Yeah I can see that. Honestly at this point, my money is on Loyola to get back. Which would be honestly shocking to think about a school like that making two FF's in 4 years. Similar to Butler, but even still more shocking because Butler had been in S16's and made a ton of tournaments before they got there.

Porter Moser got fired by Illinois State fourteen years ago. What a career turnaround.

This is School Like That’s 5th Sweet 16....
 
Oral Roberts and Oregon State combined for EIGHT Q3/Q4 losses and both are in the S16. Unreal. Oregon State lost to fucking Portland. Almost literally the worst team in D1.

Yeah but before the tournament run in 2018, Loyola last made it in 1985. Butler made 8 tournaments in the previous 13 seasons and 2 S16's prior to breaking through to the FF.

Loyola was a very good team in 2018 and obviously is very very good this year, but 2018 was out of nowhere as far as the program is concerned IMO.

Fair.

I would say, however, that this is neither a Cinderella run, nor an aberration (not saying you said either). It’s laughable they were seeded as low as 8.

Oh yeah, I'm not saying that either. I was just saying the first one came out of nowhere, based on where the program was(not that the team wasn't a capable team in 2018). Both teams would have been deserving of at large bids had they not won the mvc tournament. I do think this team is better than the 2018 team as well.

No doubt. 2018 was out of nowhere. Speaking of Butler, I remember when both Loyola and Butler were in the Horizon League. Come a long way.
 
I thought the beavers were going to stink but the beavers gashed the pokes. The cowboys couldn't find the hole in the end.

More of a statistical abberation. They've placed as many teams in the final 4 as anyone since 2000. They are definitely not earning kudos this tourney though
 
See, I was right. Only 3 B10 teams left....lol
