1 team outside the Top 10 you dont want to see in March

[naslundfan19]

spread was only 5.5points.....not a massive upset

I know. I just don’t want to run into BYU again (outside of the WCC tournament) if possible. The way they shoot the 3 can beat anybody if they’re hitting.

Yep

Yep

I'm never a believer in the zags.

There's no way they'll meet in the NCAA tourney unless both get to the Final 4.

NCAA breaks up teams by conference and won't have two teams from the same conference in a region unless they are forced to. Especially if those two teams are top teams.

Yeah but Gonzaga is top 5, and you know they aren't winning it.

I know BYU is limited to 2 regions to play in because of the no Sunday play thing they have. So it might happen before the Final Four

who do you think will win it?

Just not Gonzaga. I'm with @mr.hockey4242 iys always a blue blood. Gonzaga is ranked high every year, close but no cigar.

if I was guess now.

obvious choices are Kansas and Baylor.

but there's 4 other teams I have eyes for .

kentucky, Louisville , seton hall, nova.

just me though.

I don't think Gonzaga wins it this year either. I thought the 2015, 2017 and 2019 teams were all better than this team. This team is still very good, but for some reason I think something is missing. I still get mad the 2017 team didn't pull it off. I thought they were the best team that season. Their depth on that team was insane. Guys in the nba didnt even see the court.

Interesting, I actually did not know that about BYU.

Believe it or not ... neither did the committee.

NCAA has plan to keep BYU from playing on a Sunday

Michigan St. They may not be having the greatest season ever, but DO NOT sleep on the Spartans. I'll admit, I have "fallen in love" with them on more than one occasion and they've gone out early, but I respect the shit outta Tom Izzo.

Yeah. Although Rui had just come over and was really raw then. Norvell redshirted with a knee injury too. In regards to this year, I think we miss Anton Watson more than people think. Having a versatile defender like him would be such a bonus.

Yeah. That injury really hurt the depth. It's a shame too.
