RaceToTheTop Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Farleigh Dickinson lost to Pom #327 Sacred Heart (twice), #362 Hartford, #331 Stonehill, #340 Central Connecticutt, #308 St. Peter's, #314 Wagner, and #311 Merrimack. FDU didn't even actually win their conference tournament....Merrimack did, but because they are in their fourth and final year of reclassifcation jump to D1, Merrimack was ineligible for the tournament.

Happy as heck just hope this doesn't give them enough determination to come back stronger next year Sent from my SM-A326U using Tapatalk Virginia was probably the most improbable champion I've ever seen. It took a one in a million break for them to beat Purdue, another incredible break to beat Auburn, and then OT to win the title game. The problem with Purdue is that they now have a very well established track record of failing in March, and it predates a coach who's been there for nearly 2 decades. That can really mess with guys mentally, and I think we saw it tonight. hoosierbgh 1 Quote
Alford Bailey Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Can’t say I thought they’d lose to a 16 seed but you could see this coming after we won in Mackey. The Purdue guards crashed and burned. HoosierHoopster and hoopsta007 2 Quote
TheWatShot Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 In 13 of the last 15 tournaments, a 12 has beaten a 5. Drake-Miami is the last chance for it to happen this year. Quote

LamarCheeks Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 The year after UVA lost the 1-16 game to UMBC, they won it all. They needed a miracle win over -- Purdue -- in the Elite Eight during their run. Quote

But honestly I don’t think it’s a bug but a feature Hey the Big 1.o can claim something about highest attendance, most teams in, and some other nonsense while they continue to limit the league. hoopsta007 1 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 ESPN not showing minutes played but PUke's bench scored a grand total of 4 points. Quote

Josh Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 The Purdumpsters last three tournaments they lost to a 13 seed, a 15 seed, and a 16 seed lol Quote
FightFor6 Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Taking a break from laughing at PU, this Drake team looks legit. They have the makings of a 12-seed Cinderella. FortWayneHoosier and HoosierHoopster 2 Quote

FAU has a very big, very strong, pretty quick defensive 7 footer and on offense the spread the floor and shoot threes. And then a potential very hot Duke team?!? Oh goodness that’s a suck draw for Puredoo. On 3/12/2023 at 8:22 PM, Stuhoo said: 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. While in some societies it is considered impolite to bump oneself, I feel that the occasion calls for it.

RaceToTheTop Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 So that's what, losses to 13, 15, and 16 seed losses for Purdue in three straight years? At this rate, Purdue will either lose next year in the NCAA tournament to the loser of the 16 play in game. Quote
