The Official NCAA Selection Show Thread (Monday May 27 NOON EST ESPN2 )

[vol94]

That’s what using sick days is for….lol…I’m hoping for a couple ticket books for the entire thing to hit the market…I’m ready to buy some tickets!

As a manager, please don’t mention sick days, . Someone always calls out sick when the branch has another on vacation. .

Anyone surprised that the storyline of Chase Burns and Wake Forest being a potential opponent in Super Regionals ?

Bring them all on, line them up knock them down.

As a service to the Southern Miss lurkers hitting the forum this afternoon:

 

[txbo]

It looks to me like Beavers have the easiest path to a super.

 

[Bigvalley84]

Bring Southern Miss on and if it rains they can seek shelter under the porch bleachers , what a **** show that was for our guys

 

[Christian Lowe]

It’s not a bad draw.

wake is. none of the rest are. but if anyone has a book out on burns, it's frank anderson now. we'll see

I have a 5:30 flight Friday evening. So I’m not sad about the early game. Of course, we’ll then be at Disney World and will have a tough time watching the Saturday and Sunday games. I may have to watch on my phone while standing in lines!

I sense opportunity. Make a dinner reservation at Disney Springs somewhere at 7 pm on Saturday. You know, to let everyone unwind and get off their feet and have a good meal. It’s not your fault if House of Blues has a ton of screens and the Mouse is airing its stuff on all of them.

don't sleep on tulane. they're not what they used to be, but they're not what they have been super recently either

 

[SGMVols]

If Wake gets greedy and tries to save Burns for ECU, I wouldn’t be surprised to see VCU beat them. Wake was not good away from home this year.

As the overall #1 seed Tennessee earned the right to have the easier path to get to the CWS.

Do you see any of the other Super Reginal Hosts having an easier path to the CWS than Tennessee?


1. Tennessee (50 - 11)
2. Kentucky (40 - 14)
3. Texas A&M (44 - 13)
4. North Carolina (42 - 13)
5. Arkansas (43 - 14)
6. Clemson (41 - 14)
7. Georgia (39 - 15)
8. Florida St. (42 - 15)

 

[AllThingsTN]

So we’s gots about 2 hours to find out who’s comin to town.. I’m interested but a litte more interested to see who’s in the regional across from us. I’m thinking 1) ECU 2) Wake.. we shall see

Ding ding ding…not that it was hard to see coming.

He's that rare guy who's play elevates when he's amped

The harder he throws the farther it goes!

I don't know how they got Kentucky in this group, they didn't even win their conference tournament??

 

[MAD]

Unfortunately I have this annoying @$$ thing to do that day, some call it a job.
I may be “sick” on Friday...

You big baby, you cried enough and they switched the time.
Did you call your girlfriend Donde?

 

[txbo]

Miss State is going to go to Virginia with a real chip on their shoulder.
Hoos going to have their hands full.

That’s what Donde calls me...”baby”

I don't know how they got Kentucky in this group, they didn't even win their conference tournament??

Because they finished tied for 1st in the regular season in the best conference in the country that means more over 30 games than a 6 day tournament. They also had the most Q1 wins in the country and played a top 10 SOS.

And going into Hoover they still had a shot at 1 overall.

None of those teams won their conference tournament except us. There's only two conferences on that list, lol

 

[Volgrandpa]

If you want to be the last team standing in Omaha, you have to beat them all. Bring em all on!!!

 

[AllThingsTN]

ISU’s best win is probably one win over Southern Miss. Blasted by Vandy, Illinois and the other 2 games vs Southern Miss. They’re 4-6 on the road vs teams with a pulse and they haven’t played in front of 7k fans like they will in Lexington.

Their games at TCU in last years regional was pretty close and entertaining. If they hadn’t had to give up their hosting spot last year due to the Special Olympics who knows! Man regionals are up their with March madness for me. Can’t wait!

No, you only have to beat the teams you face. As the number one seed, our path should be a bit easier than anyone else.
