Duke will play Wisconsin in the East regional final (Elite Eight)

I've got Duke, Oregon, Wisconsin to the Sweet 16 to take on Alabama. And then I am going to take in a rematch of the 2015 national title... Duke over Wisconsin in Newark to go to the final four.

Duke played Alabama in the Elite Eight, not Wisconsin. Wisconsin was eliminated in the second round by BYU. Duke beat Alabama 85-65 in the Elite Eight.

The NCAA Tournament bracket reveal is the best non-sporting sporting event of the year

I actually think that this is the best non-sporting, sporting event of the year. I think that bracket reveal is the best sporting event that does not actually contain sports of the year. Oh, it's, it's incredible.

UNC getting into the tournament over West Virginia and Indiana is a result of committee member Bubba Cunningham being the UNC AD

UNC got into the tournament with one quad, one win. And Bubba Cunningham, who is part of the selection committee is also the ad at UNC. What I would say to that is that doesn't fucking matter at all [that he recused himself] because you spend an entire weekend hanging out with this people... Everyone in that room has to decide on UNC and then have him come back in the room and he's gonna be like, so how we looking?

The NCAA selection committee stopped working on Friday night

The committee. It's very clear they stopped working on Friday night. Maybe that's why Leonard's been sleeping because it makes no sense that UNC is in this tournament. It makes no sense that Michigan got a five. It makes no sense that Louisville got an eight.

TCU will beat Ohio State and push Duke in the round of 32

I am taking Jamie Dixon and company [TCU] to beat [Ohio State]. I think they could push Duke. I don't think they'll beat Duke obviously in the round of 32. But... I like TCU to beat Ohio State and pull a little game pressure on Duke.

The tournament has not occurred yet.

UCLA will struggle in the tournament due to their poor rebounding and issues outside the Pacific Time Zone

UCLA has not played well out of the Pacific Time Zone. UCLA... has been such a poor rebounding team and it's at such a hole in the middle that Tarris Reed would be a tough matchup.

Pending — UCLA's first-round game has not been played yet.

The South Region is the 'Region of Pressure'

This is the region of pressure. Now why is this the region of pressure? There's pressure on Florida to win a national championship... pressure on Nebraska to win an NCAA tournament game for the first time ever.

This is a thematic label and cannot be proven right or wrong.
