Woke up to some incredible news this morning, I am once again the #1 Bracketologist in the world!
Huge thank you to @bracketproject for all the time and effort they put in to track this throughout the year, and to each of y’all who have followed along with me on this journey!
@realitycheck_77@PSGINT_ Europa League impact on coefficient is pretty close to UCL impact though, so if Milan and Juvy go ham in the Europa League that could keep Italy in 2nd.
MARCH MADNESS!
Duke exits the tournament for a 2nd straight season on the wrong end of yet another improbable finish.
Despite staring down a 15 point halftime deficit, UConn stormed back to take the last spot in the Final Four, on the back of a late steal and DEEP 3 by Mullins.
@ant_twig@DiscussingFilm@JetCine Apparently the whole movie was already filmed, but this guy accidentally deleted it so filming is starting over again.
The first 1 seed goes down!
After blowing a 12 point lead Iowa could’ve let Florida run away with it, but the Hawkeyes managed to hang around until the end and pulled off the upset with a late Folgueiras three.
Iowa will take on Nebraska next for a trip to the Elite 8.
The buzzer is finally beaten!
Despite letting KU come back from a deficit that was once as large as 14, St. John’s still had one last chance to seal victory, and Darling took it to the rack as the clock hit zeros to do just that.
Red Storm on to their 1st Sweet 16 under Pitino.
GAME OF THE TOURNAMENT??
Nebraska beats Vanderbilt in a back and forth classic, and after winning their first ever tournament game, win another for a trip to the Sweet 16!
And Vandy nearly even stole it at the end with a half court heave that was half way down.
Once again, a First Four team is heading to the Sweet 16! Texas finished both halves by shooting lights out and took down Gonzaga.
A bubble SEC team may not be a typical Cinderella, but the slipper fits for the Longhorns nonetheless!
Kentucky over Santa Clara in another tourney classic!
After the Broncos took a late lead on a Graves 3, Oweh answered for the Wildcats with a DEEP buzzer beating 3 to force OT.
UK went on to win in overtime on the back of some clutch blocks by Brandon Garrison.
What a game. 🔥
VCU COMES BACK!
The 11th seeded Rams storm back from 19 down to knock off 6 seed North Carolina in an overtime classic!
Cinderella? Maybe. But VCU is also just a legitimately very good team.
@DYorkeRP@JonFendler I mean it’s relevant because Gonzaga lost to them instead of blowing them out. Miami (OH) got in because they avoided a bad regular season loss like that, which indeed, is hard to do.
