Wisconsin scraped together thr materials for a 3 seed, but at no point in the season were they ever thought of as a threat to do anything. they overachieved right up until the end.

Iowa wasnt seeded as a top 16 team so their absence isnt shocking.

and Illinois lost to the team that Michigan needed a Hail Mary buzzer beater to beat the last time they went to the Finals in 2018. SHIT. HAPPENS.

well if ppl on TV are saying it then it must be true! its not like they are ever trying to troll people into paying attention to them or anything!

not all. Michigan was one clean Franz Wagner look from 3 from making another Final 4.

lol nobody thought that about either OSU or Illinois except you.

how do teams underperform in the regular season playing each other?

it most certainly does NOT reflect that, and you should learn how punctuation works.

again, im not sure who youre talking about but Purdue and Michigan are right where they are supposed to be.

Miami and Iowa State represent the only two "3rd teams" from any conference in the sweet 16 and they are double digit underdogs.

take those teams out youre left with

Duke/UNC
Arizona/UCLA
Michigan/Purdue
Kansas/TTU
Providence/Villanova
Gonzaga
Arkansas
Houston
St. Peters

all looks right with the world from where im standing.
