So, probably more like 10:15-10:20. lol

All things considered, like the Hoosiers draw. Get after it and commit to a full 40 minutes, boys!

Would be better if Crean was coach (cue  @Uspshoosier Jeff Meyer celebration picture).

Geez so it won't be until well after 10pm in all likelihood. I may be an old geezer by now but that's awfully late to start a game. Hope the team is dialed in this week and staff has put a lot of thought into the routine for the week. Pumped about this bracket. Let's go IU!!!!!

You old geezers get you a good night's sleep Thursday, we can't have you falling asleep on us before our game starts Friday

Nope—adding to your excellent take

Overreaction on my part apparently. Purdue is losing regardless. We know that!

[Hoosier Guy]

Yep not surprised at all with the 9:55 tip. IU is the big draw that day. They want the revenue with the late night

Women’s draw at 8

2 straight years I missed on placing Rutgers.    Last year I had them out and they were in and this year I had them in and they were out.

Tried applying a lot of ideas that @Uspshoosierhas talked about in making my bracket this year.  Last year went totally with my WAR ratings, this year only looked at them for 'tie breaker' types of things.  Using the bracket matrix scoring system, last year I was around 320 and only beat a few of the veterans they list (USPS I think had a score that put him in the top 15%).  My bracket this year scored a 352, which when compared to last year's bracket scores would have put my 65th out of 148 of those who have been posting their brackets for at least three years.  About to do USPS's score....expect he will once again be higher than me and expect his will be near in the upper tier when compared to those on bracketmatrix.

Awesome job.   I had fun all year talking bracketology with you in here.   Good stuff

Purdud also draws a 16 seed that presses constantly. Too much to ask, but still, FDU is 100% the right style to compete as a 16 with Purdoooo.

PU the 1st 1 seed to lose to a 16 - now that would be like Christmas in March

Didn't that happen with UMBC over Virginia the year before Virginia won the whole thing?

[Uspshoosier]

IU’s first protected seed since 2013.   This is only the 4th time since 2000 that IU has earned a protected seed

Haven’t looked it up but don’t think a 1 has ever lost to a 16. Am i wrong?  I’m pretty sure

Respectfully, yes lol. 16 UMBC not only beat but hammered 1 UVA.
