quick guesses without any thought. This would be a good Sporcle.

did bobknightfan put you up to this!?

did bobknightfan put you up to this!?

No. It actually shows that it's not something inherent about Wake that is the problem. Anybody can advance in the tournament.

 

[EagleDeac]

Not Maryland.

Let's start with just the ACC schools:

duke
unc
notre dame
nc state
Louisville
Boston College
Pittsburgh
Syracuse
Florida state
Miami
Virginia

That leaves the two Techs and Clemson in the same festering shithole as us.

 

[deacsrus]

OK. We suck.

[morrison2951]

how many different schools had 3 alums in this year's NBA ASG???

 

[PhDeac]

Davidson, Weber State, Gonzaga, UCLA, UConn Women.

We're arguably the worst on that list at least recently.

Who has the more bizarre fetish: BK for frog porn, or BKF for BK?

How many different schools have made the Sweet Sixteen since Wake did in 2004?

How many different schools have made the Elite Eight since Wake did in 1996?

How many different schools have made the Final Four since Wake did in 1962?

I'll go with roughly 30 to the FF, 63 to the EE and 77 to the SS.

 

[Shorty]

Davidson, Weber State, Gonzaga, UCLA, UConn Women.

We're arguably the worst on that list at least recently.

We'd be favored against Uconn women.

 

[HailToTheDeacons]

Too many.

 

[Biff Tannen]

We'd be favored against Uconn women.

Not without Madison Jones and Rountree, we wouldn't !

 

[DeacHead]

Might as well play along.

1. 90
2. 75
3. 105

Also, Georgia Tech is part of the group of 2 of these questions, so it's us and the land grant schools (minus NCSU)

How many different schools have made the Sweet Sixteen since Wake did in 2004?

How many different schools have made the Elite Eight since Wake did in 1996?

How many different schools have made the Final Four since Wake did in 1962?

I'll tell you if your answer is close.

To start the math, I'll take that as:


11 years beginning with 2005 (including 2015) of sweet 16's = 176 slots; 120 different teams
18 years (1997 - 2014 inclusive) of elite 8's = 144 slots; 100 different teams
52 years (1963 - 2014 inclusive) of final fours = 208 slots; 70 different teams

 

[Biff Tannen]

50. For all of the questions.
