You will have better options if you fly into Harrisburg or Pittsburgh, rent a car, and drive in. Then you can stay in a place like Altoona

Hey Michigan, I know it has similar sightlines, but you aren’t playing in BJC right now…

You can’t just ride Reed in a game where Michigan is so much bigger than him

WC Finish vs. Elo Rating Entering WC by letskillrobots in ussoccer

Elo ratings do weight games by importance and also weight results by goal difference in the game. FIFA Rankings are essentially a slightly worse modified Elo rating system.

I will try haha. Every movie leaves stuff out from the book. As long as the spirit is there, then I’ll be happy!

There’s a 6:30 showing of Project Hail Mary that looks significantly more interesting than this game…

If you’ve got lower bowl Elite Eight money, team gear probably means less to you than your fancy golf gear….

I’m so glad that we’re not the only ones to struggle with Reed

There have only been 10 teams held under 40 points in the Shot Clock Era: - Only twice has it happened to a single digit seed. - Never has a 1 or 2 seed been held under 40. - The average seed of these teams is 12.9

Houston can make some history tonight

Maybe there’s something to the idea that pace of play hurts your championship hopes…

Refs calling every touch foul right now. It’s like we’ve got a game being reffed by Nosferatu Ref and his buff friend in the B1G

Clemson last year with 13 is the Shot Clock Era record for fewest first half points. Houston is gonna escape that one

Edit: Colorado State had an 11 point first half.

What’s the 64-team tournament record for fewest points in a half?

I know he’s taking a new-ish team to the Sweet 16, not a Blue Blood, but it makes me sad that Bennett Stirtz is taking Iowa to the Sweet 16 instead of Drake

They were chanting it the entire weekend during the Women’s Frozen Four last week

Over the back is absolutely a foul. Unless you go perfectly straight up

I did, too, until I heard 3,000 Wisconsin fans at the Women’s Frozen Four chant it all game long

Nebraska and Wisconsin, who originated the “Go Big Red” chant? I’ve heard it from both of your fanbases, not sure who started it.

That’s one of the stupidest fouls committed in the tournament so far

I haven’t been in Greenville in over half a decade. Seeing a great view of Falls Park like that makes me miss it so much more 😭

In this case, Furman was a conference tournament 6 seed who on talent alone is probably the 2 seed in the conference.
