Yes.
Give me that sweet 8 Rutgers v 9 Virginia kinda matchup.
And then something like Ohio State v Auburn.

Re: NCAA 19-20
Some weaker power teams I recall playing are like NC State, Seton Hall, UConn, Clemson, a bad Michigan State team, Illinois, UNC in Kansas City.
I like those.

Re: NCAA 19-20
I know we do seem to do better against big schools. I don't know if that's supported by results over time or just perception formed by some of our losses against smaller schools. They've (power 5 schools) got more talent that the smaller schools, so part of me wonders if we aren't better against smaller schools this year. Not that anyone can stop Dok, but the mid major type schools with nobody over 6'7 really have no chance against him.
I don't really care who we play this year honestly. I don't think it's a match up issue no matter what. If we play well for 6 games we are hanging another banner.

Re: NCAA 19-20
We have also beaten a shit-ton of smaller schools. Way more than we've lost to.
It is that the middle of the pack or bubble-team like power schools have big warts that Bill and a complete team can easily expose.

Re: NCAA 19-20
You have a better feeling of how good/bad those 8/9 seeded power 5 schools are.
A 8 smaller school with a stellar record is harder to gauge, so it's more of a wild card.

Virginia beats Duke!
That means Duke should move up a couple of spots in the polls, right?

We were already. No one took the couple clowns seriously who voted for Baylor over KU right after KU beat Baylor.

Re: NCAA 19-20
If we have a tournament where Dayton, Gonzaga, and SDSU are all 1 seeds - Is that a good thing?
