Germanshepherd Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 I cannot believe that we have a Final Four where the highest seed is a four and the combined total of seeds is 23. Add into that a 16 and a 15 winning, three first time final four finalists (including two mid majors) and I gotta ask– Greatest Tournament Ever? 4 Quote i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said it earlier, and I'll repeat it here: 2023 March Madness is the CBB equivalent of CFB's 2007 season, where doggone South Florida managed to jump to #2 at one point and freaking KANSAS...KANSAS...had a shot at the natty (only to lose that shot to Missouri...who themselves also had a shot at the natty). I'm gonna laugh from a hearty healthy place is Miami and Florida Atlantic meet in the title game. (Home-state pride thing, haha.) I 100% don't expect it to happen, though.

It's their title to lose. hey, with all due respect, can you shut up for like five minutes? yes, we all know UConn is very likely to win the natty and spoil the party, but that hasn't happened yet, so can we stop treating it like an inevitability and enjoy the Cool Zone we're currently in? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueYankee26 Posted March 27, 2023 Author Share Posted March 27, 2023 This Final Four brought to you by NIL and Transfer Portal. THE GAME HAS CHANGED. First Elite 8 w/o #1 seed, and only one #2 seed making it to the Elite 8. Three teams making their first Final Four appearance for the 1st time since 1970. First Final Four without any Top 3 seeded teams. Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ratings might not be as bad as you think. San Diego State-Florida Atlantic being the under card here makes for a compelling match-up: The Owls' sharp shooting from three point range against the battle tested Aztec D. Miami and UConn is the main event: The Huskies are the highest seeded team left and are also the only team here with a national championship under their belt. Miami is riding high after coming back to defeat Texas... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinsUp1214 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 I have to say, there’s a part of me that’s really happy to see SDSU in the Final Four. I remember as a kid in Utah watching Mountain West Conference sports all the time, something like the Final Four always felt really distant for the conference (Utah had been in the WAC during thier ‘98 run). For the Aztecs - one of the conference originals - to finally break through and represent the Mountain West in the Final Four is pretty big, and it’s really cool to finally see it happen. If I had to choose one team to root for next weekend and the following Monday, it’d be for the Aztecs to win one for the old Mountain West. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Man, what a ride it's been. I don't think I've been that nervous watching a sporting event since Game 7 of the '09 Stanley Cup Final. I know the odds are stacked against us, but it just seems like a "Team of Destiny" thing right now. Only next weekend will tell, but damn, does it feel amazing to make it this far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
