I don't know anything about this SLU UGA matchup (or any game for that matter), but SLU administering a can on the Dawgs.

I don't see it as that big of a deal.  Historically #11's win the 6/11 match-up 38.75% of the time so roughly twice in five attempts.  That is just as good as #10's and the #12's are almost as good at 35.63% which is still better than one out of three.  

To me anyway, upsets don't really get my attention until you get to the 4/13, 3/14, 2/15 and 1/16 levels.  

Upsets (by seed) so far:
  • #12 High Point over #5 Wisconsin - 12 over 5 happens a little better than 1/3 of the time.  
  • #11 VCU over #6 UNC and #11 Texas over #6 BYU - 11 over 6 happens roughly 40% of the time.  
  • #10 aTm over #7 St. Mary's - 10 over 7 happens roughly 40% of the time.  
  • #9 TCU over #8 tOSU and #9 St. Louis over #8 UGA - 9 over 8 actually happens MORE than 50% of the time.  #9's are 84-76 in the first round.  

I don't think I'm missing any.

Feels like shitting on winners while championing mediocre teams from power conferences is a real losing position today
Apparently you missed aTm over St. Mary's?

Josh Schertz was who I wished OSU hired, even though I knew it wouldn't happen. Maybe he'll get on OSU radars if St. Louis beats Michigan.

WCC Regular Season Championship.  Granted it was a co-Championship but they split with Gonzaga (both won at home) and also lost at Santa Clara while Gonzaga had the split with St. Mary's and also lost at Portland.
