Trigger warning – Sportball discussion. Today is Selection Sunday, arguably the best day of the year for college basketball fans, even if our teams suck. We will be doing a Turtleboy bracket challenge, and during the selection show I’m trying to go live with my buddy Tony Patelis from College Hoop News. Unfortunately I can’t message him on Twitter because I’m banned, so if you could tweet at him for me @CollegeHoopNews, and tell him to check his email, that would be great. If we got live it will be at 6 PM so subscribe here if you want to tune in. Every year I predict my field of 68 and last year I went 68 for 68, which Joe Lunardi has never done. Here’s this year’s field.
1. Duke, Gonzaga, Virginia, Tennessee (if they beat Auburn, if not UNC moves here)
2. UNC, Michigan State, Michigan, Kentucky
3. LSU, Houston, Purdue, Florida State
4. Villanova, Texas Tech, Kansas, Wisconsin
5. Iowa State, Auburn, Kansas State, Virginia Tech
6. Nevada, Buffalo, Marquette, Cincinnati
7. Maryland, Wofford, Louisville, Mississippi State
8. Syracuse, Washington, Minnesota, UCF
9. Seton Hall, Iowa, VCU, Utah State
10. Ole Miss, Baylor, Oklahoma, Florida
11. Oregon, Ohio State, Arizona State, St. John’s, Belmont, Temple
12. New Mexico State, Murray State, St. Mary’s, UC Irvine
13. Liberty, St. Bonaventure/St. Louis winner, Vermont, Northeastern
14. Harvard/Yale, Georgia State, Old Dominion, Northern Kentucky
15. Bradley, Montana, Abilene Christian, Colgate
16. Gardner Webb, NC Central, North Dakota State, Farleigh Dickinson, Iona, Praire View
A lot of people think they’re gonna pick 3 ACC teams as 1 seeds. I don’t see them passing up Tennessee if they win the SEC today, especially after beating Gonzaga and then Kentucky twice. UNC beat Duke twice but without Zion, which doesn’t really count. They lost to them in the only game that mattered. The bubble comes down to NC State, TCU, and Belmont. Belmont won at Lipscomb, TCU lost at home to them. NC State hasn’t beaten anyone good all season. They suck.
