The best time of the year is upon us as the madness is beginning as we enter mid-March with all of the power 5 conference tournaments about to get underway. The craziness will continue until the end of March and I am all here for it.
It is going to be another year where the number next to each team's name DOES NOT matter. The regular season and the NCAA tournament are two completely different seasons from one another. Once your team makes the tournament, they start off fresh and have the same record as everyone else, 0-0.
We saw it last year with the record amount of upsets taking place and I believe that trend will continue into 2024. In 2023 we had a 4 seed, two 5 seeds, and a 9 seed in the Final Four. Now it might not get as crazy as that, but expect there to be some chaos because there is always chaos in March.
I believe it is going to come down to the team that is able to knock down the three pointer at a high percentage and play above average defense as well. Being able to combine these factors is what it is going to take to survive in this tournament and if you can do one but not the other then your stay in March will be short lived.
We saw a #16 seed upset a #1 seed and a #15 get all the way to the Sweet Sixteen last year along with many other surprises. If this tournament is anything like last year's, buckle up because the madness is about to ensue.
