State plays EXACTLY how we all expect when it matters most

#16 Fairleigh Dickinson by 1 over #1 Purdue at the half.

Oh, no problem not like I picked Purdue to win the whole damn thing.

I'll be surprised if it lasts. FDUs roster averages 6'1", the shortest in D1. Purdues center is 7'4" and one of the favorites for national player of the year. I think it's just a matter of time.

For my brackets sake I hope so lol

I picked Purdue because I know they've been building a contender for years. Eventually they gotta go on a deep run, right?

Big 10 is overrated in most sports

But a #16 beating a #1 is so much fun!

Yeah, just not when it f***s my bracket lol

Sorry. But WOO HOO!!

Just heard that this is 3rd year in a row that Purdue lost to a double digit seed. #16 FDU, #15 St Petes, and #13 North Texas. Wow.

My E8 is still intact, baby!

Drake with the big choke

Funny story about FDU. They shouldn’t have been in the tournament. Merrimack won the bid but are still under probation for being a newer D1 program so the conference bid went to FDU

Penny Hardaway is one of the most overrated coaches in NCAAB

Him and Juwan Howard for sure.

Matt Painter has quickly turned Purdue into the Maple Leafs of the NCAA. Purdue is in a bad spot too. You aren’t likely to get a guy better than Painter at a school like Purdue but can you afford not to find out?

I work with a Purdue alum. Poor guy is going to need counseling after another tournament flop.

Furman’s coach was going to be a good candidate to go to a bigger school once the tournament was over. Now he is going to a top 5 name to move up to a bigger school.

I'm an Indiana University grad, so I can't help but smile. Though I don't hold out much hope of the Hoosiers doing well.

#15 Princeton up by 7 over #7 Missouri at the half.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Big 12 basketball is overrated.

SEC is showing up big time

 

[HisIceness]

Kansas did me a favor last year but it's a new season, and it wouldn't be March most years without an early Jayhawks exit.

 

[LakeLivin]

Two #1 seeds already out and #15 seed Princeton wins their 2nd game. Ain't March fun?

At this point my bracket is f***ed, so bring on the chaos!

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

so we are going to have one side of the bracket with a 2, 3 seeds, a 9 seed, and a 4 seed.

While the other side still has 2, 1 seeds and a 2 seed left in it.

I think K state is in the championship game at this point.

K State beats FAU
UCONN beats Zags (uconn has gotten quite the easy ride to FF over the last 20)

K State handles UCONN

Disgustingly Bama beats K State for the championship and weeks later "new evidence" comes around and Miller will be charged.

SDSU might do the college basketball a solid.
