody else get the feeling that slingshot is still smarting over the 2003 National title game? LOL. He really does hate Syracuse.
I don't hate Syracuse. I hate Carmelo Anthony and Gerry McNamara. "We wouldn't have won 10 fucking games, not 10!!!!!"
