I deserve credit for Virginia reaching the Elite Eight because I guaranteed they would make it

I actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I deserve some credit, don't I? Because I guarantee that Virginia will get to the Elite Eight at least. I put them on my back. I believe in them.

Fact Claim CBB Medium

Big Cat did indeed pick them to make the Elite Eight, and they did reach it (and eventually won the title).

The Purdue vs. Tennessee game was the best game of the tournament so far, second only to Duke

Matt Painter, you have slightly less of a stupid face, and I'm going to say some nice things about Purdue, but that [Purdue vs. Tennessee] was the game of the tournament other than the Duke game.

Opinion CBB Mild Subjective

The 2019 tournament had several classics (including Virginia-Purdue and Duke-UCF), so while subjective, this was widely considered one of the top games.

Tennessee should not be allowed to wear their Indiana-style warm-up colors

My big takeaway was the Tennessee uniforms. They should not be allowed to wear those pants and those warm-ups and those colors. Those are Indianas. Those are Indianas.
