She’s coming to his defense now.

Yes -- she's 'recanting' -- or at least softening -- and saying that she never wanted him arrested.  Unfortunately IF he did attack her, it's a very common response of a victim of domestic violence to change their story.

Maybe she forgot she had to marry him to get half(of Beard wasn't smart enough to have her sign anything.

Here is how teams with below .500 conference records have performed in the Round of 64. I didn't count a single play in game. Just 1st round and beyond. As you can see, from 2007-2017(including Arizona) only 12 teams made it. From 2018-2022 there have been 14.

....

 

Thanks for posting both lists.  Know what's amazing?  What is sticking out like a sore thumb is the Big 12 teams with under .500 records losing in the first round.  9 of the 13 teams from the Big 10, SEC, ACC, Pac 10 and Big East won their opening games.  The Big 12 teams, though, won only 2 of 10 opening games.  So the Big 12 won 20% of their openers while the others won 69% of their openers....so I can see why you posted about the Big 12 in particular.  Combined, all power teams were 11-12 in openers (48%).

 Non power conference teams were 30-33 in their openers (48%).

So the descrepancy doesn't seem to come in the opening games but rather that the non-power conference team that makes it past round one is more likely to continue winning.

Mizzou looking good so far. Man they play fast and free. 

Pshhhh… 

Missouri doesn’t look that good. But they play hard and Kentucky most certainly does not.

Why Kentucky is still ranked as an 8-3 hot mess is beyond me.

The same can be said about Indiana. 

That’s an incredibly stupid take.

Kentucky’s best win is home against a 7-4 Michigan team. Kentucky’s second best win is probably at home against Bellarmine. Edit: home against Yale.

Indiana’s second best win is on the road against a ranked team. That’s IU’s SECOND best win.

And Kentuckys 3 losses are against Michigan State in Indy in double OT, at Gonzaga by 16 and to UCLA by ten on a neutral court. Out losses are by 15 at a mediocre Rutgers where they treated us as Mizzou is treating UK right now. To Arizona who pretty much handled us with ease on a neutral court. And then made to look like a SWAC team at Kansas.
