Unfortunate 1st round game against South Florida. Jose Fernandez is a great coach and his teams always compete and if we get by that 1st round, it's probably Ohio State.

Both teams we can beat, just depends on which team shows up.

I would assume Ohio State will win their first round game, but the committee really decided to put 3 pressing teams at one site. Montana State probably won't have the athleticism to be competitive, but they are 2nd in the NCAA in turnovers forced per game.

Women's Bracketology: UCSD seals first bid, Harvard's win keeps Ivy intrigue alive

After Harvard sealed its NCAA tournament spot, the number of Ivy teams in the field remains the biggest Bracketology question.

Ivy League likely to get more teams into the tournament than the Big East.

Buuuut, Big East teams likely to go farther than the Ivy League teams!

Maybe Montana State’s press can tire their legs some for when they face us in less than 48 hours.

And she told not one lie! They should’ve been the #1 overall seed.

 

[NoBackBoard]

I understand Dawn’s frustration, but the No. 1 overall seed just doesn’t lose on their home floor in February by 29 points. You just can’t defend that.

Not to mention they lost the head to head against No1 overall UCLA.

Zero grounds to complain. Not a good look.

Good call. The committee lady said the margins of the SC losses was the deciding factor.

IMO UConn has an equal beef. They should have the one and Texas the two seed. But very fortunate for us that didn’t happen

 

[knoxvol52]

Here's all the feedback Dawn Staley needs 77-62 UCLA.

 

[KnoxLikeUs]

As always a lot of chatting.. it’s time to dance. If it’s Texas or UConn doesn’t matter the LVs are focused.
The Lambo Vols ran UConn off the court at Food City Center!
Take it one game at a time starting with South Florida.
GBO.

Geno has an absolute cakewalk compared to the other 2 seeds, he's probably grateful for it this year

Time to see how wrong Charlie Creme is again. Let the messed up predictions begin...

I think I will do a full analysis on his predictions this year...I saved his final one before the reveal just to do this...will take a couple of days though,,,can't sit for more than an hour at a time (sometimes not even that long)

Crème filled out a bracket….

Thanks. I have ESPN plus so was able to see the picks haha.

Actually pretty solid unlike his bracket predictions haha. He has TN beating oh st and losing a close one to Texas. I wouldn’t be surprised to see SC and UConn in the championship game either.

 

[37620VOL]

We doing a bracket pool this year? I can't remember who puts that together?

 

[LV renaissance]

seeding is of very little consequence in tournament if your expectation is to win it all

Until you look at the stat that 11 of the 12 past champs were #1 seeds.

edit: I saw Freak has just put up bracket pool for the forum. Feel free to do his, it has a $50 gift certificate reward. This one can just be for fun and you can do both if you like. Either way, I didn’t know Freak was doing one, no intent to get in front of his.

Ball State makes the tournament for the first time since 2009 and ends up as a 12 seed again against a SEC team. Hmmm

Louisville as a 7 seed with a possible round 2 matchup against their former teammate Van Lith.

Go Lady Vols!

We all remember that Ball State game.

I just remember being so frustrated we had no point guard. It was so hard to watch.

I hope we have learned how to handle the press. We have had some problems with it when other teams have used it.

what i am saying is no quibbling needed on seedings if you are the best doesnt matter who you play in opening rounds

 

[LV renaissance]

The Athletic picked the 10 most likely upsets in the first round, and this fortunately did not include the Lady Vols. Interestingly, the number 2 most likely upset was Montana State over Ohio State. They said that the odds of this were at 25 %. That would be awesome. What's number one? George Mason over Florida State.

I could see Florida St. losing in the first round or making a run all the way to the Elite 8, especially if Flau'jae and/or Morrow have lingering injury issues.

I just tried out ESPN's autofill feature on a bracket, using their analytics, and it has us going all the way to the Final 4 before losing to South Carolina.
