    Re: NCAA Selection Show

    Yikers. Not even being a downer here, realistically I think we lose by 20+.

      Re: NCAA Selection Show

      Selfishly, I was hoping to be in the play-in game that fed into Kansas who plays in Tulsa. Winnable first game and possible "quick" trip to Tulsa for me. Oh, well. Might as well go and try and make history.

        That's what usually happens to 16-seeds...... We would need a miracle whether we ended up 15 or 16. The Jacks have been playing with house money since the win in the opening round of the SLT. Go out there, get some press, have some fun and hope for a lot of luck.

          If we keep it within 37 then I wouldn't be as disappointed.

            I agree, but Gonzaga is an especially bad match up for us. I think the worst out of the top 4 seeds.

              We aren't a typical 16 seed. Catch a team overlooking us we've got a chance.

                  Ha, so USD can't claim they played them better than us?

                    I think UNC would have been worse. They've got an endless supply of post players. Depth at the post is by far our biggest weakness.

                      A challenge, Daum face off on the big bearded guy. What year did NDSU get this raw draw?

                        2015, had to play them in Seattle. We made them sweat a bit but their bigs were just too much. Dex played out of his mind, maybe Daum can go crazy but Karnowski is a beast.

                        I don't think it is a great match up but I'm not really sure what would have been a lot better. UND gets Zona who is also very tough.

                          A miracle win over the Zags and I love our chances against either of these teams. Don't know how Vandy got a 9 seed, they're not very good.

                            Daum prolly matches up well with Karnowski on the offensive end but not great on the defensive end. Gonna be a monumental challenge. Truly we will need Gonzaga to really stub their toe to have a chance.

                              The challenge is going to be keeping Daum out of foul trouble - you know the Zags will go right at him with the big man. If Theisen was healthier I would expect him to get some extended minutes, but even when healthy he has gotten in quick foul trouble against good post players.

                                Im guessing thats been everyone's strategy against us since we went man. Daum has done a remarkable job of staying out of foul trouble. I expect us to double hard on Karnowski to help keep Daum from picking up fouls.
