I think Clemson will do well in the

Since only 1 team can win the tourney and the rest will lose, you're not exactly making a bold wager.
By the second round. That good for you tater?
As a Gamecock fan, it's hilarious.
Objectively, it's a head scratcher. Clemson had a few bad losses (one courtesy of us) but how the heck did NC State get in? Clemson beat them 3 times by 14, 25 and 26 points and was 2 games ahead of them in the ACC standings. And Clemson had a better record against Quad 1 teams.
The moral of the story is the same every year: unless you make your resume airtight, you may not be happy with the result on selection Sunday.
I'm actually more pleased about UNC. First preseason #1 to get left out since the field expanded to 64. That's pretty rough.

Those North Carolina teams always get bias from the selection just like big ten states.
clemson’s snub by the committee is honestly very similar to what’s happened to us multiple years.
I’m laughing that clemson is out, but it really doesn’t make sense how NC State still got in like you pointed out
So I was correct, thank you for pointing this out to the rest of the posters on this thread.
Go back and read my post, slowly and carefully. Picking a low seed to loose was not exactly a bold prediction.
But keep thinking you some kind of savant if that gets you through the day.
Clemson was a 1 seed. Even in the title it says op thinks they will do well. I said they loose. Then your captain obvious post. Then Clemson loses. Keep thinking that peice of paper you got from Harvard makes you smarter if it helps you sleep at night.
I like the way you spelled "piece". Classic.
Sorry you got your feelings so easily hurt.
I predict UAB will knock them out in the second round, if I read my NIT bracket correctly, LOL
Looks like my dog about to throw up.I predict UAB will knock them out in the second round, if I read my NIT bracket correctly, LOL
You spelled "lose" like "loose". I noticed but normally don't correct people's spelling because it's a sports board. But then you went and did it to someone else.
Interesting....you just joined yet you personally attack members of this board that have been members a long time. Often that means that you are a fan of another school trying to masquerade as a Gamecock fan or that you were kicked off for poor behavior before and created a new handle and jumped right back into attacking other posters. Not exactly wise either way.
State would beat clemson 7 outta 10 but they didn’t play but the three. ~DABO
I've been around since atleast 2008, the rivals site. You can call me a tater, am not, and I'll just laugh. This place is so coddled. And @Harvard Gamecock called me out.

You call it "coddled", I call it decorum. And you did make a very safe prediction....a little clarification would have solved that. That is not making ad hominem attacks...it is simply questioning your position or argument.
I did say in 2 games. As a 1 seed usually doesn't happen so my bet was a risky one. He did not take the bet.
Decorum. On the internet. C"mon man.
You clarified that after he made his comment about how risk averse your prediction was.
As far as betting, that's a personal issue. I don't bet....ever (never even played the lottery) so I wouldn't have taken it either.....everyone is different when it comes to betting.
Back to the ad hominem attacks......at least I'm in good company with @KingWard and @Harvard Gamecock. I'm done with this "debate."
In all spheres of my life, I know who my friends are, and my friends are top notch.
