Shortly after Florida Atlantic beat Kansas State, 79–76, in the Elite Eight to advance to the school’s first Final Four, Owls coach Dusty May had a simple message to the college basketball analysts who doubted the No. 9 seed.
“I expect the prognosticators to pick us fifth in the Final Four,” May said, via Action Network’s Brett McMurphy.
May is poking fun at the fact that few pundit and analysts expected FAU to make it this far in the NCAA men’s tournament, even though the team entered the Big Dance with an impressive 31–3 record.
