2016 Maui Jim Maui Invitational Bracket Unveiled

Pretty great field to say the least. A semifinal day of Wisconsin vs. Oregon and Uconn vs. North Carolina, would be some incredible basketball. Honestly wouldn't surprise me if Oregon, Wisconsin and UNC were all ranked in the top 10 and Uconn was in the top 15. Maui never disappoints with it's field and they have delivered once again.

Just realized there was a thread for this already.

That would be quite a win for Underwood in his first season if he were to beat Uconn. Jawun Evans and Phil Forte is an extremely dangerous back court. I loved the style of play he implemented at Stephen F Austin, I'm wondering if it'll be the same for Oklahoma State, my guess is he will.

Well, I needed to pick at least one upset and I'm not picking Georgetown anymore.

I also saw them beat Kansas last year.

This will be a cake walk for UW.

Welcome to the board.

Agreed about the Maui Invitational. Its great for College Hoops.

Great field this year. I think Isaiah Hicks becomes a prime time player for UNC this year.

 

[Great Dayne]

Reports are that Bronson "Klutch" Koenig has drastically improved his all around game from last season. I watched him in the firs fall exhibition game of red vs white and he was the leading scorer of the game and had 5 assists. He's the straw that stirs the drink and not Hayes. He's improved his ppg 5 points every year from 3 to 8 to 13 and now hopefully he can avg around 17 ppg and 4 ast per game. He has a good chance to go 40 50 80 with his FG, 3pt, and FT %'s. Their first game vs another team is this Sunday.

Look forward to this tourney every yr. battle 4 Atlantis is catching up but not there yet. Can't wait until tomo afternoon

This field looked better until Georgetown and UCONN started to actually play games this year lol

Same with Wisconsin and Oregon, although not nearly the bad losses Georgetown and Uconn suffered so far.

Yeah ill give the Ducks and Badgers a pass for now. Gtown and UCONN?? Yuck. Even UCONNS win was awful

Yeah Uconn's been brutal this year. Haven't played a top 100 team yet(projecting ahead) and they are only 1-2. Gtown's loss against MD was just as brutal. The loss against Arkansas State MIGHT look somewhat better at the end of the year.

 

[The Derski]

Badgers up 12-0 in the blink of an eye.

 

[Great Dayne]

The only team that doesn't have an ugly loss is North Carolina. Badgers should blowout Tennessee by 30 points. Walton is the worst announcer in the NCAA right now. Not even MJ or Pippen can cover Bronson???

 

[Great Dayne]

These refs are fucking ass. They're calling non fouls against Wisconsin and just one fucking foul vs Tennessee. WTF Badgers should be up by at least 20 minimum right now. Looks like we have to beat the refs and the team again.

You shouldn't be getting this worked up over a game in November, in a game the Badgers will win comfortably. Plus they've called 5 fouls on Tennessee, not just one.

 

[Great Dayne]

OMG Worst fucking game I've ever seen. How the fuck are these scrubs tied with us. This is embarrassing. This team isn't going anywhere this year. Turnovers, missed FT's, fouls, etc. These are all things the Badgers never used to do but are now common.
