with two Big Ten rivals that will be facing each other for the fourth frickin' time, and two SEC rivals that will be facing each other for the fourth time. And as Rebecca Lobo said, that's not beautiful basketball.
When you face a team four times in one year, it just doesn't typically lead to a great competition that's high-scoring, this beautiful basketball that we hope to see that helps expand and grow the game. I feel like the committee could have taken that into consideration. We said the same thing last year when we saw Iowa LSU would be in a lead eight matchup and not a potential final four matchup.

It worked out in the end, and we got UConn and Iowa. We got two of the biggest faces in the game playing each other. The ratings reflected it, as did the finals. But it just would have been nothing to swap those two, and I agree with her. I don't know.

Yeah. Yeah. Like there's there. Yeah. You build a little bit of that. And maybe you could say on one side that the committee says, well, we need these elite eight games to also have high ratings. Right. If you look at the bigger picture. So that is going to be a ratings bonanza, USC and UConn. But yeah, that's my point is that. I don't really know.

I'm with Lindsey Gottlieb and that like I would just love to just sit down and figure out what exactly they have to follow an S curve. There's things like that. There's a whole lot of other things that they have to do. They can't have conference opponents meet each other too early.

I get that they're dealing with a lot of metrics and it's not an exact science, but it just feels like it would be very easy to manipulate these just a little bit to the point where like no one would know. It could be their secret. They could keep it to themselves, but ultimately we get the matchups that we deserve.

Disgusting. I don't want your I don't want your dirty dog around food. Yeah. Why? Gross. And I know you're going to cook most of it, but like, no, especially the ones that like put them in a carrier.

I don't play fantasy football, but I have one million friends, and my husband's friends always try to talk to me about fantasy football. Here's what I'll say. The douchey ones are the ones that pretend like they just want to have a chat with you, but really they're trying to get intel for fantasy or for betting.
