Wouldn't be the first time.

Just tired of losing in the tourney. We got robbed on seeding tho (unlucky, I guess)...

We got robbed in hindsight, but TBH, UCLA was seeded correctly

Barcello played a great game! I feel like most of those shots were his

It was BYU who shot that well (mostly Barcello on those shots)

Haha. Yeah I kept telling my BIL I'd be happy to give them deep two's all game

Couldn't handle UCLA's defensive pressure and it messed with offensive rhythm

IIRC, we went on about a 10-0 run to cut it to 4, but then UCLA went on about an

Glass half full: As good as they were, they could never bring the hammer down

I felt we played our worst 60 minutes of basketball in the last 1.5 games

Got it down to 4 in the 2nd half

True. Forgot about that. Still never felt like we were in it, but it was closer

They lost in the Final 4 to Gonzaga in OT. I’m not upset we lost at all

It's just a little frustrating.

Compared to expected wins (based on seeding), we're ... not good

Which statistically speaking is a HUGE difference, i.e. 5 vs 8+

If you break that down to 2001-2009 and 2010-present, it shows a stark

UCLA was a top 4 team in the tourney. Like losing to Bama in football.

Worst team in the whole tourney? Ya...keep your takes to yourself.

Your issue should be less with BYU and more with the WCC.

Ned Schneebly

1000x this point; the WCC has made so many concessions to Zaga and it hurts us

If the seeding were reversed, I would have been ok with it.
