UConn will repeat as National Champions

I've got Yukon out of the region of Gladiators... I like Yukon over Purdue, Clingan against Edey, a Battle of the Titans in the title game, and Yukon led by Dan Hurley... becoming the first back-to-back national champion since Florida in 2006 and 2007.

UConn did indeed win the 2024 National Championship, beating Purdue in the final.

The 2024 NCAA Tournament committee is a bunch of sick perverts

Someone in that committee is a real sick pervert... The Pardon My Take region. It wasn't just that they had to put me versus PFT Wisconsin versus James Madison in the first round. They also put Vermont and Duke in the same quadrant.

This is a subjective opinion about the committee's motivations.

UVA getting into the NCAA tournament is a disgusting decision

The sickest thing they did was put UVA in. Yeah, that's disgusting. UVA. So you should be ashamed of yourself.

Virginia played in the First Four and lost 67-42 to Colorado State in a game widely mocked for being uncompetitive, validating the 'disgusting' take for many fans.

James Madison will reach the Sweet 16

I have the JMU Dukes, I have James Madison winning two games.

James Madison beat Wisconsin in the first round but lost to Duke in the second round, failing to reach the Sweet 16.

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.
