I think that the women's and men's Big Ten teams got the screw from the NCAA committee.
Purdue and Ohio St in the same semi bracket. MD an 8th overall seed w UCONN. How many teams have to go through the top seed before the regional final. Especially in the men's. No love this year from the NCAA tournies committees.
Don't think that's the case this year. There are several teams in their bracket alone that could beat them if the circumstances are right. The circumstances? Foul trouble, injuries and poor shooting. All three of those things happened against Tulane....the perfect storm.... and look what happened, we beat a team by 3 points that we crushed by 40 earlier in the season. Geno plays always plays a short bench in the tournament, but if foul trouble causes him to have to go deeper into the bench, we're in trouble. This is a fairly young team, who knows how they will react. Foul trouble is the biggest issue, though.
