I like our chances if we get past Nova to get to the final 4 but don't like our potential match up with Duke or KU.
I think TV is part of this "conspiracy." Duke and North Carolina are great for the ratings. The longer those two stay alive, the better the ratings. Or so TV hopes.

Not sure I would have posted that twice. Once was to much. Fear of an all B12 final 4. Wow.
He keeps going on about this. Its never happened in the history of the tourney and with the parity in today's game it will probably never happen.
When it's staring at you, it's hard to ignore. So why didn't the ACC teams get bunched into the same region while the Big 12 teams did. De facto segregation and protectionism.
You won't have to wait to sunday Kentucky will probably eat them for dinner on thursday.
No conference will ever put 4 teams in the final four with the parity that exists today.
well a 16 never beat a 1 before this year, so perhaps it could in theory happen. But to suggest the committee conspired to keep something that has never happened and has such a small chance of ever happening, is lunacy.
So, are you suggesting that the NCAA setup the tournament in hopes of getting an all ACC Final Four? If so, why would they have only placed a single team, an 8 seeded Virginia Tech into the East Bracket? Are you suggesting the committee thought Va Tech would run the table? There's nine ACC teams in the tournament - 2 in the South, 1 in the East, 2 in the West, and 4 in the Midwest. Would you prefer they place all 9 teams into one Region? Why even play the tournament? Just have the Big 10 tournament as the Midwest Bracket, the Big 12 tournament as the West Bracket, the ACC as the East Bracket, and the SEC as the South Bracket, mixing in some Big East and American teams. Makes sense, right?
Valid point a 16 beating 1 never happned before this year but the odds were greater of that happening then 4 teams from the same conference winning 4 games in the tourney. The conspiracy theory he throws out is total nonsense.
Yet you sadly and continuously post your trivial venom on a WVU board. think about that Nancy...
If Michigan plays like that the rest of the way, they will win the whole thing.
To be honest, this is one of those odd years where there's not a clear cut favorite. Anybody can beat anybody. I picked Duke to win it all, but would hate seeing them do so. I'm going with the three Big 12 teams tonight, along with Duke. I believe the WV-Nova game will go down to the wire. Purdue without Haas is an entirely different team, one that will struggle against TT's defense on the perimeter. Kansas and Duke should win handily. But then again, I may be wrong on all four games, based on how this thing is playing out.
I was just messing with you. I was concerned about A&M as well, but Coach JB put together a masterpiece last night on both ends of the court. Besides, you're one of the few on here that actually talk sports, while most are only concerned about their own personal status in life.
The truth doesn't change. And I'll be posting it again and again. With 4 of 12 March Madness survivors teams in the Big 12 it just looked so misinformed and silly to try to pretend that it isn't the best conference in America THIS SEASON. These things are cyclical but in 2018 Big 12 is #1 top to bottom.
I can't speak for all the Eers but I can speak for CFE. If Michigan wins then I would be happy for Beilein. If WVU wins then I would go crazy. And start torching my couch!
