march madness fun factz : SEC dominance edition

In many ways, Tennessee's emergence has run parallel to the Wildcats'. Like Kentucky, the Volunteers were always obviously talented. Like Kentucky, Tennessee's advanced analytics revealed a team far better than its record suggested. Like Kentucky, which beat Louisville on its own floor in December, the Vols' 35-point win over Virginia gave fans a result to point to and say, see? Like Kentucky, UT spent most of the SEC season underwhelming -- being swept by Texas A&M, losing to Vanderbilt, getting overrun on defense at Missouri -- before flipping some kind of switch in the final weeks.

The result for the SEC, combined with Florida's wins, is a 7-0 SEC record in the NCAA tournament. It's the first conference to go 7-0 or better in the NCAA tournament entering the Sweet 16 since the Big East went 8-0 in 2003, according to ESPN Stats & Information. The last time the SEC went 7-0 or better in the NCAA tournament entering the Sweet 16 was 1996, when Kentucky won the national title.

That was the dominant discussion late in the day Sunday -- how the lowly SEC had redeemed itself in the NCAA tournament. Some even went so far as to claim the SEC had been unfairly maligned, that the tournament revealed a league far stronger than anyone previously realized. (via)

turns out, we can haz basketball too.

UPSET ALERT

cincinnati, who i have in my final four, shit the bed.

UPSET ALERT

6-seed ohio state just lost in the first round. this upset should be particularly upsetting to sara jane, who has ohio state winning the entire tournament. #nevertrustohio #suckeyes #beatdayton

enjoy this completely revisionist account of the basketvols win last night.

they don't make much mention of how we were losing for nearly the entire game or how it went into overtime and how iowa basically gave up.

i think i'd prefer cuonzo leave the "just have fun" part out of his pre-game speech. BUT. a w's a w. i'll take it.

LAST CALL FOR ENTRIES!!

you don't want to be left out, do you? i think you have until 11.00am.

2PzNaPpod 2014 MARCH MADNESS BRACKET!!!!1111

as i write this, the basketvols are busy taking care of a little business (south carolina) in the SEC tournament. once that's over, they're most likely going to be playing in the NCAA tournament for the first time during coach cuonzo's tenure.

this sunday is selection sunday, and once all the teams are announced, it'll be time to fill out your brackets. we've set up a 2PzNaPpod group, and its completely free to join! #normcore

so go ahead and join our group now by clicking right HERE, and they'll send you an email reminder when it's time. (the password, if anyone asks, is "jazzykismet".) even if you don't know anything about anything, you're not going to want to miss out on this collective competitive experience. trust me.
