UT should waltz to the sweet 16 - the Natti could put up a fight but I believe UT plays bully ball on them and wins
UK - ACU and then Wofford or the Hall. Wofford could get hot from 3 and cause some sweat but doubtful
LSU - The Yale game could be the highest scoring game in the 1st round. Both teams like to get up and down. Rebounding will be the difference unless the game is called super tight and we can't use our superior size inside.
Maryland would be the worst matchup for us in the 2nd round since they are similar to UF.
AU - I said in several threads AU would be a 5 win or lose today. but the draw isn't that bad. I think if y'all get past New Mex st. I believe you guys take KU out. Very winnable path to the sweet sixteen.
State - Love the 1st weekend draw State got. Liberty and V Tech. If State plays within themselves and doesn't turn the ball over I really like their chances to make the sweet 16
Ole Miss - Oklahoma is a very winnable 1st rd game and you should be favored. UVA is like UF on steroids and will give y'all fits.
UF - Nevada may be a tad under seeded but I'm really looking forward to this matchup. Still a winnable matchup. UM will be tough. They are probably the weakest 2 seed but still a ton of talent and experience.

There was a time when Zion was considering Wofford. How good would they have been with him. Sadly people would have thought the only reason they were good was Zion, but that aside. They could have been scary good.

Holy shite, no backhanded insults.
This is how this board should be all the time.

No he didn't. He may have said something to be nice but...

Amazingly the ESPN crew is interviewing Zion now and slobbering. No mention of the 900k house his family lives in or the $100k and job for Dad that’s on the FBI wiretap.

I agree with everything you have said.

Cincy can match the intensity of Tennessee but they can't score with Tennessee. Pencil the Vols into the Elite Eight.
Wofford is a good little team. Just not good enough to beat Kentucky. Like I said in the mega thread, if they would have got a 6 seed, they could have been trouble for a 3 seed like Houston. They will be likable, and they will scrap, but not this year. No reason they could not be a Southern Gonzaga though.
Yale can score, but they can't matchup athletically. Unless they break out the SAT, LSU will roll to the Sweet 16.
Auburn got a tough draw in my opinion. This is where we disagree. NMSU won 30 games. 30 game winners as double digit seeds have only lost one opening round game.NMSU is undervalued. Auburn can and should win, but this draw sucks.
State actually has a decent shot at the Sweet 16. Liberty lost to Vanderbilt. Virginia Tech is a lot like State - they can beat anyone and lose to someone they shouldn't.
Ole Miss will skull drag Oklahoma.
Nevada is overvalued but they are a decent team. Florida will have their hands full, but should win a close one.
7-0 opening round for the SEC is doable.

Only because Mike Young was the first to make him an offer and that was because Spartanburg Day is about 4 miles from the Wofford campus.

Where is the house?
And isn’t this easily traceable?
Why doesn’t the media do this?
I know, I’m naive.

The house in question is in Colvard Farms in Durham however the discussion of it all comes back to KyTomCat a UK fan on Twitter. Not exactly a smoking gun.
