March Madness has been reduced to MLB opening day levels

I still will never understand the logic of playing men’s finals on a Monday night.
Play a double header on Friday with your west coast schools on the late game. Maybe some west coasters will duck work a little early for early games. East coasters will have to stay up late for the late game, but they're already ****ing doing it for the finals. As if college kids aren't gonna stay up late, get drunk and skip classes on Tuesday Its stupid stupid shit. it can't even be for money because they have to be limiting their ratings with this. It seems like one of those dumb things that exists because it's always been done that way |

March Madness has definitely worn on me as well. Single Elim with the seeding mathematically designed to generate upsets. Theres just a crazy amount of luck and variance involved, it's once again hard to be invested. |

Give me chalk in rounds 1 and 2 and let me see the best 16 teams fight it out for the 'ship. I mean you look at the path that San Diego State had to the championship game last year - they beat one genuinely good team in that whole run. And it seems to happen that way every year. You have a team make the final 4 while playing what would amount to a poor conference tournament slate. I understand that's the appeal for many but man, it's just not my thing. It's become more and more apparent over the years that March Madness ain't for me. |

Hell, UConn was a 4 seed last season and played a 9 seed in the Sweet Sixteen (and same for KU when they played that shit Miami 10 seed in the Elite Eight a few years ago, and then an 8 seed in the NC). I enjoy some of the upsets in the early rounds, but it pretty much always goes too far where you end up with a decent amount of trash in the later rounds. |

So, you have better players and a good coach you'll win, right? Nope. And then you have a new team each year. No idea how to dix it but the game needs fixing. |

How is she any different than past women college hoopers? Not getting why she's a thread worthy discussion on a Chiefs board or ratings draw
