Vandy deserved better than a 5-seed. ⚓️
Coach Byington notes that even the analytics suggest @VandyMBB earned a higher seed, though the slight didn't change the team's preparation. However, nothing could prepare them for the atmosphere against Nebraska—it was so intense that Coach Byington kept receiving noise alerts on his phone.
"That was the loudest environment I’ve ever coached in."

Nebraska lost to only 5 teams this year on its way to a 28-7 final record. 4 of them made the Elite Eight.
NEB led their Sweet 16 game for like 37 minutes also. They belonged there.
Point is: all NEB fans have ever wanted was a relevant MBB team. It was.

Iowa committed only 1 foul in the second half. So I asked Grok how often this has occurred in NCAA MBB in the past 20 years.
Iowa did something very special. Like, very special.
