2017 Postseason

I'm going to try something different and take care of the entire postseason with 1 report, kind of like I do in my Interactive Player Dynasty. This will just be easier.

We have 7 teams playing in the postseason, and no feature games, so this will be a quick report as I'm only covering those 7 teams.

Michigan State (Al Mighty) -- 29-7, 14-4 Big Ten.

3/16/17- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (16) UL Lafayette (W 86-39).
3/18/17- NCAA South Region Second Round vs. (9) Valparaiso (W 67-57).
3/24/17- NCAA South Regional Semifinal vs. (4) BYU (L 88-83).

Definitely didn't see the Spartans bowing out so early in this one. A complete shocker, but at least they made it to the Sweet Sixteen this season, something they didn't do last season.

Hawaii (B.B. Gunn) -- 17-15, 12-4 Big West.

3/14/17- CIT First Round at (3) Bucknell (L 74-72).

Good effort for the Warriors, but they fell just short against a tough Bucknell squad. An overall disappointing season comes to an end.

Norfolk State (Payten Carrano) -- 19-15, 11-5 MEAC.

3/14/17- NCAA First Four vs. Alabama State (L 89-62).

Apparently the Spartans used everything they had against NC Central, because they just did not show up in this one against Alabama State. They'll be happy with a 2nd straight NCAA appearance though.

Stanford (Benito Sanchez) -- 25-11, 11-7 Pac 12.

3/15/17- NIT South Region Quarterfinal vs. (7) Northeastern (W 81-52).
3/20/17- NIT South Region Semifinal vs. (3) Western Michigan (W 79-67).
3/23/17- NIT South Region Final at (8) Robert Morris (W 98-77).
3/28/17- NIT Final Four vs. (1MW) Memphis (W 72-62).
3/30/17- NIT Championship vs. (4W) Washington (W 70-67).

The Cardinal played with a chip on their shoulder throughout the NIT, and they were not to be denied! Although they would have rather been in the NCAAs, they can take some pride in knowing they are 1 of only 4 teams to end their season with a win. Congrats Coach Sanchez!

UCLA (Tim Shepard) -- 32-3, 17-1 Pac 12.

3/17/17- NCAA West Region First round vs. (16) Alabama State (W 129-72).
3/19/17- NCAA West Region Second Round vs. (8) Iowa State (L 75-55).

Tough game for the Bruins against Iowa State as they just couldn't get it going. Still a heck of a season, but they'll be disappointed that it ended a few games earlier than expected.

Florida (Noah Oppenheimer) -- 25-9, 13-5 SEC.

3/16/17- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (9) Valparaiso (L 68-60).

Sure wasn't expecting the Gators to lose in the First round, I figured they'd at least get by Valpo. Still a pretty good season, but not as good as they wanted.

Kentucky (Patrick Hutt) -- 26-9, 13-5 SEC.

3/16/17- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (10) Indiana (W 97-90).
3/18/17- NCAA South Region Second Round vs. (2) North Carolina (L 83-79).

The Wildcats got a really tough draw here, having to go up against the Tarheels in the Second Round. By all accounts, a disappointing season. Kentucky expects to be in the Final Four every season, and to not even make it to the Sweet Sixteen is a disaster for such a storied program.

That takes care of the 2017 Postseason, I'll start working on the Postseason Recap probably tomorrow.
